That is superb pricing. Well played both clubs.

 

[Kenny]

So no allocation agreed yet. We want the full 15%. I presume if Bristol are refusing that it is down to the FA to set what we get.

 

[AndyWolves]

0 chance of this making LP100

Id imagine Brizzle will sell out so we won't be getting any more

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

We will get the whole of the Atyeo, which holds 4,200. That is actually about 16.5% of capacity by my back of a fag packet calculations, but is their standard biggest allocation.

Clearly Brizzle don't want to give us the full allocation or else we would have that.

Obviously got a reason lined up to reduce it. Bit like when Jez quickly sorted out some repair work between the South Bank & Steve Bull Stand and persuaded the FA it would be impossible to safely house away fans across the 2 stands.

 

[PuntsWolf]

Not liking these large gaps in supporter numbers. If I miss out with 1120 won’t be pleased. Should be fine if allocation 4200 though.

£12 is ridiculously cheap as well. I assume they’ve thought the TV money will cover the lost revenue and want a full house on TV

 

[Norman Deeley]

Is the game on TV? Are BBC showing it?

Yes and BT

 

[White Wolf]

Really good pricing, nice one.

Hopefully we play the first-team for this as we have a real chance.

hmmmm

they have given the whole of the Atyeo for those that want it for a season and a half. They can split it 25 / 75 in favour of away fans but that would put them quite a bit UNDER the 15%.

I imagine that is the palaver at the mo. Either way, it should be bigger than most of the allocations we get in league games.

 

[TheWrightStuff]

Fair play Bristol that is excellent

Hopeful of picking up a spare, with that allocation.

 

[Derby Wolf]

Think they're trying to limit us to behind the goal because there was some clashes between them and Swansea fans inside the stadium in a recent game. Fans got to each other rather than the missile throwing.

As there has also been considerable trouble between Wolves and Bristol over the years can see them and the police trying to limit it.

 

[Jinky]

If anyone was under the impression this would be a walk in the park, Bristol City won again last night. That makes it 9 in a row, and 15 games unbeaten. That’s an impressive run in any division but especially one as unpredictable as the Championship.

If anyone was under the impression this would be a walk in the park,.

Is anyone thinking that?

Its an away game in the FA Cup against a team only a Division below us. Shrewsbury away should show fans it isn't an easy game. We play like we can and we will win but we slack off 1 bit and they will take us. The last 18 months they have a decent Cup record.

Interesting to see what Nuno will do with this game. Personally it should be the team we are playing in the League stepping out but I think he will keep Ruddy in and Jota is probably a doubt after hobbling off on Monday.

 

[YoungWolf]

It will be a difficult game. We will be going full strength (maybe Ruddy aside) and there will be no excuses for us however.

They don't score many goals and whilst any unbeaten run is impressive we have nothing to be scared of here. Play the first team and get Raul back into form and we should win this.

 

[Deleted Cyber]

This is one tough match. 9 in a row and they have good recent EFL cup pedigree. We have to be on our A game and play our strong team. Tie has to be settled so we dont want a draw and penalties cause we are shit at that too.

The plus is we are to Bristol City what Huddersfield are to us. For some reason we are their bogey team and Huddersfield are ours.

 

[Deano]

I'm not convinced we will be going full strength.

I hope we do but I wouldn't at all be surprised to see a similar team to the Shrewsbury game, which will make this very tough indeed.
