Phileas Fogg Posted August 9, 2017 Report Share Posted August 9, 2017 Would love Rovers. Would prefer an away tie seeing as we got them at home last time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

View from the Dolman Posted August 9, 2017 Report Share Posted August 9, 2017 I think Downsy said it happens on Thursday evening. Presume that's after the Sky live game - Bury v Sunderland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted August 9, 2017 Report Share Posted August 9, 2017 Usually this round is seeded. Remember last season when we were either away to Chelsea or away to Scunthorpe, depending on Rovers result. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let them see what a stadium should look like! Big crowd, cracking atmosphere and (hopefully) the win we want. Away at their crumbling shitehole anything could go wrong, we'd only get 1,200 tickets and it's a horrible place to watch football.

Bar a bit of volume, they never ousting us at AG. If they are in good voice, I'm sure 20,000 home fans can drown them out, until we get our 3rd goal!

The other half would have to be taken by a responsible adult to chaperone each of them to stop them from nicking everything that isn't bolted down.

The acoustics aren't good for a home side because it's disjointed now so harder to get the whole ground to sing together. It's fine for a large block of away fans behind a goal though because their aim isn't to have the whole stadium singing along. We are obviously up for it against Rovers, felt they outsung us in 06/07 at home (they drew I think) but we outsung them in 13/14. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also presumably City would pick up the police bill. Would they also get a share of gate receipts? All in all I would personally be happy to see them sunk without trace and for that reason I don't want to have City share the same pitch with them ever again. I accept I hold the minority view !

I actually agree with you. No need to ever play them again. We have nothing more to gain from it. IF we have to play them, then I'd much rather it was at our place, to really rub their noses in it at how far we've progressed since their last visit!

If we did get them (which is highly unlikely), if they destroyed the Atyeo, we could sue for damages (they loves a court case remember) and rebuild the Atyeo with the proceeds and no demo costs!

wendyredredrobin Posted August 9, 2017 Report Share Posted August 9, 2017 If we drew the sags, would we fill the ground? What is the current capacity with segregation? Presumably we would let them have enough tickets to fill the Atyeo. How many does that hold? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A minority perhaps but I for one agree. Those matches are no win situations for us. If we beat them they just quote our superior resources and claim a moral victory. If they beat us then we will never hear the last of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wendyredredrobin Posted August 9, 2017 Report Share Posted August 9, 2017 Yeah, no segregation if they fill the Atyeo (which they would). Would be great to see a full house. But even greater ts stuff the Sags 5 - 0 in front of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
