Wonder if the Hoff is coming again?
Hang on Hang on.
In the last few seasons there have been very few cup games we've been asked to stump up full whack for and yet the attendances have been poor. In our run to the final the gate against Villa was frankly embarrassing. So how come we have sold out v Watford? Can anybody explain? Or has my memory played tricks on me regarding ticket prices for cup games in the past?
Our fan base has increased. We are not in Europe or the League Cup. Reduced prices. Not on tv.
Edit: if we expand the ground, wewill get 60k in similar circumstances 10 years from now.
