    I know what you mean, but Notts County v Mansfield is the right game to go for. Plus Police will want it moved anyhow.

    We need to be careful. Fans of other clubs will be accusing Sky of having a love-in with us...:eyes:

    Mansfield Town received, and sold, 3,888 tickets for this Saturday's Sky match.

    If the demand is there, we should be able to get the same number of tickets.

    They give the whole side stands now, it used to be behind the goal.

    I'm not sure sure we would took as many as 3,888 tickets, but if we play like we did in the last two rather than the previous 10 then interest might grow.

    You are been sarcastic of course.

    Notts County and Mansfield are local rivals, with a large fan base. The atmosphere will be electric. Which is something you can't say when Salford send their 200 to support them.

    Got England v Malta the night before at Wembley.
    Looking like driving back to Nottingham after the match with the boys and stopping over for the lunchtime kick off at Meadow Lane might be in order.

    From a TV point of view, other than the pleasure of watching ex-Man U legends squirm in their seats, I can't see a logical reason to put Salford on TV - unless they're playing Stockport or perhaps us.

    I watched their game against Northampton last season, there was zero atmosphere.

    Grrr. This was on our go to away list but now off. Son is busy early Saturday mornings so it will be the tv for us. I could go on my own, but it's not the same.

    Sadly, I'd have to agree.

    I think without the TV we sell out but the early kick off will mean we'll likely only take around 2000 - 2500.

    We didn’t take anywhere near that the last time we played them in League 1. Not sure what the attraction is this time in league 2

    Which year? First game of season when we lost 5-0?
    We didn’t take 4000 to that game pal.
