Give ABJ ten minutes.

He'll give us the exact allocation, credits needed, ticket prices and dates of sale.

Long walk from the train station or drive it? Questions, questions
I clutch the wire fence until my fingers bleed,
A wound that will not heal, a heart that cannot feel.
Hoping that the horror will recede,
Hoping that tomorrow we'll all be freed.........JUSTICE.

If he can add onto that date of the fixture, that would be excellent.

Reckoning the Wednesday as our game with United is on the sunday.

We went to the pre-season friendly a few years back and we got the whole of one end.

We got the bus to the main bus station which is closer than the train and we walked. Felt like a very long way and had to stop for ice cream about 3 times on the way back, there seemed to be ice cream shops everywhere.

It’s probably not that much of a walk, I’ve never liked walking.

Think they did in the FA Cup, but that's 15%.

Reckon we'll get around 3,000.

I wouldn’t be surprised if we got the whole Shankly Kop, their attendances haven’t been that great and they know we’d fill it.

Sound, I'll be getting off at Old Roan or Aintree. Can't wait for this, it's boss for me.

Never paid on that Ormskirk train. Mind you, the last time I got it was about 25 years ago. I should probably buy a ticket.

I just started work in Preston a few weeks back and it's a 10 min walk to Deepdale from there. Been past the ground loads recently and was hoping we'd get an away tie there so made up 😁

;D You know me well  ;)

Basically everyone with Norwich is practically nailed on to get one (that’s why despite what some predicted, it was never ever going to drop to all seasies let alone all members). Anything over that will depend if we get the whole end or not.

I’ve just sent you a what’s app, yeah it will be the Wednesday as we’ve got United the Sunday before and Brighton the Saturday after.

Nah we’ll get the lot, they don’t segregate that stand at Preston, so it’s a nice big allocation for us!

Preston game is Wednesday 27th October 7:45pm KO and apparently on Sky.

Hopefully they'll give us the full Kop end which is 5500, but lots of their fans saying loads of Liverpool fans will be in the home ends as well which they don't seem to have an issue with, a near sell out is more ££££ for them.

They had an issue last time. Lots of anti scouse songs, like a mini man united.

Used United's back catalogue on us, just like you'd expect from a load of inbreds.

I've been in their home end before for one of our games and it was toxic, was genuinely one of the few times I couldn't wait for the game to be over and I could get out safely. Had to keep so quiet, they were physically attacking Reds and coming out with some disgraceful comments. Definitely loads who have United as a second team.

I think I remember seeing some reds, and some of their fans getting thrown out last time. In the stand to the left of the Shankly Kop.

I remember them singing something along the lines of "Shankly is a white, he hates Scousers"  ;D

Yes, I was behind the other goal and could see them being thrown out, a few in my stand got attacked when they got outed as Reds too.

Many years ago I was at Preston College doing a day release course and it seemed to be full of Liverpool fans.  I know why have hatred towards Blackpool, didn't realise it extended to Liverpool.  Certainly what I've read in their forums Preston has quite a large Liverpool following.

Their last game against Utd only just sold out and there was a little bit of bother as a lot of Utd fans were in the home ends but they made themselves known and acted like dicks.  City didn't sell out as they said said it doesn't have the appeal of Liverpool or Utd  ;D

It’s a bit of an overspill of Manchester and Liverpool. So those with a manc background won’t like us. Plus you’ll have those that hate Mancs and Scousers, as they feel they should support their local team.

They’ve been bitter ever since Villa emulated their double.

Seems like we'll either get 2,900 like West Brom got or the full stand of 5k+

2,669 for Norwich went down to 1 credit so expect with 2900 this might just get down to all STH and with 5k+ should drop to all members.

Not so sure 2.9k gets to all ST. Preston is far easier to get to, that is only 200 more people that didn't do Norwich decide to go.

No chance with that allocation, this will be very popular

Would expect so.  Looks like 5500-5900 allocation depending on how many they trim from the 5900 capacity.
