This was posted on social media telling fans they need to be at their best for tomorrows game v Yeovil. Perhaps this would be better directed at the playing team and coaching staff?

I read almost 3,000 tickets (home & away) have been sold. Pleasantly surprised as it's now a dead rubber and after recent poor performances I am expecting more of the same with more than an eye on Wembley. It's not exactly cheap so I thought more people would have decided to save more money for the big day out.

It’s great that we all get the opportunity to share the day with family, friends and colleagues without anyone missing out.

I seem to recall you saying something similar about our team or are you conveniently forgetting that?
I have never said I wouldn't cross the road to watch the team .

I've certainly never said I wouldn't cross the road to watch **** . I'm talking about people who have never set foot inside the rec and never will . I missed 4 home games through choice since 1994 ss

Sorry if its been covered but as both teams play in stripes, will Red and Blue and Black and White be accepted or will one team have to play in a changed kit on the day ?

Red and blue does not clash with black and white

I agree, however, it would be very embarrassing if we only sold 3000 tickets for a prestigious final at Wembley.

I just hope we can take advantage by putting on a good display, win the trophy and attract more people to attend our games regularly next season. Although I'm not very confident given our current form, Spennymoor's current form and our historical performances in big games with big crowds.

Should be ok.
Newcastle v Palace has never been a problem.

Absolutely it's great that both teams will be able to play in their club colours
and Richard Walden puts the Shots 1-0 up against Man Utd

Just thought the dark stripe maybe a cause for some concern. Pleased as many a big game the Shots havent played in their home colours or bizarrley chosen not too.

The Man Utd one due to a Holdsworth superstition still grates.

Did we keep our whites for Rochdale and Carlisle in that cup run too?

Let's hope the players don't talk back to ref ,give any opportunities for silly cards . You get a red for a 50 50 fair enough but for gobbing off at the ref unforgivable

This was an embarrassment and showed a total disconnect and respect from the management and BOD to our supporters.
