    Just under 1000. I think their were about 968 of us. It's sad that the turnout tonight is going to be similar, simply because of a free coach.

    It's not as sad as taking about 200 because there are no free coaches.

    Just that for the sake of a free coach, we have hundreds of extra people going to a night match, all that way and for a match that's not exactly glamourous. Yet last season when the players needed them most, it was on at a much better time etc, we only took two official coaches when people had to pay.

    Dont' forget that last seasons cup game was just after *that* Sheffield Wednesday game followed by a stuffing at Wolves. Hardly suprising not many made the effort.

    I think it's great that we're taking so many coaches, maybe it's not as crucial a game as last season, but we all want to win and go through, and I'm sure Cryne, Shepherd, Davey etc all want the same. If we can take a strong following on a Friday night all the way down there, then it's a good thing in my eyes.</p>

    Doesn't matter how glamorous it is, still wish I could go!</p>

    Stop taking what I said the wrong way. I never said people can afford. I'm just making a point that free coaches have resulted in us taking just as many tonight, as we did for a much more important game last season.

    well lets think about the facts, its a cup game just after Christmas when the team are on bad run and its on the other side of England. Hardly a good prospect on a Friday night after work. travelling expenses would be huge without the free travel i'm just being realistic

    I'm not going either, mate.

    Can I be a 'not a proper fan' with you?
