Hi everybody

First of all may I wish you a safe journey to Sheffield and back and whilst I hope you enjoy the match (i think it will be a belter!) obviously I want you to go away empty-handed

Apparently you have been allocated 1,600 tickets only. Some of your fan are having a go at the club it seems.

Well, it isn't the club that's limiting your tickets; you can blame Scared (South) Yorkshire Police and some august body called the Safety Advisory Group.

The latter include some Sheffield Council people who I think have never been to a football match in their lives.

That loses us substantial revenue and they do it all the time - closet Pig fans you see

Anyway, enjoy Sheffield, enjoy the good real ale in some very nice friendly pubs and above all, be safe!
