I know some are not too bothered with friendlies, and I know for some its tough to get to the cottage on a midweek night, but who is making the effort to get down to the Cottage tomorrow,
Hard to guess the attendance for tomorrow
I hate missing any home game so I will be there
Count me in, got my tickets as part of the bundle. Gonna head up early so I can get my name put on my shirt ready for the new season
I'm bringing old Father Sheepskin to this one. We'll start in the Hammy End, but the lure of a tartan blanket and some cocoa may make us end up in the Riverside. 092.gif
The cunning plan is to leave here about 11ish, bomb up the A35 to Romsey,do a little business, and then hope the M3 and M25 is clear to get me on the M40 to Banbury by 4. A quick yes/no/maybe and then a couple of hours to get past Barnes Bridge by 7ish so that I can find a spot facing the M3 for a quick exit. Train on Saturday which will be a relief of sorts.
Desperate to see some Football and potentially a good game so will be there!
Because of work I can't make the game I am defo going to the Parma game though & looking forward to it
Im going. Looking forward to seeing mesca play after hearing the gllowing reports about him.
I'm there, even taking my Brighton supporting son. Because all seats were all £7.50(I bought the Parma bundle), treated us to W section in the Riverside, see how the other half live.
Figured I'd get a seat in the Johnny Haynes stand as I've never been there, and friendlies are cheap. Kinda regretting it though, cos I'm pretty tall and vaguely recall there being comments about little legroom :P
I'm guessing it won't be too busy so I'll be able to move elsewhere.
Can't go tomorrow but shall be going to the Parma game - looking forward to seeing players like Cassano and biabiany
Me plus 3 .Riverside block W as well.First time in that stand for me.Maybe see you there MH we are in row O.only downside is my two sons are Arsenal fans and my son in law supports Manure
Sadly not, off with work to sunny Manchester for 2 weeks :(

The merits of the Riverside Stand have been well documented over the years on FoF so no need to revisit them. However, you should look forward to decent/clean bogs & the finest view from the concourse of any football ground. You might also want to wear an additional layer as it gets rather chilly for an evening kick-off.
Am in for both Betis and Parma. Trying out my new seat for size.

Row W tonight I think, wanted to get a birds eye view to better see the system and formation Jol has opted for this season, Saturday I opted for WL, close to the dug out, maybe hear some of the shouted instructions from the bench, find out if Jol is happy with the way the team are playing and responding to his instructions or doing their own thing.
3 generations of us going tonight and checking out our new ST seats in H block of the old stand.
Sitting in the old enclosure tonight - Upper tier of JH on Saturday

Unless there has been a monumental shift over the summer you won't be getting much from the dug out unless you can speak Spanish. 'He' tends to stand with his arms folded and stares a lot and goodness knows what his brother does for ninety minutes.
Blimey game hasn't started yet .................................
Yes, going, over the riverside tonight and Saturday, going to stand behind the dug out and shout abuse after we have no shots on goal 086.gif

Stuck? 15 minutes into the 1st half you'll be able to take your pick from the empty seats elsewhere. Someone on here the other day was saying we've sold 5,000 tickets. I wouldn't be suprised if there were twice that many there, but I reckon that'll be it. Sit where you like I reckon.

When I looked on Friday it looked like the Riverside was pretty well sold out except for S & Z end rows and the Hammy end looked 75% sold out H4 & H5, could be a good turn out tonight. I still remember the days you walk around from one end to the other along the riverbank so you could always be at the end Fulham were attacking, ahh those were the days

Could a lot of the sold tickets be season tickets? Or do they not work for friendlies?
Sorry guys, flying out to Belguim in the next few hours. But dont worry I be back for the Bettis game.
I hope to catch it somewhere on the interweb..... 049:gif
