I can't see what all the fuss is about,with people wanting us to have as big a following as Rovers. When you stop to think about it we played our best football away from home this season.We have had a fantastic away following again and apart from the game at Alfreton, where we well out numbered the home fans, all the other away games the home teams have out numbered us but everywhere we've been we have out sang and chanted ten times louder than the home supporters. No reason we can't do this on sunday. The Teams good enough to win and the support we give them is excellent and we will be the 12th man. We can do it,it's our year..

Any seat starting with a 2. I would think so. Great view from the visual seating plan site. UTM!

I just rang to try and book 5 tickets (0950 hrs) for Tier 2. They still want to sell all Tier 1 tickets first before selling any tier 2 tickets.
I asked the operator when he thought Tier 2 tickets would be available? He thought Wed or Thu but did not know how Town fans tickets were selling. (I do not think that he could tell me anything new).
He did confirm that tickets can be picked up on the day at Wembley. This is usually from early of the day of the match. This helps "late-bookers" who take a risk on Tier 2 tickets ever becoming available.

The whiteboard in the Town dressing room isn't going have a seating plan on it. If it came to hand to hand combat we'd take heavy casualties but it's 11 v 11 on the pitch that matters.

1) That was 35 years ago
2) Surely you go to a play off final to support your team not to watch entertaining football? No matter what Sky tells us you get good and bad games at all levels, especially in play off finals. This town team aren't as entertaining as sides from the past but they're certainly better to watch than some of the dross we've had. For their effort this season I think they deserve better support in our biggest game for nearly a decade.
It was 35 yrs ago, taking 20k+ in 98 was 17yrs ago also, the point is people whining on about why we arent taking 20k now as we took 20k + previously. Since 98 we have had a general downward trend in our level of playing and success, 17yrs is along time in football, a lost generation pretty much, the young lads 17-20yrs have arguably seen an upward trend in their time, slowly moving up the table and some Wembley appearances to get excited about. For anyone over 30 they have probably witnessed at least ten years of fast decline and if they have stuck with it, a slow rise position wise but still without definitive success. As for myself mid 40's i have seen promotions, championships, trophy final victories, play off final victories, big cup scalps, beautiful football tempered with indifferent seasons inbetween and relegations and some of the worst players and managers in our history. All of the above leads to the present day, 17 yrs without any kind of tangible success, or bluntly 17 yrs of failure, if i feel this way then i am sure others do, i know other people of my age who either dont go anymore as the love has been bludgeoned out of them or they still go but struggle to raise any real enthusiasm. When you have seen some of the class players, world class in some opposition cases, on the BP turf in your lifetime it is very difficult to feel genuinely excited when a current player manages to complete a 15 yd pass with some regularity. Do i want the club to succeed? Of course i do but can i get over excited about it? Unfortunately not.
