even with the free ticket offer, how many does everyone think will actually want to go?

its a long way, a pain to get to, and should be a non event as a match.

i reckon 2,000 tickets will be ample.

im probably going to be wrong though.

85 miles (in about 1hr 40m) is hardly Timbuktu is it !?! The A590 is a very good road now through some beautiful countryside. Sure beats driving along the M62.

As for the match being a non-event, well you HOPE it will be. Give us a bit of respect.
