    Would we have sold 11K?

    I'm not so sure to be honest...

    Apparently, they have to be PAID FOR by BFC, so if you don't sell 'em all, you're out of pocket.

    Yeah The Idiot Said 11K

    I'd like to know which part of the three other sides we were getting. How sad that after beating top of the league, someone rings in to moan about old news.

    It's a load of rubbish. 6000 is the initial offer from Liverpool, always is, apparently. Sometimes an extra 2000 available but weren't for us because Liverpool started selling them to home fans. It is a big game for them too. 5th round of the cup and looks like their best bet for a trophy this season. Why should they keep giving us tickets? 6000 satisfies the rule set for alocation and that is the end of it.

    The Entire End Would Only Have Been 9K

    They would have been dumb to give us more tickets and risk turning it into an home atmosphere for us. Good business sense by Liverpool, to turn down our request.

    As we sold 6k in one day, I don't think we'd have any trouble shifting 11k.</p>

    Would sell like hot cakes.</p>

    Refused any chance of obtaining more from the liverpool box office manager .we have had our allocation and Liverpool were not willing to let us have any more.

    Yes we would but how would we have had 11K

    Entire stand doesn't hold that many - or were they planning to give us the Kop
