Bring it on. What do you think my chances are of getting 2 tickets? Relocated back to NE recently but not a season ticket holder and don't have many points.

Excellent chance, it won't sell out.

Can't tell if you're being sarcastic or not

I think it’s a guaranteed sell out.

Straight up.

 

[Diego]

Straight up.

Why do you not think it will sell out? Spurs will sell out there big allocation and I’m sure we will sell out, the feel good factor, the fact we beat United, sell out in my eyes.

 

[TeaCider]

I don't think it will sell out either.

We managed 26,000 on a weekend untelevised match against them 2 years ago.

This is a mid-week night time televised kick-off.

Hopefully we do though.

We were pretty crap then though although on a little good run. This feels different but we will see

Agree with this

I hope we do sell out, I'd love if we did, I just think the fact it's on free TV and a Tuesday night will knock thousands off the gate.

Just a gut feeling based on experience.
Happy to be proved wrong though.

 

[Maccarone]

Big crowd though, gate receipts, TV revenue, music to the clubs ears.
Bring it on

I've not been to the Riverside in donkey's. Do they allow the fans to build up to the kickoff without being drowned out by inane music blasting out?

Spurs will be given whatever percentage FA rules state, so the atmosphere should be electric.

Are those saying it won't sell out the same people that said we had zero chance of shifting 9,500 Man Utd tickets at £46 a pop?

 

[Mr_Fridge]

No Matterface and Dixon

 

[Nobby_Barnes]

I will be attending with my notebook everyone

Will Shearer be countering Jug Lug's bias in the studio?

I'd quite like Jonathan Pearce to do the comms

No, I fully expected us to sell out the Man United match.

I think we'll set our highest attendance of the season against Spurs, I just don't think there's going to be 34,000 fans there.
Though a sell-out will be less than that with segregation.
