    It's the modern day Boxing Day record that will be broken. From what I can see online the current record is 21,874 against Scunthorpe in 2016 so even without away fans we will be very close, adding in 1,600+ away fans will mean an attendance of over 22,000.

    They've released more seats in the home end.

    They wouldn't be able to segregate fans on the TL Dallas

    The man in the middle for this game is Seb Stockbridge - not my favourite referee. Quite fussy, doesn’t let the game flow. Gave a penalty against Rory McArdle once when the ball hit him on the back.

    Yes we have had this guy a few times , always appears to be over fussy and the type that thinks we are paying to watch him.

    Looks smart!

    Would we have enough space to build this if the road behind away end was closed? Would that be allowed given the proximity of the terraced housing?

    The clowncil refused Big Geoff when he tried. Perhaps it may be different now ;)
