FA Cup 3rd Rd Draw - Rotherham (H), 2pm Sunday 6th Jan 2019

Slightly off topic, but I’ve always been fascinated by that 64-65 campaign as despite the well-documented poor home attendances, our away following appears disproportionately high.

For example, Huddersfield Town recorded their highest attendance of the season against City, just a few weeks after the notorious 8,000 v Swindon at Maine Road.

It was a similar situation at the Baseball Ground, where aside from their home fixtures against the Top Two (Coventry and Northampton), the crowd against City was considerably higher than nearly all the other games.

Even at Rotherham, the crowd for the 0-0 was one of their biggest, and only a thousand less than the promotion game the following season.

Was that how if felt at the time, or did you sense that you were the only City fan inside Millmoor?
I would only have been 13 at that time,but I do remember lots of City fans away at Bolton,Rotherham, Huddersfield and Preston that season.
 
With where they are in the Championship table, I can't see them really giving this a go. Hopefully we'll see Brahim, Foden, Zinchenko, Muric all given starts. Would actually really like to see Sandler get some minutes if he's ready by then, but I trust Pep regardless.
 
Just had an email about the Wolves game being on a Monday night. Didn’t realise they had changed that. These night matches are a real pain in the arse.

Sunday 2pm sounds good to me.
