Just starting match report and can't find it anywhere

Between 89 and 90,000.

I noticed it didn't appear on the stats graphic on MOTD.

Why the big secret?

Bigger than Rovers v Hull

Nothing in the Sun today either....

Just like every other day then.

according to http://www.rtfract.com/citjan18a.htm" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; it was 53,420

Neither club have given it, not on BBC nor any other reputable site. The only one I can find is the estimated 53,420.

oh aye! I missed the est bit...ooops

There were more away fans than the entire crowd at Ewood

Yep definite tax dodge. Arab way I'm told.

Apparently you can knock 20,000 of the figure as that’s how many empty seats they have!!

53,356

I don't think it was announced yesterday either over the PA, or via social media (that I could find.)

It wasn't even circulated around the press box, which might explain why it wasn't in the majority of the match reports I'd seen.

I had looked last night, and eventually I found the details on the FA's own website:

(I can't reproduce an exact URL - you need to expand the 3rd Round Proper section, then click on the + next to our match)

There were quite a few less with 10 minutes to go, apparently.
