Contrary to popular belief, I'm not old enough !

I did though at one time posess the 4 page match programme which was issued for the game.

Sells for MEGA money now to Leeds United collectors does that one.

Bet CC was at the game?

Is this the first game or does the league start the Saturday before it ?

League game on Saturday 8th, Cup game probably Tuesday 11th

Without a doubt.

They brought quite a few with them when we played them pre season.

Good draw sure they will sell their allocation. Fleetwood/Hartlepool should have the potential to have a good crowd with the local police on standby. :lol:

It would be better if it is our first home game of the season. Guess we will find out tomorrow.

Not sure I agree, home on the Saturday will be a good crowd simply because it is the first game of the season and people have missed their football. The Sheffield United game will be almost a sell out anyway, so fingers crossed...

How many live TV games are there? If there are seven live games we might be in with a shout :roll: In order of interestingness/likelihood I would say...

Wycombe Wanderers v Fulham
Portsmouth v Derby County
Luton Town v Bristol City
Port Vale v Burnley
Accrington Stanley v Hull City
Northampton Town v Blackpool
Morecambe v Sheffield United
Yeovil Town v Queens Park Rangers
Bristol Rovers v Birmingham City

In the words of Paddy Ashdown, I will eat my hat (if its a sell-out)!

Didn't we only get about 2600 against Wolves? Any improvement on this would be decent. Its the 1st Round and Shef Utd will probably put out a weakened side, so I imagine they will only bring 800-1000.

Maybe do a special offer with two tickets for £20 for the first home game and get a few more in?

Okay, yes, I'm full of optimism at this time of year! 8-) :D Sheffield United will bring a fair few for the novelty factor, new ground etc. I think we will sell reasonably well. Slightly over 3,000.

Keith's list of games does not take account of the broadcasters obsession with Leeds United!
