Preston looked quite packed last night.

Shame the club can' t insitigate some sort of FA Cup loyalty scheme to ensure those that go to the earlier less attractive rounds get first dibs if we stay in and go on to draw one of the top six.

Would suggest that only count if you're not a season ticket holder already as STH's always get first dibs on their seat for cup games.

Herne Hill Seagull · Jan 8, 2017

Not always, Bigtom. I had to wait for them to open the right block, several days after the tickets initially went on sale, to be able to get my own seat for yesterday. Depends on the opponents, I suspect.

Thats pretty much exactly what happens. Your 20 loyalty points plus any you have carried over from last season and any earned for away games or even the Colchester game at home will all ensure you have first dibs over anyone who just fancies it as Man U are playing.

IF we get a big team them numbers for sale will be small as the visitors will take 4500. With the larger number of STH's this time is could mean as few as 2000 being up for grabs but those 20 points from yesterday will ensure you are in front of many.

Controversial maybe but those that attended yesterday should get preference over season ticket holders who didn't for the next round IMO.

And no doubt you think Jeremy Corbyn would make a good PM......

If I was a leftie pinko, you'd probably be right

Sky sports news running a piece on FA cup attendance drops this morning and had a table showing we were second highest drop from our average behind Hull.

Sky clearly have an agenda to devalue the fa cup as they have no coverage of it. I guarantee they didn't do a similar piece on league cup attendances.

Great app, but can't see attendances on it?

It looks like some of the attendances are missing from the games. Normally if you highlight a match then scroll down under match facts its recorded at bottom of page.

away followings looked decent to be fair. over 4k Newcastle,Wolves,Derby and Lincoln fans and decent numbers from Vale,Oxford,Bournemouth and Luton.

50,000 plus at Anfield for the game vs Plymouth, great effort all round

Yep, sometimes you have to admire the scousers, they have a very changed side, and on TV but full up and no closed stands against a div 2 club, plus 8500 away fans.

I've just noticed your location, the city must be empty !

Everyone in the pubs, hardly any traffic.
But looking at the first 8 minutes this could be a very long afternoon for Argyle.
Plymouth need to get into Liverpool or they could get a hiding.

Buy a newspaper then ??

Which newspapers still print them?

I don't think I've seen attendances listed for quite a number of years now.

Shrewd move by BT Sport to have Micheal Owen as co-commentator for a nice balanced view on proceedings.
This match so far is rubbish and Anfield is like a morgue, at least it's still 0-0, just.

Do you have to though? They are a global brand... doubt half of them are scousers.

Maybe Connor is there too :shrug:

Sounds like Steve McManaman to me. But I take your point.
