Closes Tuesday night Overview
We've decided to do our bit in helping to achieve the now infamous "30.000" that The Warnock has requested and as such will offer a ticket to Saturday's game against West Ham to the winner of a hastily-arranged competition. We're trying to reward our loyal members, so we've listed the top posters from the month of February, taken out the two admins, and also the people who (to the best of my knowledge) are season ticket holders or couldn't attend for more obvious reasons of living overseas. In filtering out names thusly, we've selected the first 20 names that fit the bill.
Who can enter?
Here is the full list of top posters, as described above. The 20 names who can take part are in blue. The ones excluded are marked differently and reason given, but if I am mistaken in any of the cases, please let me know and feel free to add your entry to the competition.
How is the winner decided?
The winner will be the person to come closest to guessing the exact attendance at Tuesday night's Championship fixture - Derby County vs Nottingham Forest. If you are one of the users eligible, please leave a reply to this topic with your gate estimation. Entries up to kick off time (19:45) are accepted, and the attendance taken into consideration will be the one displayed on the BBC website in the match report page.
If there is a tie, the winner will be drawn at random out of the participants.
All the eligible users will be sent an email tonight notifying them of the competition and inviting them to enter. The winner will be contacted by email as soon as is possible on Wednesday to make arrangements for awarding the ticket.
Any questions ask, otherwise good luck to all!

Tell me about it. My image of myself took a nose dive once I saw my own posting figure for that month.

Thanks for the competition guys, great gesture.
I already have my tickets for the West Ham game, but I will pitch at 24,212 in the spirit of entering. In the unlikely event my guess is closest, please pass the ticket to the next closest guess.
Good Luck all.

Starting to feel a bit sorry for Bogdan and Sheepy, they'll be spending longer working out which guesses are in the competition and which are not than just finding a winner!
So, just for fun, I'll have 33,010

Forgot to mention. The reason I can't go is that it is my birthday - on St. Patrick's day. Won't be in a fit state to drive!!! (In the car or on the first tee.)
It seems a bit of a coincidence but someone said it was on St. Patrick's day last year as well, but I can't remember.

Good luck everyone
Whoever wins deserves it, we aint millionaires, but when we started this forum back in 2008 we always said it was for the fans, so it our way of keeping that promise

In my haste to rule myself out, I missed opportunity to thank the Admin team for running the competition.
I know a lot of people would get to ER more often if finance allowed and for myself, a trip costs £100+ even before ticket, so a comp would have been gratefully appreciated. Just can't do it on this occasion.
