We’ll be there in good numbers and good spirits, certainly not to antagonise. I know you lot are a decent bunch as well, which always helps. We’ll find somewhere to settle down, I’m sure. Weather looks like it could be half decent, so the beach might be a good shout.

King and Queen looks a cracking old place, will be sure to pay that a visit. The Font looks like it would have decent acoustics for a bit of a sing song too. Thanks chaps!

Thanks for that. Presumably the same allocation we’ve been given, then?

Thanks. Whatever happens it will be a party atmosphere I’m sure. Of course, it starts to get a bit challenging keeping things going if we’re 4-0 down after half-an-hour, but I think you’ll be impressed by our following. I think there will be a decent number coming down on the Saturday. Is there...

Hope you do - I genuinely think we could have sold 10,000 for this one given a sufficient allocation. I’ve got mine at least, and will be coming down Friday night and spending the weekend on the south coast. Can’t wait! Out of interest, what’s the biggest away following you’ve had at the Amex...

Well, we’ve sold our allocation out, so no messing about there…

This video always gets me, as someone who also doesn’t like heights. I don’t know how much they get paid for this, but it’s not enough.

They’re on sale to ST holders only, but there’s no loyalty system beyond that. We have almost 6,000 season ticket holders, so demand will almost certainly outstrip supply before it makes general sale. It was the same process for Southampton, but we only sold about 2,500 to ST holders with...

Well I hope you lot are having more fun getting tickets than we are. Town have had the master stroke of putting tickets on sale, in person only, immediately after tonight’s match v Newport, when with wind chill the temperature is forecast to be -3. Alternatively, you can wait until midnight to...

I wouldn’t be getting ahead of yourselves just yet, lads. I’ve just come back from a long weekend in the not-so-distant future and I’m afraid it’s not good news….

Yeah, combining prize money, gate receipts and TV money, we should be well over £1m up by the time we’re done with the game of the Amex. That assumes we lose. If we did happen, somehow, to make it to the semi-final, that would be worth something like another £2.5m all in, on top of what we’ve...

I think, in terms of cold, hard cash, Man Yoo away was probably the best draw. But in terms of our incredibly slim chances of progressing, I don’t think they’re meaningfully any greater against Brighton. I could find a narrative in my head that said we could beat Southampton. I can’t come up...

As a Grimsby fan I don’t think £25 is at all unreasonable for a quarter final at a Premier League ground against a Premier League club. As you suggest, it will result in a significant windfall for us and so it seems a fair happy medium in that regard. £300k is of course small beer for PL clubs...

Any accommodation recommendations for the weekend, folks? I’ve provisionally booked the Leonardo Waterfront for two nights for a grand total of 530 notes for a family room as I’m bringing the family with me to quell the flak I’ll get for ruining Mother’s Day, but it’s a little more than I...

Deary, deary me boys. Does every Albion thread on oppo forums descend into an oblivion of seagull puns, or is it just us that gets that treatment? If you came over to the Grimsby board, I’d simply thank you for dropping in.

Host the fight underwater and its haddock’s all day long.

I think I’ll leave NSC to its own devices for a little while, at least until all the fish puns have died down a bit…

I don’t think there’s many Grimsby fans getting overly excited or booking their Wembley hotels just yet, even if we are technically just a game away. A game from which we are highly unlikely to emerge victorious. Curiously, on of the unexpected benefits of being absolutely trash for most of the...

Hello, I’m here. :) I’ll be honest, Southampton haven’t covered themselves in glory as a club. Their fans seemed to assume victory was a foregone conclusion with whatever side they could be arsed to field, their fans couldn’t be bothered to come along and support their team in any kind of...

Yep, I think I might have to lay low for a couple of weeks. And maybe even forever if we beat you*. :p *we won’t
