I'm only going off the information in the email that was part of the offer... it could be that they haven't had the offer of all 5k taken up, but they were offered out...

Have just posted elsewhere, there'll be a big crowd tomorrow night. Club have given 5000 tickets to schools and charities across Sheffield to celebrate our 5000th game. These appear to be spread across the ends of the South Stand and West Stand Lower

You can expect a big crowd for this one... I got an email at work offering 50 free tickets to the game to distribute amongst families. The club have given 5000 tickets away for the match! Fantastic bit of community PR, just hope it gets shouted about!

Sorry that I can't offer you a ticket but I've just had a phone call from the ticket office offering me two spares. I'd put myself on the reserve list. Long shot but perhaps worth ringing them in the morning to see if they've got any left?

No worries mate, hope you get sorted

If you're in Sheffield and happy to collect you can have our 2 at face value... you'll have to come to us though as we have covid in the house...

Article says they aren't reserving seats because part of the ground is shut. ST holders have a priority window to buy any seat, not their own seat

Drove past the megastore car park yesterday and there are big lines of metal fencing/cones and a couple of gazebos set up. Does anyone know what's happening? Is a Coronavirus testing centre being set up? Or is this in preparation for the Gary Megson meet and greet?

Kick off was 7pm. Currently 2-0 to Wednesday. Rolando Aarons and Conor Grant scored

As a ref, the decision will be made by the official who has the better credibility in the situation. It might look as though the ref is leading the decision but that isn't the case. As mentioned above, they lead one another into a decision with discreet signals before raising arm/flag, and with the comms systems that EFL officials have, they also speak to one another. Even if it looks that way, it shouldn't be assumed that the assistant referee isn't making the call. Also, as fans I'm sure we'd rather them take a second and look this way than have the ref signal one way and the assistant contradict him, it would cause many more problems to the credibility and match control of the officials.

Ross Wallace's goal against Brighton at Hillsborough. I could've just posted the goal but where's the fun in that?!? Enjoy the highlights again:

Please spell Thorniley's name correctly. It's annoying me more than it should...

Really? I didn't know that - although I suppose you can see how with the roof arcing round to the west and kop

Baker - solid enough and seems to be improving. Seemed to want to take us forward and linked well with Preston (particularly in the first half.) He will benefit from 'bulking up' a bit and adding a more physical side to his game to combat stronger wingers that he'll come against. Even though it cost him a yellow, I'm glad he scythed down their lad - showed that he didn't like being mugged off Neilsen - again, a decent performance. Won a lot of balls in the air. What I did like tonight was that he seemed to be a lot more vocal than we've seen of him. Talked well with the rest of the defence and shouted at them a couple of times which is good to see from a young player. J Lee - good to see him get some game time. Often seemed to be playing as cover for Jones which he won't be asked to do very often for us but mopped up well. Tried to get his head up on the ball but Wolves started to press us when we got forwards in midfield so was often forced backwards/sideways but he didn't give the ball away softly too often. Preston - clever movement off the ball - kept trying to run in behind their full back and had the beating of him on a couple of occasions. Had the balls into him been of a higher quality, he would have found himself with a couple of big opportunities tonight. Stobbs - similar comments to Preston really. Inventive with his runs and tried to break between their lines well. I hope he gets a chance with us because he's been on the periphery of the first team for a while now (seem to remember him getting a couple of cameos at the end of the season when we played Wolves on the last day and filled 2 allocations...) Kirby - only played 5 minutes, not enough to tell. When he played up at Sunderland the other week he looked good though so hope he can carry on
