Only 1300?  Felt there would be a lot more than that coming?

Well, they were never really that big a club were they? Probably a smaller club than Vale if it wasn’t for them being able to flog their expensive London land around Griffin Park to build a swanky new ground on cheaper waste land.

It wasn't a straight swop - the new ground has cost £71m to date (that price doesn't include the cost of the land).

I think their rise is more to do with the good fortune of having an owner who's a fan and worth many millions and was able to clear their debts, fund an innovative "moneyball" approach and fund a new stadium.

Bought ticket but can't go due to Covid-19 isolation. Important to avoid a heavy defeat by way of excellent effort and discipline. I think we are vulnerable in the air and Brentford are very strong at the far post. So please players at the back; don't stand there like lemons!

I'm gutted for you Warren and any other supporters who can't attend due to isolation and/or covid ill health.

As of 2 days ago - expecting closer to 1750.

I think thats a good effort for the size of club. Going to be great to see a biggish following in the away end rather than 1 coach and a taxi full.

Gives me something to shout at😀

Heard around 5k a couple of days ago. 

Think a lot will leave it until last minute before getting a ticket in case the game is called off, I’m looking to get mine today, left it until now as to see what happens. Disappointed if we don’t pull in over 9k tomorrow even with what is going on at the moment.

When did the Vale play in the top tier, never mind finish 5th?
