Do you lot reckon we'll sell our allocation out?

If we get 30,000 it is entirely possible we could sell out, though you just never know.

A semi final that is very near by for the supporters that live in Blackburn and surrounding areas. It's a semi final and 90 minutes away from a cup final, one of the biggest games in that last 12 years surely? If I hadn't been to a Rovers game in years I'd still want to go to this game. O.k. the prices are quite high compared to Ewood tickets, but it's a semi final!

Well i reckon about as big as the Arsenal Semi Final in Cardiff ;)

Slightly less than the Worthy Cup final maybe? Open to debate that one, still a cup is a cup. :rover:

What's OT like for parking?

I've heard it's £8 for the official car parks else "fiver to watch yer caaar mistah" from the local chavs.

The train (and therefore the pub) is looking tempting...

Last train back fom m/cr vic to to c/roe via Bolton, Darwen and B/bn is 9pm. If you miss that there's one at 4am! :wacko:

Would imagine trains run through the night to Brum.

United steward reckons we've got the Stretford End

http://boards.footymad.net/mboard/fmb.php?...;mid=2133796846

That link says East stand, Stretford End is West Stand, we'll presumably have the old K stand. It's the stand we were in for the league cup semi finals. Looking at the prices i've sat in the £35 ones at both ends and they were decent views and obviously the £45 corner ones are our usual spots. To be honest any apart from North stand tier 3 are decent view.

Quite a few lads at work are Mancs and have said in no uncertain terms that if they can get hold of tickets they'll be roaring Rovers on for the day....with the tie being played in the North West you just might be a liitle surprised at the ground swell of support for Rovers on the day.

For people that don't know the area i've always recommended the Lowry for parking, it was a fiver last I check and perfect location for getting away. However I was down there last year after it was murder for getting away presumably cos of the large numbers using it as opposed to a normal match day. Train probably best and a few beers.

If you want to drive I've always found parking at Ladywell Metrolink station (just off the M602) for free and taking the tram to Exchange Quay (£1.30 return) to be best. You can usually get on the first tram back as it's going out of the city. Once back at the car you're on the motorway in 2 minutes.
