We've had some (relatively) decent attendances in the League Cup in recent years. Tonight's is surprising. Loads of contributing factors though.

Think it being a Tuesday with a weekend home game before and it being £12 were the main ones though.

How many did Tranmere bring?

All the goals from tonight being shown on SSN now.

Ours haven't been on yet.
It's not really a big story though is it? 'Premier League wins comfortably' isn't really want they want to lead with.

I don't think he is moaning about them not being on, just giving info that they hadn't been on when he posted. SSN normally do show all the league cup goals from the Prem team matches at least plus selected others.

Well the media including Radio WM must be really pissed off that we went through so easily, its a start and lets hope Lambert can inspire the lads to get something at the Toon, 3 more players badly needed tho so come on Randy get that cheque book out.

Yeah, just letting people know they'll be on at some point if they want to tune in.

Well a little light relief, if nothing else I can go to work with a smile on my face.  We still need a huge performance against the barcodes this weekend, that and a couple of new faces at BH by Friday and we can start to breathe more easily.

I can't remember a crowd that low since the holte was terracing. Any stato's care to correct me? I enjoyed the game. It was nice to see the full backs pushing on. I'm not sure the barcodes will be so accommodating though

When was the last time we had such a low attendance? Ireland appears to be MOM by country mile.

Are you sure about that? I've had a look and it doesn't seem to be on. I don't think the highlights are going to be on terrestrial telly at all, but I hope I'm wrong.
