So far, 1,200 home tickets sold.
Bristol Rovers have sold 1,700.
Maybe we should give them the home end  |  |

And yesterday I paid £9 to watch Egham Town on the most dreadful football pitch this side of Cockfosters. |
It's the booking fee that puts me off plus travelling down only to find Washington
and co playing. |  | | |

I am only going because I have old friends from Bristol who have come up for the match - a whole family, and we're meeting before the game. I will be sitting alone among empty seats in SAR but it will probably be a great atmosphere in their end. |  | | |

I don't buy this the tickets are not cheap enough lark, I have paid £15 for 4 tickets!!! 1 adult, a 19 year old, 10 year old and a 9 year old. How much cheaper do people want it! People are just using that as an excuse
Our support is very limited these days and we have a very small fan base that is the issue |  |

The fanbase hasn't changed that much. What's changed is the proportion of the fanbase which goes to each match. At the Bristol City game I doubt if there were many more than 9,000 there with most of the rest of the supposed attendance figure 11,739 season ticket holders who didn't bother to turn up.
People live all over. Does £10 or £5 really make that much difference compared to travel and other costs?
Fans have got wise to the fact that the team put out by almost all clubs is likely to be significantly different to a first eleven. In many cases there are 8 or 9 changes. It's a squad game. Managers have to give squad players some motivation and a chance to force their way into the team. It also gives a chance for players to recover from minor knocks. So, all in all, watching cup games has often become a frustrating and low quality experience for fans. One they have learnt to dodge. | | | |

I think the issue is that people (myself included) just can't be arsed with it. |  | | |

Dear Mr Hoos
I am writing to express my anger and disappointment. Having paid for my ticket plus booking fee, I travelled to Loftus Road on Tuesday night only to find QPR playing. QP-Bloody-R! |  | | |

Its also probably a lot of people like me...i just wont pay anything to watch us in an early round cup game. We nearly always lose and barely perform. You get to watch a team reserve players in front of a few thousand people. It just doesnt tick many of the reasons as to why i go to every league game. | | | |

I paid £10 to see Dulwich Hamlet 2/3 years ago.
The last league cup game I went to was vs Man City. SWP ripping us a new one and David Seaman saying goodbye to LR. |  |

Correct |
Also, our record has been so abysmal in cups. We all know how bad it's been. What is it, 1 win in 200 cup games? So to me at least, cups don't even exist on the football calendar any more. I just can't bear the constant disappointment of them and prefer to pretend they aren't real. |  | | |

"1 win in 200 cup games"
I mean, we've won 3 of the last 7 cup games we've played  | | | |

That's good for you, but if I want to buy one today it's £18.50.
Edit: just had a look at the website and there's no info at all on whether it's possible to walk up and buy a ticket after 5pm when the box office closes. [Post edited 28 Aug 2018 15:33]

Have to say, I think the reason for supporters' apathy for cup games lies fairly and squarely with the clubs over the last 15-20 years, using the cop out of prioritising the league and putting out teams that have "couldn't care less" written all over them.
Unfair to blame the fans when they finally get the message. |  | | |

Interestingly, to me anyway, Fulham and Brentford are also playing at home this evening. Attendance figures shall be noted. | |

Now 4 out of last 8.
Like I said the other day, if we go further in the Cup there will be people moaning they can't get a ticket if we draw a premier league club at home. | | | |

It’s open until KO on match days. Always has been I think. I bought a Peterborough ticket on the night. | | | |
