Well done eastleigh great gesture. They probably lost money on a gate of 889 too

Was it free to get in again.

Most of the Harrogate fans there were army lads who to be fair to them made great noise. But there was definitely 800-850 shaymen there as we filled up the stand that went the whole end of the pitch. Plus some town fans got turned away because there was too many! Bit of a poor do really from Harrogate

If there were 800 - 850 there then i'm not sure why they were turning others away as we played there at the same stage last year and took 1000 with no problems at all and none turned away.

I believe it was because
1) they see us to be as bad as millwall fans
2) there was a lot of army lads there so it was a large attendance I would put at around 2500 and I imagine they didn't have as many there against you as they did for us.

Holy crap why was the attendance so poor? they had over 2,200 against us last week.

Not an attractive draw and of course it's not included on your season ticket. Same reason our gate was only 1,400.

You can't give free tickets out EVERY week.

Well it seems us and Forest Green have a game on FA Cup 1st round weekend. Our match at the vegans has been moved from 29th November to 5th November

Bollocks, I'm away until the seventh and was missing enough games as it was. Saves you the trek on a Tuesday night at least.

 

[Pliny Harris]

What a shitey draw! Hope Dagenham aren't up for that one.

 

[Monkey Tennis]

Any Taunton or Hemel Hempstead fans?

 

[Silver Stone]

Rochdale at home then. Crap.

 

[Master D]

Hartlepool. I've heard of them.

 

[Benfcht]

Dagenham away. It's a curse.

 

[Sparrow]

Stockport away if we beat Torquay tomorrow. Not a disaster.

 

[Mark kavanagh]

Bet borehamwood let cameras in for the fa cup

 

[Leewilson]

Home to FC Halifax. Rather pleased with that. A good opportunity to progress.

 

[appletablepenny]

Fookin awful draw that. I don't think we've ever won at Guiseley, Rankine to score the winner, assisted by Nicky Clee. Lincoln's a shite drive.

 

[Blue Lion]

Away to Walsall. Good draw that.

Having seen the 1st round draw i'm glad we're out now - i'd much rather go to yours for a league game than go to Braintree in the cup!

 

[LeWhites]

Cambridge away.

Good day out and winnable. Slightly underwhelming though

 

[DarkSithLord]

Home to Newport should we beat Gateshead. Happy with that its winnable and its at home!
Plus we have beaten Newport before in front of the Premier Sports TV cameras.

 

[EnglishRed]

Great. So IF we beat Stamford we get a long trip to a club who should comfortably beat us in front of a smaller crowd than we normally get.

No money no cup run.

 

[Pliny Harris]

Hoping you'll think we're a banch a mags, as I'm sure is the parlance over there, ahem.

New ground for me, possibly a chance to have a weekend in the capital and visit a few exiled chums.

 

[GodsGift]

Quite happy with that.

Sutton drew Dartford away which is hardly a plum tie but I'd have loved to be still in it tbh. Boo hoo.

Not at all. We played Wealdstone at the weekend and they were alright, certainly showed more than the likes of Southport and Guiseley this season. You're in a tougher league than Wealstone and going alright so I'm expecting a competitive game but one I know we'll win if we play like we can.

 

[Sparrow]

Plus we have beaten Newport before in front of the Premier Sports TV cameras.

That could be the difference.

 

[Greenacres]

Hard to chose where the TV cameras might go, far too many games with the lower ranked team playing away from home. I wouldn't be surprised if they go for either Eastleigh or Southport, possibly Westfields if York make it through their replay.

Hartlepool V Stamford?
