With Derby now asking for the whole 4800 tickets i hope Stokies get off their arses.
We the supporters have been the 12th man this season.
Lets not go all Billy Big Time and not bother.
In previous seasons we would have been jizzing at a Quarter final home draw.
Lets not let ourselves down and get out-supported for the night .
This will be their cup final.

On hold for 25 minutes when I phoned for my 4 tickets this morning so that's not a bad sign. If we can get 15,000+ for Rotherham in the 4th round we'll get a good turn out for Derby in the quarter final.

Derby County are working with Stoke City to acquire an extra batch of at least 500 tickets for the Carling Cup quarter-final after the initial 4,100 sold out within three days of going on sale.

I think the problem with the League Cup for us now is that we are trying to win it. It's much more exciting when you're in the lower leagues and, basically, hoping for a big game. We've really got to get to the final now for it to be massive.
If Arsenal, Spurs and Man Utd get through, as seems highly likely, it's hard to see how we could beat them over two legs.

Is it definate that you need to have been Rotherham to get tickets for this game.
Me and my mates all went, but we want to sit together for this game, and our season ticket seats aren't together. I'm a bit worried that we wont be able to get them, So thinking of going down today to buy them. But we paid on the gate last time, so we haven't according to Stoke been the last 2 cup games. We all have our stubs, but i haven't got all there stubs and some are working today. So will I be able get tickets or will I have wait til tomorrow when I have all their stubs

A-teen. You don't need your Rotherham stub to get a ticket, that looks like it may apply for the semi away leg. You will need your season ticket, and you can only buy 1 seat (normally your own) until they go on general sale. They will take a voucher from your ST, so make sure you have all the ticket books when you go to get them.

With a 'priority scheme' from the Rotherham United game not being used at this stage of the competition, the Club advise any supporters who have a stub from that fixture to retain it in the event of progression into the Semi-Final, where a 'priority scheme' may be implemented.

It's not beyond the realms of possibility though, if we beat Derby and get one of them away in the 1st leg and at home for the 2nd, we could go to somewhere like Spurs or against Uniteds kids, get a draw and bring em back to the Brit for the second leg and really get stuck into them, it's possible.

Yeah, it's possible. Watching us at Old Trafford, it really is an outside possibility, though. I'd be more confident if there wasn't such a chasm in our ability to win at home and away. If the first leg were away, you just know we'd be ultra-defensive and it would be a long, long ninety minutes.

Stan - if we beat Derby there is a high probability that we would get a "biggie" in the Semis. An "extra" game v Man Utd or Spurs would be a massive attraction - especially if the home leg was 2nd and it all rested on that. There is an opportunity here for the club to incentivise fans by saying hang on to your Derby stubs and get a seat guaranteed for the Semi.

Looking ok for a good attendance as there was a queue to get tickets when I went at about 1pm today. Hope you don't have to have Rotherham stubs for the semi (if we get there) as I have binned mine.... Cheers Adie

Rotherham ticket stubs will get priority over Derby ticket stubs if a Priority scheme is used for the Semis. That's according to the program on Saturday.

Its a great occasion but massive ? I personally think that every league game we play this season is 'bigger' than this game.

Its still a long time since we had a good cup run and at £15 a shot will give some local people the chance to go...who can't afford ST's or £30 a game that it costs in the Prem or £60 plus for the multi-ticket robbery..and thats why its going to have an absolutely cracking atmosphere' plenty of local Stokies giving it some... ...I'll be travelling up from Herefordshire just for this game (and travelling back the same night)..and I just hope its worth it...2 games away from Wembley...
