simplythemostimportantkick Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Which end is the west stand ? Is it the end that was pay on the day last season or the bigger end ? Are we close to selling out yet does anyone know ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if they have returned to training, the Forest & West Ham lads wont be thrown straight in. Can Lang play (effectively) on his own up front?

It's the 'bigger' end that you needed a ticket for (the same end used when we had a couple of hundred locked out) last season.

oafc1955 Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 2568 as of 5.00pm today. Don’t think we’ll sell out now especially after two disappointing home performances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pinchme Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 As a newly rejuvenated latics fan (work and family commitments got in the way ) I'm now back following my team. So taking my Mrs as well to the Bury match and a few beers before. Is the town centre the place to have a few or better nearer the ground?

Wetherspoons and Two tubbs close to each other are alright. I believe the swan and cemetery on bury rd walking distance to the ground is decent and allows away fans. Rudemedic can probably offer better advice as I don’t frequent pubs anymore really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

West stand we’ve sold 1200+ in East Stand we’ve sold 1354 which is the first allocation of tickets they gave us Got about 800 tickets left, reckon we will shift 100/200 next couple of days. Unsure on POTD atm Both stands will be packed and bouncing so fans shouldn’t worry about being in a “non-atmospheric” stand Edited February 20, 2019 by OAFCBilly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It just seemed last season it was miles better at the opposite end to where I was. Maybe a case of the grass being greener ? Or maybe just my terrible memory and there might have been about 100 of us there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’ve done it the opposite way this year so the smaller stand which housed a couple of hundred POTDers last season is the one that’s sold out. There will be about 1,300 in each based on current sales. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kusunga_Is_God Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 I thought the east stand held about 1900. Must be taping some of it off next to the home fans Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monty Burns Posted February 21, 2019 Author Share Posted February 21, 2019 Saturday and Tuesday have cost us about 500 from the total for this IMO. If it goes POTD about 200 extra will travel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unsworthlatic Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 Weird one this...on paper it's sadly a routine home win. However, funnily enough I'm more relaxed about it following drawing with Crewe and losing to Morecambe. For me, we have to starve their midfield of possession. They have Mayor and O'Shea who basically do it all for them, so I think if we stop them, we stop Bury and they may have to resort to playing long. The way to do this, I think is, despite them playing with wingbacks and using the width, they do this to open up gaps in the middle so those two mentioned can roam. Therefore, i'd play a narrow diamond and make it a real battle in midfield. This would starve them of space and force them wide. Albeit, we may be caught 1v1 out wide, as long as you defend the box, we should be absolutely fine. I'd play: Iversen Hunt Clarke Edmundson Nepomuceno Missilou Maouche Branger Baxter Dearnley Lang The two strikers are basically to break with pace. If it doesn't work, you could always drop back into a 5, move Dearnley out one side and Branger out on the other. Just my thoughts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oafc1955 Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 They have two good wingers so Hunt & Nepo have to be switched on and Maouche, Branger, and Missilou will have to work very hard to minimise the threat from their midfield, especially Danny Mayor, if he gets time on the ball he will rip us a new one. We will need to keep the ball on the floor so Baxter, Lang and Dearnley will have to provide an outlet. I don’t want to see Edmundson & Clarke hoofing it up field at every opportunity! There are goals in that front two with Baxter behind but I don’t think there’ll be too many chances so when they do come they will have to make them count. Our last two home results have put a dampener on this game but there will still be a cracking atmosphere as the playoffs are still a possibility. Make no mistake it’s definitely a game we can win but we need an 8/10 from everyone of them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just my thoughts our midfeild isnt just oshea and mayor we have now signed Rossiter whose been immense since coming and Adams has 10 assists and deliverers more crosses than any other player in the football league. not too shabby. Be a cracking game and great atmosphere lads Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
