They have already contacted Everton and asked for 32,000 for their trip to Goodison

I couldn't care less what Chelsea did in 2008, thats their lookout! WE SHOULD NOT BE GIVING BARNSLEY ANY MORE TICKETS THAN WE HAVE TO! Its not resorting to anything either. Its our home game and should be played as such. For gods sake why don't we just switch it to Oakwell if we take your view???

Barnsley. Does that Hourihane guy still play for them. If so, we could be in trouble. Lots of young players will get a run, and Jack Cork will get a rest.......finally.

Last thing we should be doing - we should be encouraging them to take the away section only and allow all our season ticket holders to claim their own seats.

Or maybe we could start behaving like a Premier club instead of "little old Burnley"? Do you think any other Premier league side would be that scared of facing a League 1 team at home that they'd go out of their way to give them as few tickets as possible? Our end will be half empty anyway and if we need help to beat a League 1 side at home then we don't deserve to progress to the 4th round.

We dont need help & I don't remember anyone saying we are scared of facing anybody?? What you are saying daft. We are at home so should played as our home game. Start filling the ground with Barnsley fans and we might as well be at Oakwell. I don't see any logic in what you are saying at all. Give them what they are entitled to and no more. Or am I assuming the BFC in your name is for Barnsley??
