Barnsley (H) - Play-Off 1st Leg

[Whitesince63]

To be fair to sell 20k tickets when the games live on Sky is to me terrific so if Barnsley bring their 2k it should be a cracking atmosphere tomorrow. I’m hoping Posh do a job on Wendies tonight and I actually think they will. Just as an aside, in the Barnsley Chronicle tonight Gerry Taggert wants Barnsley to win the tie. Cheers Tag. 🤨

[radcliffe white]

And folk think we would take 30k with a weeks notice to Wembley

I don’t think we would be far off. I know where you are coming from but the fan base have been tremendous the last 2 seasons really backing the team.

I am surprised how few tickets we  have sold at £20 per ticket on a Saturday afternoon. 
With Wembley costing twice as much , plus travel not sure why people think we will sell an extra 50% if we reach the final

Driving tomorrow, what's the best bet parking wise these days? Don't mind a bit of a walk

Get on the retail park; free but hard getting off

[auckland_bwfc]

Fancying this now. Reckon Ian will have primed and ready. We've got the bottle and the players. Come out fast and hard. Make them think about us. Predictions, 2-0. Dion n Bradley. Madri cup to leak out of its ass in the ground

If it is first time you have driven then register with Parking Eye and it is free first time you park. Park near coaches at top and although it ain't quick you get away ok.

Does anyone know if the match day buses are running tomorrow? You d think so with the train strike but can’t see anything on the website

If getting away relatively quickly is the issue... St Joseph's secondary school on chorley new road do parking for £4. 

I'd assume it's easier to get off than the retail park but is probably 10 mins walk from the ground.

When it's full it takes ages too

Aye but we have consistently sold 25-30k for all of our Wembley and Cardiff trips over the years and I expect we’ll be around top end of that again. Anyway, Barnsley will be very hard to get past so we may not need to worry.

When W63 predicts something normally the opposite happens.

[Lostock Whites]

Think it's worth noting that the 24,000 or whatever is there tomorrow is miles more impressive than the 24,000 Vs Cambridge, one being more expensive tickets but two, there will actually be 24,000 or so there tomorrow and not season ticket holders included that didn't turn up.

The stadium will be as full as it's been for a long long time 

[Jayjay23]

I'm gutted I can't go. 

My dad and uncle both can't go and my brother and cousin both can't go. 

That's five of us missing who would normally be there. How have to be a TV job. 😭

Agreed. It’ll be equivalent to a ‘reported’ 26000 crowd.

i remember saying to my brother after the home league match that they were the worst team we'd played so far
