The was a post on Facebook from a Claret who runs the Silent Street Labour Club inviting Burnley fans. Seems to be about a five minute walk to the ground.

Was 1600 all the tickets they'd give us? Still a decent following.

No. We could have had just short of 2200.
It's probably double we usually take down there.

I think we got an initial 1.9k - which is the usual away allocation
If we had sold all of those we had the option on the lower tier but that only has a few hundred seats. Plymouth are the only team to sell out this season
As has been said 1500-1600 is a really good following to take down there

Especially when we have 3 long distance league games following the game (Norwich, Luton and Millwall).

Personally think our following is a bit disappointing, given the season we're having.

Are you going down?
It's a bigger following than we will be taking the week after to Norwich.

Yeah I am, just thought the season we're having we might have taken a few more. There'll probably be 600/700 there from London and the South East.

It's a very good season, but games are every 3/4 days in the championship.
I was expecting about 1200 to travel. We usually take about 750 there.

Perhaps supporters are bit meh about the whole gig as the club hasn't taken the FA Cup seriously for more than a decade.
Anyway, I'll be there (travelling from London) with my lad.

Norwich is up to around that figure now I’ve been told with a week to go.

Great news.
The club app is saying our allocation was 1600, I know I shouldn't trust it

Tbh a few our aways this season we've taken more than I expected. Suppose having Swansea, Bournemouth, Ipswich and Norwich all away in the space of a month doesn't help.

I"m guessing it was the police who forced the Station pub to close after the game? So instead of having a pint you had hundreds of people all trying to access the train station at once. Really don't understand their decision making at times.

Loads of Burnley goggleheads (you know, those costs with goggles in the hoods) acting like hard men outside the station when we walked past. They can’t have been older than 15. Pathetic. Thankfully a few goggleheads were taken down by the old bill.
