Not a dig mate, but why is the away support so poor considering you took 11,000 to Old Trafford not so long ago Obviously gone to see United simple as that! Who would of thought then we would be in this sort of position now? nobody. That was our champions league final. Probably have around or just under 3k, not bad for 4k average home games but still hoped would sell out. Like I said mate not a dig, I used to live in Burton and although I would never 'jump ship' I keep a close eye on their progress, from what I know Ben and his family have run the club well, although they struck lucky with the Man U games paying off a huge Chuck of the cost of the Pirelli, and the master stroke of getting the use of St Georges for training has no doubt helped with attracting players, but how much further can The Albion realistically go and remain competitive both on and off the pitch, I don't think expansion to the ground is feasible, not logistically but more to do with the fact I don't think they'd fill it, corporate facility's need increasing for sure,anyway enough negativity, I think The Albion story has not been given nearly enough praise or media coverage when in reality it far outweighs the overhyped rubbish being coated all over FC United or Salford City, to do what The Albion have done is a real fairytale both on and off the pitch and could hit the jackpot at Doncaster ! Good Luck Brewers

I went to college/uni at Burton (live in Uttox), so have always had a bit of an interest in the Albion. Started going the Pirelli about 5 seasons ago when it doesnt clash with Stoke games, so I get to about 4 to 8 a season. I'll be in Donny on Sunday cheering them on. Fabulous footballing rise.

Come on Brewers!
Weird to think that in a couple of hours, they could only be one division below us.

I've got a soft spot for Walsall since I was punched in the snout whilst celebrating Stainrod's goal. I hope they go up.

Fletwood 2-0 up v Crewe. That'll go down well in Blackpool.

There's certainly been a bit of trouble after recent games between the two, and Walsall are Vale's bogey team. My post was more a tongue-in-cheek dig at the bellends of '93.

Port Vale 0-5 Walsall I feel happier about our alleged predicament. Two absolute screamers in amongst that lot, too.

Doncaster could be down to nine men here, without having anyone sent off.

Barnsley 4-1 up at Wigan. Not the best start to a title party.

It shows what a poor team Burton have become under Clough that they are struggling against a relegated team already down to 9-men.
It is going to be very messy for them next season.
