Fair does that's not bad.

Home crowd of 2402. Still a few short of the 10-20K Vince reckons will travel to Wembley (apparently).

Yeah, there was a band on at the Comrades Club was the problem.

Regardless, was good to hear the New Lawn fans singing as well as I have heard it. Im sure Halifax fans sing louder but who cares, it was a great night, the Dover fans were a credit, and mingled well, I do hate the way that some teams seem incapable of having some neanderthal fans that can do that. Its been a fantastic season in Gloucestershire this year, just one more match to go!

Very good.

733 delighted mariners at Cressing Road today.

 

[Luke Imp]

Good numbers, but after all that hoo har about the initial allocation you didn't sell much above it?

Yeah i think the first leg result will have put a few off, although i saw someone on twitter this morning saying we'd sold 850+ so either that was rubbish or a few didn't bother going.

I think non-availability of tickets for London Mariners will have diminished numbers - unless they were scattered around the home areas.

Dover's following was very good - put's Glawster Rugby soccer XI and Braintree to shame. Wonder if the Glawster hordes will switch code and swell the Wembley numbers?

A bit of creative accounting going on somewhere there as we'd sold 820 by Friday evening!!

Roughly 1,400 Shell-shocked Boston fans in a crowd of 2,027 after we let slip a 2-0 first leg lead at North Ferriby. 5 visits to that place, 1 draw (which was a cup match and we lost the replay)

Nice little set up at Ferriby. Went there in the cup last year, and we lost.

Forest Green are Nailsworth/Stroud's club. Gloucester is a good 15 miles away and very few from here follow them. Whilst I'm sure there will be some uneducated oafs jumping on the bandwagon as you get everywhere it won't be that many.What will be happening right now is the employees of Ecotricity will be given cheap tickets and transport to bolster numbers at Wembley.

Wish we were, I work in the warehouse at one of their subsidiaries. Coach is only 25 quid which must be supported a bit but that's our lot afaik. My nephew will be coming who only makes a couple of games a year so on that logic we're take six thousand.
You're right about Gloucester having its own teams though.

 

[SRNP]

FGR wont take many, Grimbsy will take anywhere between 10-30k I reckon.

Think you need to change the upper bracket of the Grimsby estimate!
Between 10-15k i would guess.

Course you do, it's a one horse town, and Swampy is the mayor. o

Beats the car parts factory I used to work at. And he doesn't own the butchers.

25 quid for the coach? That seems quite expensive to me. Fairly sure it was only 20 for us to get to Gateshead.

Grimsby coaches to Wembley are £29.95.

National Express cashing in charging £43 though. I wonder how many Town fans will go for that option.

I'm going down on the train on Saturday both times as my brother live in Surrey.

*edit - just checked on National Express website and it says that the coach is sold out!!!!

Shows how often I get to London! It's twenty quid for me as a season ticket holder.

Around 150 Whitehawk in a (apparent) crowd of just under 2,000 on Sunday. Looked more like 2,500 to me - 3 of the 4 stands were near on full!

 

[PWoodStone]

250 delighted Fleet fans at Maidstone last night. We're going to piss this tinpot league.

The wink suggested I wasn't being serious! Not for one moment, did I think we would piss the league.
