Pessimist- we will go straight through to the 4Th Round.

Sorry about that Cashy, silly me. BUT, should United manage a draw, I don't want to fly 5000 miles and miss the outcome. Any guesses on a replay date. IF!

Wednesday 14th is most likely due to a Sunday game before hand.

If it's any consolation to us sat here twiddling our thumbs instead of playing Man Utd i think the game would've been called off. It's only just above freezing outside so no doubt that part of the pitch in front of the main stand would still be frosty and i couldn't see any referee giving it the go ahead. Especially with multi multi million pound pampered players at risk.

Better not let Buzzer hear you say that...

He'd understand. Just like last Sunday all his best efforts would've been in vain as the twonk ref would've been even more twitchy than last weeks twonk ref!

Point taken

IF the tie (or any TV tie) were to be played at the SFS; the FA would bring in a specialised company to ensure the tie would take place. The contractors were are the replay ready to put the necessary infrastructure in place.

When FC United played Brighton in a replay some years ago; the gorund was covered in a heated tent for around a week.

Buzzer could have cut the grass under the tent!!

What are the chances of getting them in once a month in case we get a big draw in the future

It can't be that hard to identify our regulars.

There should be no way any of our regular fans should miss this game as we should be able to offer all regular home fans 2 tickets and still have spare capacity for more. Remember the flexitickets are also season tickets or so it says so make sure I get my ticket

.

Regarding sponsors, that's part of the FA Cup and it's the same with all big games. Money talks and that is why they pay extra whether we agree with it or not. There are always people who get tickets because of money just make sure they are paying top whack for it!

As I say, we can live in hope but lets not make too many plans until we have beaten Yeovil. Then we can argue about who gets tickets and how many.

Commemorative tickets for sale - Accrington Stanley FC

Which pillock of a programmer decided to screen the most boring of FA cup games today - Arsenal v Hull, when you can see them every blooming week on the so called match of the day? Idiots.
