Looking forward to the game this evening. Colchester are brining a tidy away following which should ensure a good atmosphere and are sure to raise their game against one of the giants of this stage of the competition, A few fresh faces pushing for first team selection and I think a fairly...

Excellent offer by the club, and well done to Colchester as they may lose some revenue this way and it's a long way down on their matchday admission prices. Surely a bumper audience for this now 15,000-20,000 for me, even more with a few signings and a bumper away following.

Surprised they've not announced ticket details for this one yet. Must be some negotiations with Colchester on what is a fair price.

There has to be an argument that we want to get off to a flyer next season, not suffer a hangover from how last season finished so a first home game of the season win in front of a raucous home audience would be the ideal scenario, especially considering the tough nature of our opening game...

Yes, if it means more in their playing budget for next season. They probably do the same for their home games, I doubt they charge a tenner to get in. It's a plum draw for them so they'll bring a decent travelling support irrespective of price.

Col U will think either 10,000 @ £25 = £250k or 20,000 @ £10 = £200,000 (plus a partisan home audience resulting in a better prospect of the home team winning.

Yes we do and i would imagine Col U are looking at this as a bumper payday for them so will want to keep the ticket prices fairly high to maximise their revenue from the tie.

Yes, they and Norwich were rewarded with byes to the 2nd round for being the two hihest finishing EFL sides from last year.

Full draw, some tasty ties for the 1st Round. Sky screening 3 games which I have highlighted in bold as the most likely... Barnet vs Milwall Reading vs Plymouth Newport vs MK Dons Ipswich vs Stevenage Wycombe vs Bristol City Walsall vs Yeovil Exeter vs Brentford QPR vs Swindon...

Yes, a tenner would be even better. Great gesture if the club do this.

Hopefully the club will reduce ticket prices to £20 adults to get a bumper audience in.

Great draw, very winnable tie. :clap: :O:
