Whether WMP would deem the segregation between the Quadrant and the North Bank proper adequate for that lot though......

Oh, re giving them 15% - after what they pulled about tickets for us then **** them! Bare minimum tickets.

They'll probably end up with a bigger allocation than what we get due to ground size

Think its between 2500 and 2800, if it was a replay they'd either get SBL and Quadrant or the south bank, ultimately the club won't have much of a say it will be what the police want
It is definately 3k thats the minimum legal requirement for a ground our size in the premier league.

Can't believe we're discussing a replay, but this was Liverpool last season

Attendance: 30,948 (4,817 away fans)

We lose about 500 to segregation. They got 15.56% of the attendance but 15.03% of the capacity! So surely that's how it will work.

It's far easier to manage outside the ground if they had the usual allocation for me, or you get (like last time) huge issues where the Stafford Rd crosses the ring road.

I don't think it's quite 3k since JL1 got knocked down, only slightly lower though (you're allowed a bit less - ask Liverpool, 2800 and 200 of them you can't actually see the pitch from!)

Ive just looked at the yanited ticket page and they have 3k i think 250 odd seats were ripped out so pre this id have said the lower sb held 3300 before the noth bank rebuild.

Don't be ridiculous. They won't let us make them sit outside the ground. Where would be the beggars and hot dog sellers go?

Maybe, I can see that, but nobody has bought 3,000 according to wiki away attendances, 2970 is as high as it goes. That might be unused wheel chair and carer places though or something, it's near as dammit 3k anyway, nowhere near 15%. Be nice to give them 4.5k and see if they could actually sell them. Better still just win there.

South Bank would make it easier to police inside the ground but a nightmare outside to get a big away support crossing home support back to coach park and station. Saying that, I don't really know how they police us when we go to the Hawthorns, escort from Rolfe St or Hawthorns tram stop wasn't it?

I suspect the reason we’ve not been given the full stand at the Poorthorns is because there’s an agreement they won’t get such a large allocation at Molineux either. So likely SBU only or SBU and quadrant.

Either way, hopefully we get the job done this weekend and don’t need to worry about it.

Oh ****. If this goes to a replay surely the club have learnt there lesson and won't give them the Southbank again?

Saying all that, no way will be not win this.

No idea how anyone can sit in the home end.

When needs must .....I did it in the front fow of the Halfords lane stand when Bully scored in the last minute ........Surrounded by the great unwashed who then realised who we were .....Ended up on the track and then a quick sprint and dive into the Smethwick end

There was always worse trouble when it's at their ground in the past.

When they have to come to us, they are sheepish and follow the official (safest) commutes in, like coaches etc.

When we go to theirs, we don't give a monkeys and just go like we would to a home game and park up anywhere etc and diverge on the ground - and that's where it gets difficult to police

What’s the alternative taking into account how many tickets we have to give them?

They've just given us 15% of capacity as they have to, but no way of segregating the stand, so 4k in a 5.2k stand.

So if it does go to a replay we'll give them the Quadrant and SBL as that is almost bang on 15% anyway.

The SouthBank stuff is another wind up like the bubble. People stressing about something that isn't going to happen.

United, Chelsea and Liverpool have all had the 2 sections, maybe another? Those 3 clubs with big followings wouldn't be too different to a BCD just more police to guard the routes. Anyway it's not going to a replay (can't go to the away one so part of me does want a replay!!)

The officials - no one had posted these as far as l can see.

Referee: Thomas Bramall
Assistant referees: Simon Bennett & Blake Antrobus
Fourth official: John Busby

Bramall refed the Everton game.
Not one of those names causes me to shudder. I keep saying it, but the stars are aligning.

If only we could play them more often without them getting promoted or us relegated!

Should have a Calcutta Cup type arrangement where we play them every pre-season, with games alternating between Molineux and The Hawthorns.

Would sell out and attract better crowds than any friendly game, so good for both clubs.

Trophy could be a big chain, like the symbol on the Black Country flag.
