At the moment we are looking at a Cardiff City size League Cup crowd. Less than 7000 which includes 1900 from Brum.
Hopefully another 3 or 4000 will realise there is a game on. |
Bristol City have got one man and his dog watching them. A 7,000 crowd would be more than respectable. | | | |

| Swansea Indepenent Poster Of The Year 2021. Dr P / Mart66 / Roathie / Parlay / E20/ Duffle was 2nd, but he is deluded and thinks in his little twisted brain that he won. Poor sod. We let him win this year, as he has cried for a whole year. His 14 usernames, bless his cotton socks.

It amazes me as to why so many of our hardened season ticket holders of many years just dont turn up for the early rounds of this competition.
There is such a feel good factor around the club at the moment.
We are up against a fellow championship club in a tournament we can proudly say we previously won.
The club deserve all our support now more than ever.
I love the fact that they have moved the first round match to before the first league game.
This is no meaningless friendly - it's the real thing.
This is an important match with with something riding on it. [Post edited 6 Aug 3:44]

Until i told my season ticket holding dad that the game was on he wasnt aware. Hes in his 70s no internet no computer. So how does he find out if the game is on ?
So between him his mate and my uncle thats 3 who didnt know the game was on but are now going. How many more are there like this?
They didnt even know the first home friendly was on. | | | |

The official attendance was 9982 all these first round games are live on Sky and at this time of year with lots away on holiday its understandable
A crowd of 10000 Saturday is what I would expect |  |

It’s still a shit booking system that isn’t fit for purpose. If a system can be devised to put off fans who aren’t online savvy then this is it. I’m no idiot but the app is pathetic. If you book on the app your tickets should appear immediately….my money disappears immediately so it can be done. | | | |

I agree about the app/site . It does need looking at. No real issue with waiting for tickets as that is usual with ticketmaster no matter what event you book through them.
My tickets came wednesday for this sat. So not a major issue.
The point i was making, there were 3 season ticket holders who didnt know the game was on until i mentioned this to them and then got the tickets for them.
I suspect there are many more like tuis. | | | |

Looking forward to the team selection of both sides tomorrow. I hope both teams take it as a genuine opportunity for progression and not a match to be fulfilled | | | |

It feels like a friendly playing it before a league game.
But it's a free hit |
Great score from Middlesboro. Brilliant finish. | | | |

Don’t forget to take a card for payment they don’t accept cash, I went yesterday to buy 3 tickets and after a 10 min wait to be ask what I wanted, I ask for 3 tickets, we went through the seating plan and choose my seat, when I went to pay with cash I was told they don’t accept cash.
So I asked if they rather in didn’t attend and her reply was sorry
Utter madness 😡🤷♀️ |  | | |
