Pretty confident about this one. Rovers 2 Reading 0. Looking at the ticketing website, seems like the £10 promotion for this one has gone down like the lead balloon everyone predicted.

I take it back, looks like we have asked for the extras!

True. They do have such a good track record of fan relations and communicating over the past decade after all.

The club aren't particularly bothered about going the extra mile for the fans though, seen enough evidence of that. I bet it hasn't even registered that there might be more tickets available,

Going off Rovers latest tweet it doesn't seem like we're going to ask for any more tickets.

Anyone who has watched football could see that result coming. There were quite a few on here who thought we only needed to turn up to win because "they are 16th".

Like i said earlier in the thread i'm around 10 miles from Stoke, and it's like a summers day here now.

Still waiting for Gregg to come out and tell us exactly what happened like he said he would.

Yeah, because there you can't segregate that stand Rovers will have to commit to paying for them all, so any that get sent back unsold means the club will be out of pocket.

Doesn't look like it according to the below.

I'm about 10 miles from Stoke and seen nothing yet, although the forecast is bad for tomorrow here for snow, with a lot of rain mixed in later on. I would be suprised if it was off to be honest.

Remember when someone posted on this thread about how they hope Szmodics breaks his leg one day? Presume that post got deleted. I think he has been superb last few games, still not convinced he will do it over say 10-15 games but happy he is in the side and doing well.

Sends a terrible message if Dack, Diaz or Kaminski come straight back into the team when fit. Like JRC at right back, Szmodics, Dolan, Gallagher & Pears have the shirt until there form starts to dip again.

The minute you start to think you have cracked it in this league something will bite you on the backside. More concerned about these than playing sheffield utd again. This game has developed into my "burnley" in recent years as I only live 12 miles away from there and everyone around me supports them. Stoke 1 Rovers 0

Genuinely thought this would be a game too far for our lads after Tuesdays effort but love being proved wrong. Battled superbly as a team and played some good stuff at times. Didn't really think Sheff Utd troubled us.

It could move again to the Wednesday night if we beat Sheffield Utd and draw Man Utd in the Semi Final as that would have to be a Sunday due to Man Utd (probably) being in Europe on the previous Thursday.

Where would you have moved it too?!

Nothing really stopping them coming over for the afternoon without tickets and causing chaos is there?

The final should definitely be Saturday 3pm, it's competing with nothing going on at that time and people from up north can get home on public transport on the same day instead of incurring hotel costs etc.

As good as we have been over the last few weeks, i just think this is a game too far for our lads unfortunately, especially with them resting the majority of there first teamers on Wednesday night. Rovers 0 Sheff Utd 2

I imagine Sky will get hold of that Arsenal game and show it live now that there two games they were showing that day aren't happening.

It's the two week international break after the game so i imagine they will go full strengh as possible against us.

Well it won't be the Friday night as both us and Sheff are playing on the previous Wednesday, and it won't be on the Monday night as that's the start of the international week. I also doubt rail strikes will come into it as they couldn't care less how the fans get there.

The hearing is today isn't it? Probably a verdict by the end of the week I'm guessing.

Think we all know the answer to that one!
