Can’t help but think it’s a bit of an own goal from the club not going for the higher amount of tickets. It’s potentially a once in a generation cup tie, of course there was gonna be big interest.

Costly if we sent 2000 back though

That's just it Padge. The cost to the club for sending tickets back isn't worth it.

What is the cost? Do we need to pay for tickets up front or something?

I'll be surprised if we even sell this lot tbh. It's an expensive and tricky trip for many.

I really wanted to go to this game, but I can't justify the cost of ticket, travel plus food and drink and then getting back home in the early hours, but I'm sure those that do go will enjoy the match whatever the result.

The way I see it, this could and probably will be my only chance to see rovers play there. 1975 was the last time rovers played there at the old ground. I obvs didn’t go then.
Prior to that it was 1947.

You missed a treat 7 2 but we were unlucky as even london papers  reported

For the record I AM going again. It won't be 7 2  although as Spud will testify I saw us lose 4 0 to Luton and years later went again and said , no way will it be 4 0 but it was

My dad was at the 1975 game. And I’m please to report he will be with us at this years game. With me and my youngest son. Three generations of rovers together. We which don’t do often due to us living all over.

With the 1pm deadline upon us, I reckon around half of those that were eligible for priority tickets have now got one. 5200 ish were eligible, and around 2600 have gone. 1250 ish left.

We sell good numbers but tickets always seem to move at a slower rate than you’d expect.

I’m lucky, my son and grandson manage to attend all of the games with me, home and away.
There’s only one mile distance from our homes. It’s certainly nice for 3 generations to go together.

It certainly is . There probably aren’t many of us enjoying this privilege.

I’ll be there with my son, unfortunately they’ll be a pitch length between us. He’ll be in the south stand(Spurs season ticket holder) whilst I’ll be in the Rovers section.

Got a very cherished photo at home with my dad, me, son & grandson following Donny at Rochdale. All four generations are Rovers mad, despite the old man now feeling too old to go. A memory I’ll always love. Truly blessed.

Don't quote me on it Nick, because I'm not sure about this specific game. But I'm sure clubs can make you purchase in advance, so you effectively buy the allocation from the club and then any left over, you're out of pocket. 1000 tickets at £30 we can't shift isn't really worth thinking about if it's the case.

They are basically saying "sit in this block if you dont mind sitting next to a drum".

It can also be negotiated, which is what I'd be trying to do.
