League Cup Carabao cup 3rd round - West Ham

[horseman]

It is the apathy of the fans that has allowed both of our domestic cups to become what they now are..You can also add 24/7 football on tv and the top sides being allowed to field virtual reserve sides.
Everyone has sat back watching the gap between the top table and lower down widen season by season and for some 12 sides fortunate to dine at the top table it's about survival and keeping the cash cow rolling in...to finish top 4 is now the aim of the Elite and considered success because of a further pot of gold awaiting them.

You now have situations similar to what we're seeing this coming week where West Ham are not considered an attraction for our own fans because it's not Man City or Liverpool which beggars belief because the chances of our fans seeing and dining with these clubs at the top table are virtual zero.
Don't complain when all you have is the likes of Accrington, Shrewsbury etc every week (with respect to them)

probably

 

[Sarge]

todays record away win should help sell some of the remaining as yet unsold cup tickets methinks?

 

[Oxford1996]

Be a shame if this don’t sell out now following a record breaking win today! Basically a free hit and then hopefully win our league game at home next week at home in front of a bigger than normal crowd

Would you be happier if only regular fans turned up for games like this ie a 7,000 crowd?

If the Blackburn game (a few years ago) is anything to go by then that will be the attendance on 75mins if we are a couple down.

Hammers enjoying a warm up against Manure with a 2 - 0 win.
Still, I'll bet they're quaking in their boots at the thought of facing the free scoring Yellows!! ? ?

They won’t need to, they’re pretty good at nausing league cup matches up as it is...?

Well done for this Curragh.

I'd normally be all over it, but only got back from Kefalonia a few days ago, although thankfully in time to be at Lincoln on Saturday. Let's hope we win and there's another game to dot count in the next round, where I'll be able to share the load.

Just sent you a PM. Hope you're well, and as ever regards to your Dad.

188 more sales today (as of 5.45pm) so we're up to an estimated 9818 with 1208 tickets remaining

130 in South Stand Upper
186 in East Stand (93 sales today so could conceivably sell out)
354 in North Stand
538 in South Stand Lower

 

[Bigfella72]

A mate of mine won two tickets for this match but has one anyway. Will sell both for £20 to get his money back for his ticket. He’s got to pick them up weds and no idea which part of the ground it is.
Any takers?

 

[Malc]

Yippee. Just heard that my bridge evening is cancelled. I will be watching, if iFollow are doing it.

 

[Yellow River]

Looks like it will be just short of a sell out.

KR indicated after the Lincoln game that there will be a rotation of the squad.
Highly likely that Mackie and Mousinho will both be rested.

What about Block 26?...with 1206 home tickets remaining thought we might have given this bock to West Ham by now. Can only see us selling 500 max from the 1200 that remain.

From what I've read from others on here I think you may be out of luck with that.

I have a ticket for the for the Unipart car park and shuttle bus which is a godsend for me because I struggle to get to evening matches before 6.30. I hope the club continue with this arrangement for evening games where a big cround is expected.
