v Preston (a) - 22/4/23 - 17:30 k/o

4.5k tickets given. Do we think we will sell out before open sale at £28 a ticket?

We don't usually to be fair but away following have been strong lately.

[Mattyblue]

Christ knows with Rovers away followings, tickets could fly out just to ST holders, or it could spend a week on open sale. Neither would surprise me. Sky coverage may slow sales down.

Interesting that they've only given 4.5k when the end holds 5.5k.

[JHRover]

I expect with it being high end price wise and particularly being on TV that it will knock a few off the numbers. Would expect 4000 or so, maybe a sell out at 4500.

[SIMON GARNERS 194]

Potential huge game for both sides..these Lillywhite gobshytes have closed the gap.

I think it will get to open sale with being on Sky, but you never know. I do think though that the minute it hits open sale it will sell as there will be loads of groups wanting to go to this.

It's on my birthday, so I hope they go on open sale and that I manage to get one.

[Hasta]

Spicy local derby. Big away following. Good chance anyone who really wants tickets will definitely get one. What's not to love. 😉

[chaddyrovers]

Looking forward to this game and attending it. Easy to drive to and parked around the stadium

[tomphil]

We need to get winning a few games otherwise half that would be enough.

[Sparks Rover]

We need to change the habit of the season and not get overwhelmed in midfield.  Seems we bottle any game that means anything....I'd flood the middle with 3 in there.

3-5-2.

They may have "narrowed the gap", rather than closed it @SIMON GARNERS 194 ! But they've got an even worse Goal Difference (-7) than we have!

Ched Evans undergoing surgery for a life threatening condition. 

Wishing him a complete recovery.

Erm we pasted them in this fixture last season when it 'meant something', it'll be almost exactly a year on from that when we meet........

[sabino]

At least kids prices sensible. Unlike Burnley who charged us £18 for my 8 and 9 year old grandsons. What have we charged Burnley for similar?

I was actually on about this season, can you see from my post?

Hudders is sold out.

[philipl]

When this game comes round we will be happy play-off campers or desperate to get the show back on the road.

Either situation will spur sale of all the tickets.

[roversfan99]

Does anyone know how ticket sales are going?

[1864roverite]

I was told sales have gone past the 2k mark the other day ~ also that even if 4500 are sold pne unlikely to give us another 1000 to fill the away end

Thanks. Was this from the ticket office?

[Hasta]

I know a couple of groups waiting for open sale on Thursday. There will be a big surge on sales once it gets there.

Why, when we have always given them the full Darwen End allocation. Like Burnley, it should be knock for knock.

[Mattyblue]

The Dingles had 5,500 there for an 8pm KO, so why 4,500 for us?

Did it kick off, so police advice etc?

Let’s sell the 4500 out first before we start going all Dingley about it.
