    there are only about 6,500 season ticket holders, they don't all go to every game either.

    Why?

    Correct me if I'm wrong but wasn't the Chelsea game all ticket?

    Blaming the attendance on the game being all-ticket is just ridiculous!

    Where were season ticket holders at Plymouth,Southend and Palace......can't afford to go away and have a season ticket probably........some people go to as many games but choose to support their team home and away through the season,they are the ones who have a legitimate complaint

    No idea. Definitely not at work, though. Honest.

    Fair point mate, but I think we have to face facts - the cup run is a welcome distraction from yet another season of utter mediocrity. I had a season ticket for a while - noweher near as long as some, but long enough - but the standard of football was such that I used to wake on the morning of a game and think "Oh f**k. We're at home, aren't we?"

    It's a lot of money to pay to be bored senseless. I know football's meant to be about passion and following your team regardless, but I think more and more people are getting out of that mindset and choosing which games they want to attend. Ordinarily a derby against the Blades would be one of those games, but obviously more people fancy the trip to Wembley than they do a trip to Oakwell to watch another dire derby performance.

    I understand that

    It's just that there's been so many people bairning on about Wembley tickets and saying they go to every single game. That obviously isn't true.

    Not everybody there was a season ticket holder. Of the four people I went with none of us were and we only had one Wembley ticket between us.
