    2876 is the record lowest for an FA Cup fixture - very real possibility we set a new record on Friday evening.

    There would have been 3 or 4 of us going if it was a Sat/Sun fixture - unless they open the upper tier there will be zero attending from our family.

    Bravo Barnsley, Bravo.

    Recovering from a chest infection and normally sit in the upper tier where there is more protection from the elements than the lower tier. I was holding off buying a ticket as I was hoping the lower tier would sell out and they'd release tickets for the upper. It's looking unlikely and the weather is forecast to be poor so I'll listen in on iFollow instead.

    Seems a real opportunity to aggressively market if we are allowed to. Cheap tickets. Kids for a quid / free tickets for schools.

    instead on the surface we just shrug. Feel it’s disrespectful to Horsham as well

    Am I right in thinking there's no video coverage on iFollow for FA Cup games?

    I seem to remember being in the ground with around 1200 in sometime early to mid 1970s. Think it was against Workington Town

    Remember going to a league game vs Wimbledon around 1985.

    Only just broke 3000.

    I’m going with a grandson (though 2 family members had already promised to go to a fireworks display). Remember that we splitting to gate with Horsham so the more reds fans that go, the more Horsham will get. Just a thought!

    It’s a crap day for the tie but all this bairning on here and talk of stay away protests is a bit pathetic really.
    Tin hat out.

    I think it's one of the poorest things we've done over the years, try and increase crowds - only the free child season ticket when Patrick was here is the only incentive l can remember. We've had the odd fiver league game etc but nothing on a push for landmark season ticket sales.

    There will be some moaning on here who wouldn’t watch this match if it was played in their back garden.

    Don’t want us to lose, as a 3rd round tie against a big club would be good, but if Horsham pull off an upset I will have a smile on my face. Hopefully the club can learn from its incompetence, but then again it’s not the first time we’ve thought this in recent years is it.

    Had it been played on Saturday 3 of us would have gone. On Sunday, 2 of us. On Friday, none of us.

    A while away yet, but it's not looking too bad for Friday evening (dry).
