Thats what I thought aswell, less away fans the better, as proved today!!!, may get more in gate receipts but lose it elsewhere, on handling large away support.

The Rozzers will be the guilty party there

I was really proud of our supporters today.

As for Lutons fans, for their numbers they didnt make much noise, i've certainly heard louder support from away fans this season.

Agreed, only into the last 10 mintues they actually made some real noise, still dissapointed in the home vocal support at times though!

I think we are going to have that half of the north stand now, also on Oxford's forum, they're talking about 2800 tickets so we must have told them they'll get that, let's hope we get that for home fans (if not more) and get around 6000 for this one. 1 thing for sure though is that it will be a superb atmosphere at both games, should be 11k for the game at the kassam!

3 words: NOT A CHANCE!!!! I think about 2000 is about the top estimate of what we will get in the play offs.

As i was unable to make it to day, must i both commend the commentry on Radio Diamonds. I have been fairly critical in the past but today was brilliant, and the guy at the end, was it Pete, who was describing the morons, summed up the thoughts i was having perfectly.

I would also like to say that it was great to be able to hear our support so easily on the microphones. We may have been outnumbered, and i guess there were more mics near the deBanke, but even so you guys still need to make noise, and it sounded good to me. Let's hope we can get a fantastic atmosphere v Poxford...
