I went to both games against Weds this year and they looked like they played for a draw in both. Good honest team, physical and will be a good test. Think we are better than them with a full team as we have a load more points than them, but will be no push overs. Think Hughton will play a bit cautious away and go for it at home. Think with Stephens we will win, without, very close. Should be a good couple of games, with 2 different style of teams.

Confirmed now that Wednesday fans will be in the lower tier.

They've also sold out their allocation or Monday

I think he'll want to be keep it tight, as I think he is cautious by nature. 4-5-1 wouldn't surprise me, but a lot depends on whether Stephens is available.

The thing that worries me is that you appeared quite physical and direct, which I think could be our undoing.

Second leg, will be score dependant, but I don't envisage us going for it until the second half.

Regardless of our approach both teams will get chances it's whether we can finish ours.

Makes sense, if we were away first leg we'd go 442 but with a pressing game and get men behind the ball.

If you can only go with what you've seen at the AMEX then fair enough but this season we've played some cracking football. Our manager did adopt different tactics against the better teams as he found out that we were far too open at the start of the season e.g losing 3-1 to both Middlesbrough and Burnley. Utimately it's served us well because it got us to where we need to be.

FWIW, I thought you were mightily impressive at The Amex, and did a professional job. You were extremely negative in the first 20 minutes, quietened the crowd down, and very slowly began to be a little more adventurous. By the time of the second half, you were well in the game, and probably had the better of the chances. We weren't much cop that day, although I'm pretty sure we were without Kayal.

The record in the all seater must be close to the 39800 capacity. Against Wycombe in 2012 we got 38,062 for example. Can't see more than 34,000 on Friday due to the segregation requirements.

Shame I can't be there. Have visited before and despite its cavernous size it's quite the old school experience.

Good luck, but hope we win clearly.

Will try and get a ticket somehow as will be working in Sheffield Thursday and Friday, after enduring a similar experience working in Hull Tuesday and Wednesday..... Hull doesn't seem too bad, but night hasn't fallen yet

No just curios, and its worth a bit of banter before the game, I know you barely took any to Forest either, don't travel too well if you have to go further than MK (special offer)

How many should we take 190 miles on a Monday night for a TV game?

Are you one of the 5K fans who used to go to Withdean, or a Spurs/Liverpool/Man U fan who has started going since the Amex?

Won't be anymore spare for you on Monday.

They are still giving season ticket holders first option on their seats until tomorrow morning. Should be a total sell out by Thursday, no more for Wednesday will be available.
