Biggest yorkshire derby of the season though, so it is expected I get my ticket sent to me automatically as im a away season ticket holder, however phoned up this morning to get a ticket for a mate at about 10ish and got through no problem, 2nd in the que!

Im quite happy never playing burnley again to be honest. As for the draw, Brentford/Hartlepool at home will be good enough for me as it SHOULD be a good route into the quarters.

2-0 Rovers. Attendance 11,000

He's handed in a transfer request. What other info do you need? A simple no would have sufficed. Eh? Can you explain how Ferguson handing in a transfer request means he wants to play for us? Now Now you two, lets not fall out

Im pretty sure the away end at ninian park is seating now, with terracing right next to it for the home fans. I can see this game being selected for live coverage by Sky or the BBC.

We always get sent the more expensive catagory.

Man City fans are paying £38 to go there in a few weeks. I imagine that it'll be the same price for us.

Cant think why i would be included in this....

Im another who wanted to vote Ripley but have decided to vote for Douglas. Just because i never saw him play doesnt mean i can ignore his history with us. Sounds an excellent player wish i had the chance to see him play.

Remember visiting a couple of pubs that were very close to the ground last season. No idea what they were called though !

At Southampton away this season a few of us were stood up at the back of the stand and were promptly asked to sit down, a couple didnt and after a few warnings were threatened with being ejected. However right next to us there must of been a good few hundred southampton fans stood up throughout the whole game, from what we could gather they never seemed to get asked to sit down at all. I have no problems with sitting down at all but surely it should be the same for both sets of fans. When asking the stewards why they were allowed to stand for the whole game and why we wernt they just simply said "there steweded by a different company to us so theres nothing we can do about it" Sounds similar to saturday at Ewood only the other way around! Makes you wonder.

Yep, the attendance for that game was 16,922 and you're probably about right with your estimate for how many Rovers fans were in the west stand that night. I think we took around 6,500 to 7,000 Rovers fans. Considering there was only 17,000 crowd we made up almost half the supporters in that night. Continuing this away following thread, how many did we take to Manure in the league cup semi and Sheff wed semi? Probably about 4000 maybe 5000 to each. I would have thought that for the United game we had about 6k and abut the same at sheff wed - wasn't the ticket and travel inclusive for £10 for that match? Think our allocation was 7000 for the Utd match. 3000 of which were in the normal away end, we didnt sell any of these. We just about filled the upper tier of the stand behind the goal. For the sheffield wednesday game we filled the upper tier which is about 3700 according to the football fans guide ive got. There was a few scattered about in the bottom tier but there couldnt have been another few thousand in there. I think the travel was free yes.

I have 3 mates who are Liverpool season ticket holders and they all went to the game today. They got charged £40, The same as us.

Being rested, Obviously.

I wish everyone would calm down. Press confrences always end up running late.

Not really, Its ticking at the same speed as it does every other afternoon.

We need a manager with experiance, time to look to the future. Not the past.

Same sentiments to most people on here really, Shocked and slightly disapointed. Thanks Souness, For the most part you did an excellent job for us. Some interesting candidates for the job, My prefered choice would be either Gordon Strachan or Mark Hughes. Should be an interesting week or so though.

I think everyone knew that anyway.

I dont think we will replace him. I think more will be expected from Matt Jansen this season as a result of this. Come on Matty this is YOUR season!! By the way, Thanks for the memories Andy, I for one am dissapointed to see you leave but as many other board members have said... Time to move on
