I usually go to the Peartree. But last time some bloke asked me to go into the toilet for a bit of dicky. I might go to the more civilised 76 bar.

And people will still turn up at the turnstile at 5 to 3 and expect to walk straight in. Could be a delayed kick off. Let's hope all the turnstile are working properly.

Right, thanks everyone for the advice about the login. Normally I get into the borotickets ground map immediately with no login. But I’ve logged in now, and sure enough all the remaining tickets were shown to me and I’ve managed to secure the two I needed for the ET. So cheers all. 👍

Ridiculous pass and pass completion stats.

Clearly like playing endless sideways balls just in front of their box, and out from the back.

I so hope Reid, Kemp and Roberts are fit and fired up for the press on our narrow pitch.

By the way Luton fans have been acting on the bird app, I’d assumed they were about 18th but they’re 7th, so nothing too disastrous from them.

It will be a different test Saturday, only the 2nd time this season we’ll come up against a squad better than ours (on paper) - excited for this one!

Anything other than top 2 is a failure for huge clubs like them with all the parachute millions sloshing around their huge squad.

They were exactly the same when we battled them in the Conference.

Entitled and living on past glories rather than facing reality. They're in L1 because they've collapsed two seasons on the trot. They are fragile.

And this post definitely won't come back to bite me on the arse at 5pm Saturday or at the end of the season.

Orient in the January.

Edit: This will be the eighth time we have had over 6k at a home league game. Three in the Conf, two in our L2 promotion season under Evans, two in our first season back in L1, and now this.

The Leyton Orient game 'sold out' (we were not allowed to sell the full number of seats in the North Stand, about 800 out of 1,400 IIRC, so there were loads of empty seats). Not sure if we've actually been allowed to sell all 1,400 now and so will be properly full?

Correct, as far as I still understand it.

Cannot recall the match (Bradford at home sticks in my mind - was there some incident with Andy Cook where a fan ran on to confront him?), and a couple of pyro incidents from the JBT during the games we were being scrutinised during, meant the SAG didn't sign off on the increase because they assess the ground as a whole and not just the one stand wanting to be increased.

Edit: Bloody glad that has all stopped now. That was annoying when that kept happening, and those involved kept insisting they were just having some fun and wouldn't have it that they were costing the club (despite the fines we got and the fact the reduced capacity of the Norf is costing us a few grand for this game alone).

Turns out we now have full allowance in the Norf then, which explains why we had so many kids in that stand for the Exeter game (the Norf was sold out that day ad a result apparently), in order to get the final sign off.

Great stuff. Hopefully lots of those who attended yesterday return for the Bradford match too.

The east wasn't as fully packed as i expected. I had room to breathe and the walk ways wern't occupied at all.

I guess we held back on filling the ground to the 8000 capacity?

That surprise me, a sell out but I am sure that even in some of the conferance days the East terrace was much more packed. Has the East capacity been reduced?

I'm sure it was reduced when we got into the football league as per below, the allowable numbers in the space in the FL was lower.

Definitely had many much more squashed times in the middle of the East Terrace than yesterday

Current capacity is ~7,318 (don't know the exact number of away seats lost to the camera in that stand, nor the exact number allowed in the terrace, but is around 2,700).

No, in the JBT, but the SAG assess the entire ground, so the issues in the JBT meant they didn't sign off on the Norf Stand capacity increase, so the Norf remains at 90%.
