I realise this thread was made to poke fun at Drakeford but how many tickets do you think we'd be given?

If I remember we took nearly the whole away end the year we played them in the league cup when Darren Purse scored

I think Premier League away fan rules are 3000 minimum if stadium is 30,000 or less or 10% if greater. So roughly 5300 for Anfield. Not sure if theres any deviation to this as its a cup game though. There must also be some caveat to increase this if the demand is there I would have thought.

Fa cup is 15% of capacity so it works out a little over 8000. I really hope we sell out

I believe for FA Cup ties it’s 15% of capacity allocated to the away fans so should be approx 8000 tickets which is what Shrewsbury were given.

Yes Terry, I just googled an it seems like 15% so 8000. I've just read it's on the Friday but just a comment on FB.

I think Anfield is a bit sneaky as about 1/3 of the 8000 are restricted view tickets

He'll sh1t his pants before the game takes place. The WRU are about to roast his @rse
Todays figures are all down again according to the bbc.

So it seems that the one who called it right was Boris Johnson not Mark Drakeford. Maybe he should stand up and apologise to the Nation - and then consider his position as not only is he out of his depth - he's lost the dressing room.

Maybe he will put road blocks on the A470 and Offas Dyke. Knowing him he will put a charge on leaving Wales. FFS sake man - just go - and take your ill fitting suit with you.

Surely this drip must change his mind after the figures out showing they’re down and not going towards a peak like he said

He'll have to fold soon. He's lost the battle of the argument completely. he just needs to wipe the egg off his face , apologise to the country and go back to being a social worker.

8000!, What about the 5K taffies who support their local team, Liverpool. Many a Welshman especially Gogs support the pwl.

He'll fold for the six nations

The entire stand where away fans go is 9100, maybe they’ll just give us the whole stand?
