Birmingham bringing big away following

Makes for a good atmosphere looking forward to it. Hope we stop the Rooney Hype train at its first stop. UTFB
 
This might of be a night cup game ?
Was definitely dark on the approach to the riverside.
They definitely came with trouble on their mind .. I got caught in it , think they were on route to the navi ?
It was just after the stadium was built there was a big thing in the gazette how much damage they’d done.

Not bitter at all just pointing that out.

In that case I salute them.
Got to respect anyone who follows the local team to an away game.
And besides.
It's not every week they get a chance to see the mighty boro.
And may be even taste a proper parmo.
Who can blame them.
 
NB - They have never sold their full allocation (2,500 - 2,800) at the Riverside when I have seen them play. They may have asked for say 900 and sold them out.
 
2,500 Birmingham fans would be good - not often we get more than 1,000 away fans at the Riverside. Cardiff must have brought around 120.

With 25,000 plus Boro that will make a 27,500 plus crowd.
I think we will have over 26,000 home fans. Had 24,000 against Cardiff for midweek so reckon few more k with our form and being On a Saturday. There always loud even with small numbers should be a good test for us there not the mugs they were last season
 
It be a strange match, there will be a love in between big group of Boro and Brum who go to all the England games home and away, expect some hospitality boxes to be taken over by these mixed groups , but outside the stadium there will be mayhem, Brum youngsters don't take any prisoners so that will flare , more so than the Derby Co match did.

We'll have significantly over that, I suspect, at least officially.

We have at least 21,000 seasons ticket holders, Cardiff only brought 283 fans and our official attendance was 24,276 on a Tuesday night.

We're now back in form, on the back of a huge win, it's on a Saturday afternoon and there's actually a substantial away following for once.

I think 27-28k.

Really, didn't think there was any needle between us and Brum?
Neve noticed any problems down there in recent times( or up here for that matter).
