I'd guess 40k. Depends on how many are locked out (which will probably be a lot for them if they face either Swindon or Newport). Also you need to factor in all the obsessed Ted’s that will turn up hoping to see Rovers lose. Edited April 4, 2022 by Gert Mare Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may have been for rugby, but it was always less for football. I had a spare ticket and had a crowd of people trying to buy it off me. And there were people trying to get vantage points outside the ground. I'm not claiming getting 10k for a friendly against Manchester United is any great shakes, but there were plenty of people (mostly local United fans) trying to get tickets in the days before the game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We drew 3-3 in a friendly/testimonial vs Man Utd and there was a ‘Bristol Reds’ banner in the away end - hated that - I knew a guy who arranged coaches to every Man Utd home game from Plymouth and Bristol - just can’t understand it - but pointless trying to as I probably never will!

As you say, at least Gasheads support a team in their own city (albeit the wrong one). 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn’t Osman bring on the untried (and largely unheard of) Matt Hewlett, Mike Wyatt and Jason Fowler at half time? That’s what made the turnaround so enjoyable, though admittedly Man Utd were hardly busting a gut.

Port Said Red Posted April 5, 2022 Report Share Posted April 5, 2022 (edited) Tonight's games could be a win win for them, If Port Vale and Forest Green win it decreases their chances of automatic promotion, but increases their chances of making the play offs. But the opposite is true if Mansfield and Salford win. I think the worst results for them would be Mansfield and Salford winning though as it puts 3rd place 3 points away and brings Salford right into the play off mix.

At the time I thought “what a comeback” but it dawned on me over the following weeks that United dropped several gears after the break. Still, like you say, it was an enjoyable match to watch especially as all 6 goals were scored right in front of us in the East End Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I seem to remember Utd having a decent side, maybe not totally full strength but they were very good. I think someone had a word with them at half time and said “take it a bit steady lads...it’s a testimonial” 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There used to be coaches to Liverpool and Man Utd from Bridgwater most weeks Ray white ran the Utd coach until he got caught stealing from the club and a guy named Charle ran the Liverpool coach but at least he came from Liverpool . . would quite often jump on them on for Sunday games if there was a spare seat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
