    Just 14,000 at the Birmingham v Wolves game. Local derby, premier league opposition etc and the fans give it the cold shoulder.

    I think the same will happen at Oakwell 7,628 is my guess

    A reduced admission price today even a tenner would have been appropriate.

    We aren't allowed to charge a tenner which is a shame. For 16 quid you can sit in a nice warm cinema for a couple of hours watching a movie you know you will enjoy, with a drink and some popcorn. Or you can sit at Oakwell in the cold without refreshment not knowing what to expect. Surprised that Swansea brought 1,318.

    Only Crawley, Dagenham, Fleetwood & Macclesfield had less

    Whatever happened to the magic of the FA Cup? Even when we were **** in the 4th Division we always got a decent crowd if we played anyone from the top flight in the FA Cup.

    If the game had been against Man U, Chelsea, Arsenal, City, Spurs then there would have been a good crowd, but we saw Swansea at Oakwell last season.

    There was nowt like 1318 of them. That must be tickets sold surely? Apparently they have a points system for the PL games and our game was a cheap point, a lot won't have come.

    Barnsley vs Stoke City both Championship 1989 3rd round replay was crowd 21000?

    Stoke were in old 1st division I feel local economy is main factor responsible for poor crowd.
