Rhead and McNulty on the same pitch. It'll be like watching two hungover mechanics battle it out in a Sunday League game in Burnley.

From what I've seen of Rhead (recently) and McNulty (2 seasons ago), they're a cut above most Conference players and our dickheads who where calling Rhead a fat bastard the other week looked rightly stupid. I said to my mate I bet Rhead scores today and he duly obliged after 4 minutes.

I really don't understand why we give a shit about away fans getting wet. Especially if accommodating them means inconveniencing our own supporters.

That's exactly the dumb attitude that pisses people off. Last year Chester fans stood in the rain while a covered end was empty.

Believe me, the "sterile area" policy bugs Alty fans too.

Hey Aldershot fans, what (if any) segregation arrangements will there be tomorrow?

I'm not 100% sure, but as about 150+ are expected I assume you will have to yomp up the hill to the away turnstile, and you will get the uncovered terrace and away seats. Hopefully SF93 will be along will more details, that's his area of expertise, I restrict myself to cutting the pitch and other mundane tasks.

I think it will come down to what the "police intelligence" estimates (which are sometimes a bit over stated, although guess its better to overestimate than underestimate) suggest, if they think you will bring more than 100/150 then Redan Hill will be open, if they expect less you will come through turnstile 4 at the home end where you can use the home facilities but still need to go into a block of seats in the South Stand.

I don't actually know what the plan is for tomorrow, but as soon as I get to the ground about half 12 I will ask and post on here. How many are you expecting to bring?

EDIT - Just had a look on your website and it says that away fans should go to Turnstile 4 so you will be entering from the high street end (Turnstile 4 is next to the main ticket office)

Just back from Northwich v Chorley, pissing 0-0 wasn't it.

Chorley looked shite considering they are two divisions higher and have money behind them. Has Flitcroft surfaced anywhere yet because Jansen doesn't look half the manager IMO.

I see there are people on Deva Chat seriously suggesting Chester fans should be allocated the whole of the pop side, and that home fans go behind the Golf Road end or in the Main Stand.

Why not ......we usually outnumber yoos.

I think you're getting yourselves confused with Wrexham.

Don't forget your receipts, so we can reimburse your petrol / train ticket money as well. Thanks for your patronage.

 

[FGRJC]

We need more players Haha jesus!

Just got to the ground and been told you have to go in through turnstile 4 and you will be segregated in the south stand seats but can use the home bar in the south stand while in the ground

 

[Luke Imp]

Hearn out, Wood in is the only change to our starting XI.

Farman, Beevers, Waterfall, Howe, Bush, Wood, Tempest, Muldoon, Power, Hawkridge, Rhead

Subs - Grant, Everington, Hodge, Robinson, Simmons, Sparrow, Hearn.

 

[Deuce_Bigalow]

Dennis and Turnbull

Flash scores don't appear to have the live FA Cup scores. Where can we find them?

Kiddy and Torquay both losing.

 

[Deuce_Bigalow]

Stourbridge beating Kiddy oh dear

 

[Luke Imp]

Grimsby now losing.

We've not started well at Tranmere.

 

[CTFCfan99]

Kiddy now 2-0 down...

 

[Deuce_Bigalow]

Gateshead 1-0 down a home to Wourcester.

 

[Luke Imp]

Waterfall goal disallowed.

 

[Deuce_Bigalow]

3-1 at the Moss now at half time

 

[Harrier94]

I just can't be bothered anymore. I wish I could say they don't deserve the lead but we've not got out of our half

 

[Deuce_Bigalow]

3-2 game on

 

[Monkey Tennis]

Barrow down to 10 men at Fylde. 0-0, but unlikely to finish that way.

 

[CTFCfan99]

2-0 up now at Havant....and as I type Havant score, 2-1

 

[Deuce_Bigalow]

alty 1-0chester

 

[Luke Imp]

We obviously don't want a replay because we've brought Hearn on for a defender and gone 4-4-2.

 

[Bronx Mariner]

Grimsby 1-3 up at Harrogate. Sounds like we had a dodgy penalty to take the lead, but on top since then
