Cannot believe you lot are rattling on about some meaningless tinpot cup game when your real cup final is on Saturday On a more serious note are you lot expecting a decent crowd (home end not away) what with your cracking form & Wembley shenanigans?
Will be normal home support. Despite it being a South Yorkshire derby, it never seems to catch the imagination. Both got bigger clubs to hate I guess.
11-12k with the usual 1500-1700 of your lot. Not bad for a team that was bottom of the league 2 months ago..
I can't see more than 1200 of us, it really is turgid stuff we are churning out at the minute. Wouldn't be surprised if are in the mix at the bottom come May, we haven't got a League 1 standard centre back at the club. We sold out for S****horpe last week before it got called off 1600+ pay on the day as they opened up the side bit 45 minutes before they called it off but I can't see that many travelling Saturday, we always seem to take more there than to you for some reason?
Turgid? With the exception of this Saturday, I had the impression from a certain Mr D Ferguson, (on local radio), that the football was magical?
4 of the last 5 home games have been shocking, the 5th was good for the last 20 minutes. Fergie will be ok when he can shift some of the deadwood, all about staying up this season I'm afraid.
I know 5 who would normally be going to Oakwell , but after Saturday's pile they've decided to give it a miss and are also getting a refund on the cancelled Scunny game. Voting with their feet.
Big game for BFC Saturday. It's an early test of whether we can go forward with the "system" that is in place now that LeeJay has departed. Lose and there will be plenty lining up to say that Paul Heckingbottom doesn't have the magic. While that would be totally premature, there will still be plenty winning to say it.
Our record against Donny is abysmal so wouldn't be surprised if you took at least a point. Having said that, Gillingham's record against us was terrible before Saturday so who knows? With the reduced prices (£20, £10, £6, £1) I think there'll be around 12,000 on Saturday.
You cant park on poggy sands or locke park anymore. You might be best parking at stairfoot b&q. Bit further away but your tyres wont get stuck in the mud.
Cheers Deetee,Getting stuck in the mud is an occupational hazard for us, we have invented things to solve this .

If donny don't bring over 1500 that would be a new low. Especially considering they brought over a 1000 last year on a Tues night. And with the lower prices.
Think you brought 1300 or just short last season on a Tues night so I'm expecting a few hundred more at least with cheaper tickets too
They brought 1700 in the championship game in 2011, Trippier equalised with a free kick near the end. We haven't beaten them in the last 5, 3 of those games have been drawn. We've only lost 1 at Oakwell in the previous 6. Nailed on draw.
Apparently we shifted around 1000, can't see many paying an extra £5 on the day, might be pushing to hit my 1200 estimate.
