Still 2,000 tickets left for this game, so given there will be around 2,500 empty seats in the away section I don't think the crowd will be much over 26,000. |  |

Not surprising Nick.
Hastily rearranged mid week highest priced game.
Kids need to be at school tomorrow.
On TV.
Betfred already giving odds of 1/100 for us to finish in the top six.
Extra playoff games to pay for not forgetting the cost of an upcoming trip to Wembley.
If iess than 26000 is the gate it will hardly be surprising given the above. |  |

Evening atmosphere even with ground nowhere near full, often better as die hards who get behind the team in attendance, works the same for many away games |  | | |

Ill give another excuse to go, we are 17 games unbeaten and on the verge of securing a play off spot, maybe the kids cant go, but plenty of adults can go with most tickets left on sale at £30, that's only around £10 more than it would cost you to buy a terrace ticket to watch Eastleigh.
Yes there are extra play off games to play for, but the majority of the crowd will have paid a lot more than the price of a couple of home games and play off ticket prices.
Call me old fashioned but it the past when teams did well then the crowds increased, not decreased because there were more tickets to buy | |

Our average crowd for our promotion season 2011/12 when we finished 2nd was 26,000.
I'm not sure what the issue is?
You seem to like digging at your supporters Nick. | | | |

2011/12 was different times, we have a bigger core fanbase than back then and away supporter numbers were lower
Back in 2011/12 the average crowd up to March was around 25,000, in the final 4 home games of the season from end of March to end of April there was not a single crowd under 30,000.
As the team went towards promotion, the crowds rose.
Im not digging at anyone, Im just pointing out that we have one of our best sides in around 10 years, we are pushing for promotion, yet there are empty seats. | |

Empty seats will be for the reasons I originally listed Nick.
I don’t like it any more than you do but them’s the facts I’m afraid. | |

Is Blackburn's kit a tribute to Goldmember? | | | |

Well that went very well. We need to store a few to erode Ipswich's gd but it could be second. Thank you Skates. You shall play Spurs next season. | |

Liverpool knocked out of the Champions League by PSG, good night all round. | | | |

Routine win, but I thought we rode our luck a bit in the second half. I'd need to see it again but it looked like a blatant penalty for Blackburn when Manning pushed their striker over in the box.
Thought Archer was pretty good and deserved this goal
Respect to the Blackburn fans, good backing for their team on a Tuesday night |  |

That has to be Archers best game.
Blackburn were poor , I doubt we got out of 2nd gear.
Can we keep this going for a few more games and get 2nd. Millwall don’t have the worse run in so could be competition for 2nd. |  |

Agreed on Archer. His first goal at SMS this season.
Eckert needs his fringe players to be ready and motivated for the final push. We've been lucky with injuries this past month or so. That can always change.
As for Larin...Love that guy. | | | |

Hope Azaz is back for Saturday.
Matsuki did fine as his replacement, and great pass by him for the first goal.
But Azaz has been a big player for us of late. |  |
