Not a chance, even if it was a fiver. A Premier League reserve match would be better quality football

Any STH's not going tonight should be bloody ashamed of themselves and liable to be slapped in the face with a plastic 'Bring it on' poster.

I had to pay £2 to watch a Henley Town vs Didcot pre-season game so this is relatively cheap.

My season ticket covers first team games and not the reserves.

Premier league team-Division 2 level support!
I am driving from Lands End for this game under the threat of divorce and some moderators cannot even be bothered to leave the dubious delights of the Oxford Road. One can only despair.

Please ensure you take your seat quietly if you are late, Y25 won't put up with the verbal abuse like those yoghurt knitters in the Villa away end

I dropped my flask, rug and sandwiches as I entered Villa park. I was tired and emotional having driven all the way from John o Groats.

Worth watching what the total is tonight then, if its well below 12k then I think the clubs 20 point royalty scheme has failed miserably.

How'd you workthat out? If 12,000 people have paid £8 then I'd say the club will be quite happy regardless of whether they turn up or not.

If this had had a normal Royalty Point total, I doubt that many would have purchased tickets.

I think STH's not going tonight should be deducted 20 Royalty points and made to write 'I am a splastic' one thousand times in crayon on a Loud and Proud poster whilst wearing a hair shirt.

Bolton or Boro will probably have had fewer in Europe at some point.
