It's going to be a full house and you will get many faces from the past, the passion will return for this match I can assure to that. The stadium argument is a load of nonesense, it just needs to be 3/4 full at least. If you want to debate that, google our Derby match against the jacks in 2009, Leicester in the play offs and palace in the cup you can even throw in Man City in the premiership.
We will never replicate the toxic atmosphere at Ninian, but the noise levels in the games mentioned were the loudest I have heard following Cardiff.
Without doubt we need to rattle a few cages on the pitch but let's embrace a full house and the white hot atmosphere this is going to be.

A city fan since 1989 who wonders why in a city of 360k people our crowds are rubbish, except when Man City roll into town and they all show up? 17700 against Sunderland was a joke especially with the deals on season tickets

With that outlook the ground is sure to be rocking. But this is a big game.
