Can it be so that the WBA are not selling tickets for this game, expecting us to turn up and pay on the gate, and hoping there are enough spaces for the number who turn up? I have a long drive to get there and would be disappointed to be told to "go away, we're full" Is this like the Southampton friendly last year when more of us turned up than they expected, and couldn't get into the game by kickoff, whilst stuffing tenners into the hands of kids manning the stiles.. The Forest fans are up for this game because of the expectations of a brand new team, money and glory - it could easily fill up quickly Any intelligence my friends? that isn't a separate question by the way  |

I would be willing to bet large amounts on the fact we will get nowhere near selling out capacity in our end!

If they sell out for an evening friendly I'll eat my "I Hate Forest" banner.

I cannot believe that the City Ground would sell out for a league game against Forest let alone a pre season friendly...

Take that many & we'd have done well. |

I'm not going because we have a band gig at a wedding. If you can't get in get yourself to Owthorpe and blag your way into the festivities.

I once blagged my way into the Custard Factory using a roll of gaffer tape and a 'Sound Engineer mate" line. It's the one and only time I've tried it and it worked! |

They don't need organisation. Did you know they won the European Cup? Twice.

I spoke to someone at the Albion ticket office yesterday. She said there were plenty of tickets left and the club would be returning lots on Friday. Can't imagine there will be a problem
