They were absurdly late last year. Our game at Salford didn't get confirmed for the Friday night until about nine games before.

Anyway, what do I need to know about Boreham Wood?

That their an absolute shithouse of a club,

 

[Super_horns]

St Albans v Carlisle on the Sunday now for BBC Final score coverage..

Drink in St. Albans and not in Borehamwood.

St Albans v Carlisle on the Sunday now for BBC Final score coverage..

That would have made a better TV game than Southport vs Fleetwood or Eastleigh vs Swindon. Maidstone vs Rochdale would have been another decent one.

 

[Harrier94]

Our game has been moved to the Sunday as well.

Slightly annoying. Home crowd bound to be even smaller now.

I imagine they'll be even more annoyed with it as both teams will get TV money. But with ticket prices reduced there may be more home fans who don't regularly attend games. And with us putting on cheap travel hopefully the away attendance will be big.

The boycott is annoying for us as we get a split of the gate receipts so a small attendance isn't great for us.

It's near the Elstree studios. Which is excting if you like Eastenders or Holby City or other similar "high quality" tv productions....

If you're lucky you can catch a Big Brother live eviction after the game!

The rest of the games being "shown" live

The FA fee for extended highlights, live overseas broadcast or live single camera footge on a Sunday is £12,500 per Club.

Fantastic news for the real minnows involved, that sort of money could keep the likes of Stamford, Westfields, Alfreton and Taunton going for another year.

Turned over by Dover...FA Cup dreams end for Hillians...and a little local politics.

And then they add in Morecambe v Coventry...

Morecambe are an established non-league club, they'll be grateful for the money.

I want to question how on earth they may put in 2,000 people at Westfields

I mean its just a 100 seater stand and a white fence around a pitch!!

I find it very interesting to see how people will get around it, am so so so tempted to go, this is a proper FA cup away day for me.

For a second I thought there were some palm trees surrounding the pitch.

Step 5 grounds don't have to be fully enclosed.

Are we not suffering enough that you'd take that away from us?

Seriously though, it does seem a genuinely odd decision.
