FA Cup 1st Round

Chesterfield making this look very easy.

 

[Saddlerrad]

Fuck sake, we will lose to Chesterfield and they will get a great draw in the next round, just you watch.

Don't be greedy, you've already had Chelsea this season

And Frank was ace. You know he was, he really was.

Thought you might like this clip then !

Nice for us to get through without any drama tonight, thought we played ok, did what we had to etc although maybe there was a cricket score for us had we really wanted it as they were really poor.

Shame it's Walsall in the next round and not sure it actually does us any favours being at home, we seem to do better on the road.

Port Vale's replay with Maidenhead is on BT Sport next Thursday, 7:30pm kick off.

Port Vale's replay with Maidenhead is on BT Sport next Thursday, 7:30pm kick off.

Meaning we'll play 3 games in 6 days. How ridiculous!

 

[LS Bantam]

BT also showing our game with Aldershot on the Wednesday night, but I'm sure you've all got it Sky+ already

 

[valefan16]

Glad its on TV but absolutely ridiculous to put it on Thursday. Potentially we could play 2 hour game and then 36 hours a league One game.

In the Europa League teams get to move their weekend game to the Sunday!

Gutted, was looking forward to another session in the Corn Dolly but can't do Wednesday because of work. Fuck off BT.

But you've got a game on the following Tuesday, so that would have to be moved too.

Aren't the Thursday games optional? In other words coverage can be offered but you are entitled to decline?

Seems to me you've took the £67500 and are aware of the consequences. Can't hurt our chances on the Saturday so I'm all for extra-time and a 10pm+ finish.

Only 34k and as with FCUM you can't decline.

I thought the replays on a Thursday were treated differently. Fair enough if not. Why less for replays? Seems odd.

Either way, suits us.

I dont know regarding the Thursday side of it to be honest, i assume it would be bad because of Maidenhead and the finance they would lose. If we use the money to get the striker on loan we so desperately need then i suppose it wont be too bad!

 

[DarkSithLord]

The attendance at Valley Parade tonight looks shocking.

The attendance at Valley Parade tonight looks shocking.

About 3,000.

Were you really expecting anymore for a 1st round FA Cup replay against Aldershot when it's on TV? Seen the weather, mush?

Yes thank you MUSH.

I was expecting more like 4-5,000.
Even with the weather and TV Coverage

£15 aswell! Foooook that!

What?! That's shocking on Bradford's part, but then they do need to make their money back on those free season tickets I suppose.

 

[mnb089mnb]

Prices are decided between both sides before the first game.

He knows that. He was hoping for a bite. Silly little muppet!

 

[F!RTHY]

Shite game btw!

 

[UTS]

You think £15 is bad? Rochdale are charging us £22 for the second round! And they've made it all ticket!

 

[DH84]

2,930 with 127 Aldershot fans was the crowd

 

[F!RTHY]

I expected less TBH! I genuinely didn't think we'd break 2,500.

TBH, at least it's a bit of a derby. It's also the second round and not a replay ...and I'm sure the weather will be much better on that Saturday afternoon.

Having said all that, if ticket prices were £10 for tonight's game like they should've been, I doubt the attendance will have been much higher.

No ones bothered.

Roll on Chesham United ........

 

[BCFC]

Into round two, unbeaten in eight, five clean sheets in a row, excellent first goal, I'm happy. Couldn't care less what the crowd was as I was there.

 

[darren gregory]

A 15,000 reduction in gate is humungous whatever the circumstances !!!

Jesus wept.

What were you expecting then, 10,000?
