Got my ticket earlier.
Suprised to see how many tickets have been sold already. Holte is sold out.

Should be a fair sized crowd.

Current estimate is 31,000 according to the ticket office.

With the possibility of another trip to Wembley (there are few top teams to really fear lef tin the competition) I guess people are buying their tickets now to secure a possible ticket at the end of Feb.

When is the draw for the next round, just in case we get through. Don't want fate tempted.

I'd wait to see if we get through first. However, I'll go for Blues away. Yikes.

I think our home form should be good...it's away from home I'm worried.

I'm pretty certain you could find someone that would do it for free.

Game at weekend or not - i do not see too many changes as we just do not have the bodies and Gez will get some flak if he takes this lightly

Guzan

Beye - more games the better for him to get sharp
Cuellar
Clark
Warnock

Ireland - needs games
Sidwell - chance to shine after decent display on Sat
NRC - he is cpatain and Gez said he plays
Albrighton - could rip them a new one

Ash - never wants to be resetd and loves playing
Would Give Carew 45 then Fonz - whoever performs best plays Sunday
