Barrow v Aston Villa

[andyg]

Gate money 45% each apparently.

We'll just have to get a big team away in round 3 then...

Already told my wife that - divorce on the way. Old Trafford here we come.

When is it?

Matches week commencing Aug 23rd, so it will be Tue or Wed.

[McMark]

45% to each club and 10% to the EFL Nick.

Holker street end will be given up to villa

Hopefully not, the club shouldn’t need to worry about ticket sales, give them the standard 600 tickets and let us sell 5000 or so

Thanks - Tuesday normally but could be a TV game on Wednesday.

Should help towards the transfer kitty !

Brilliant draw for the club.
This could also encourage some new support through the turnstiles that might become permanent !.

[PRR]

Will they be showing the game at Craven Park on that big screen?

Imagine being a Barrow/Villa supporter and being away on holiday….as if that could really happen. Could it, anyone

Holker street end will be given up to villa

Not sure we will have to give them that amount of tickets, think they will only get the normal away section.

Why would they give that end to Villa when it will sell out with Barrow fans. Bloody hell we wait years for games like these. They’ll get the away allocation of 650 odd and thats their lot. Barrow fans will take up the rest.

I am over the moon with that. My wife's team she is not happy. Am already taunting the Brummies in my family. Do agree would have preferred it at Villa Park but if we get it on TV and Sky are already talking the game up so am hopeful we will make money. And yes give the Villa fans the Holker St End & get some sort of temporary stand up by the corner of the main stand - if allowed.

Again, why give up the HSE for Away fans. Barrow fans will take up these tickets. It’s a night for our fans who have waited years for a game like this

Spot on-The Holker End is sacred, (Cowps).

Cancel your holiday.

Barrow v Villa. Now that has got the romance of football all over it. What a night this will be.

[McMark]

Jack Grealish will be miffed, probably been waiting his whole career for a dream fixture like this.
