York City.

Was talking about York game at dinner time in market hall cafe & saying it would be a good idea to reduce the admission a bit for it - maybe someone connected with the powers that be was ear-wigging? :)
Seriously though, good move by the club - bring 'em on!
 
good move as every little helps. I enjoy the fa cup and other cup competitions but I,m an old fart who remembers the good old days before these European leagues when everyone looked forward to the cup. I even remember when burnley were find for playing a weakened side before a fa cup game. times certainly have changed.
 
The new owner has discussed this at the supporters club meeting. I do get the feeling he wants to do something to get people in the ground. watch the space
 
I know a cup run can be a distraction but winning becomes a habit plus £18000 prize money plus home ties with good gates can be a good earner now being debt free no longer just lost in a pile of debt, a good money earning run could just push our club that much further here,s hoping we get 1600+ home fans on saturday to get behind the lads and get a positive result.
 
HopeTom and Liam have a good week in training,with dean suspended,great opportunity to grab a shirt and put a performance in to make team selection difficult for Coley.
 
Both clubs have to agree, can't see Chelsea agreeing to it in the 3rd round :)

The home club set the price, the away club gets no say, and that has been the case for a while now in the FA Cup.

"Competition Proper

Immediately after the draw is known, the Club playing at home shall decide on the prices of admission, subject to a minimum price of £10.00 for all spectators other than concessions."

I was normally the smaller club wanting higher prices that caused disputes over ticket prices. Stanley could charge £10 at home v Chelsea in the FACC as a reward to the fans, but it would never happen.
 
I see York have appointed their new manager, Jackie McNamara? Don't know much about him except he 'parted company' as they say with Dundee United in September - could it be that the new gaffer syndrome will come into play on Saturday?
Should be a good game, hopefully the reduced admission will help us get a decent gate & fingers crossed that come 5pm on Saturday we're in the hat for the next round.
 
Anybody heard or read wether Joe Wright and Brad Haliday have been given the ok by their clubs to play for us in the cup.
 
The Fishy item about Mr.Mooney implies that Halliday is available and the latest news (a smiling Professor, just for Mysteron?) suggests other defenders are back from injury/illness.
It will be a very tough match tomorrow. The Minstermen will be out to impress their new manager, and no League 2 side can be taken for granted, home or away.
