Looking forward to it. Big away following plus the Wood and Taylor factor should ensure a great atmosphere.

No it's not official - will depend on how many tickets Leeds want.

They will think they will have a point to prove
And our buys off them will have made this fixture more feisty they will want as many as they can get their hands on
Don't forget we have just took two of their best players from the biggest club in Europe

Surely she can watch it on "pay-for-view" on the Ward. At the very least she can listen on Radio Blackburn ?!

We won't sell out so hopefully Leeds take the full allocation and push us close to the 17k mark.

Surprised that the FA are allowing our first team to play our development squad in the cup!

I hope there going to make them all turn up at the ground by Bus.
When it comes to Hooligans, Leeds were amongst the most cowardly of them all

According to the rules of the competition it is:
23.2 In all Cup Competition matches, the Visiting Club shall have the right to claim 10 per cent of all tickets reserved or otherwise sold in advance (any variation to that figure shall be subject to the consent of the Management Committee) and on the following conditions:
23.2.1 the request for tickets shall be made within three days of the draw, with the exception of the First Round where such request should be made no later than 14 days before the date of the match;
23.2.2 the admission prices to be charged to supporters of a Visiting Club shall not be higher than those charged to the supporters of the Home Club for comparable accommodation and in particular concessionary rates offered to senior citizens and junior supporters shall apply equally to both sets of supporters;
23.2.3 unless otherwise mutually agreed in writing, all tickets shall be on a sale or return basis; and
23.2.4 at every home match, a minimum of 10 per cent of the total disabled spectator accommodation must be made available to disabled supporters of the Visiting Club.

Hope it goes well by the way

I hope to god we dont give them the full allocation. As with lincolne we should have our usual section in there. Its the new longside. If they need more tickets stick em elsewhere. Give them the aabsolute minimum allowed and look after our own.

I couldn't give a shiny shite how many tickets they 'need', they will get how many we decide to give them.
Just because they are excited to see a premier league club again, particularly one with their two best players from last season in, doesn't mean we should pander to what they want.

Agree, even if we don't have home fans in there, just give them the usual away allocation.

They will sell all of what we offer. Very well supported away from home, and with this being their cup final, and the fact they will want to show their appreciation to two former players, in the way Leeds often do, they will sell out their allocation, whatever that may be.
Shame they aren't all that bothered about going to home games.
