    Have picked up a bit but still 9k unsold home tickets by my reckoning.

    Mostly in the North Stand above the away fans.

    Frustrating. We'd have sold loads more if given them

    I read earlier that someone posted about issues with SE trains from Victoria after a certain time.  If someone can direct me to the info I'd appreciate it as I wasn't aware and I need to get back to Bromley South after as I don't really want to lay out for a cab from Orpington home!

    I went on National Rail journey planner for trains back to Bromley after and there were no issues.  Business as usual.
    You're in Brazil

    Unfortunately, f****** West Ham and now this one.  Not happy.
    What's the Bromley spoons look like after the refurb?
    Not amazing, got air con now though but if anything it's a bit too cold.

    Bar a bit brighter, no one has pooed on the carpet yet to the best of my knowledge either.

    This will be a close game. 

    We have no strikers, well, we have expensive strikers but they are Dog and Duck level so nothing for CAFC to worry about. 

    The odd goal wins it and that could go either way. 
    I think Nathan Jones will say that he is "putting out a team to win the game".
    In reality I think he will make 6 or 7 changes to give hitherto bit part players and recovering injured some minutes.
    We may be competitive but personally I am not expecting an upset.
    It's a big night out for the fans nothing more, we won the one that mattered last Saturday.
    Yep and it's probably Spurs's best chance of a trophy....rather we beat PNE on Saturday.
    given we have no european football this season, its imperative we do well in the cups.  Simple as that.  I just hope our lot take the game seriously.  We have come unstuck so many times over the years where we underestimate lower league opposition.
    “Lower league” - we’re only four positions below you!

    What phase did this sell out in?

    Those who didn't get a ticket won't be happy to learn that we seem to have given somewhere in the region of 100 tickets away in the away end. To make matters worse, a lot of these people have never been inside a football stadium before and a few people are even kicking off about people standing in the safe standing section...

    How can we give away tickets for an away game? They have to be paid for by someone.

    If you are referring to Block 118, that were players family comps

    Those were the guys. Based on the behaviour I saw, our players need to be more selective about who they give their comps to.

    One of them showed up with so many prohibited items that they must have done it just to cause a scene.

    Then there were several arguments about people in front standing. They wouldn't accept that they were in a safe standing area and complained to the stewards about the fans then, when the stewards told them that it was indeed a safe standing area, argued with the stewards that it wasn't standing as there was a seat. They then also complained that the stewards were in the ground at all after not getting their way.

    The arrogance from some of them was unbelievable. 'Do you know who I am?' was commonly yelled at fans. The fact that they were there on free tickets, but expected paying fans to watch people's backs so that they could have a better view (on the rare occasion their eyes weren't glued to their phones), just makes it even worse.

    Whoever decided to designate safe standing seats at the back as player comps though has to take some responsibility. They should have been placed down the front.

    Why do players get comps? Especially for such a coveted game?

    So @AS1987 you’re referring to where Chuks, Tracy L and the players families were sitting? I was further down in front of them and never noticed any of this.

    Rightly or wrongly, away fans behind the goal almost always stand up.
    It's how it is.

    Can’t expect Chuks to stand up for 90 minutes. He wanted to sit down for the first 65 and then stand up for the rest of the game
