I thought York was the best newbuild ground I've been to so far
Awful.........if we relocated out of town to something like that, I would find it hard to drag myself along every fortnight.

I have been made aware of trouble caused by away fans from another club in the adjacent Mega Bowl. We had a pint in there pre-match due to lack of outlets and it was full of kids parties. Alty fans are well behaved so the few who were in there were respectful of the surroundings. However I know this season that one clubs fans stood on tables chanting and the place had to be evacuated after a smoke-bomb was let off.

It's an extraordinary place for a stadium. I walked past the indoor pool and through what appears to be a library. To get things right they need to improve the signage. As there were no club officials and I looked a bit puzzled a local chap told me the way to the away end. In reality that was the long way and I could taken the short way past the indoor golf and cinema. Soft and cuddly Alty are one thing, faffing about like that with other clubs is almost certain to end in a mess.

By the way, according to the figures provided by the FA, we've already blanked over £23k in prize money in our trophy run so far.
Winning the semi would boost that to almost £40k.

Lovely stuff.

An absolute farce Saturday.

Delayed KO, gates not working. Tickets not working. Having to stand in an aisle way because people just pushed through and in to stand with their mates.

Luckily the bump on my head was just that, after falling 5 steps after the goal because people rushed forward

The dangers of all seater stadium just there. That's not York's fault, all seaters are dangerous as soon as somebody at the front chooses to stand. All those seats become trip hazards.

York and the stadium mgmt screwed up on Saturday, but we're soft and cuddly Alty from leafy WA15, other clubs fans may have reacted differently.

Came across a few gripes on the York press site about queues to get in. York need to have a review of how the ticket sales were managed / assistance to get a circa 50% capacity crowd in.

I've decided to stay up in Yorkshire for this one.

York will put out a stronger 11, they need the points.

How can we get tickets?

That declared away attendance figure of 663 looks somewhat underreported to me though.

How the travelling Alty fans - officially numbered as 663 but looking and sounding a lot more - taken from the main site report.

I don't buy that 663 at all.

Great win, I suppose it's called game management but I found it very tense/infuriating with how deep we defended so early. We're always going to concede I wanted that third goal to kill them off.

Being positive on a positive day we wanted to win that more than them, we took our goals very well, beautiful finish for the second. Overall that was a thoroughly deserved win.

Anybody at home please.

I can't imagine playing a semi final in the Gateshead Stadium. Awful place to watch a game.

I don't think space is an issue. By moving our fans they have put a contingency in place, because they know there will be lots of empty seats available if more people turn up unexpectedly. Seems pretty sensible to me.
Unless they open up more sections, there are fewer seats in the three sections we've been moved to than in the two sections we originally had.

How hard is it to open another section, though?

With York's planning record, who knows?

Do York have undersoil heating?

Or heated seats?

No snow around York when I was driving past to Whitby this morning. Cold and damp but that's Yorkshire.

MUST play our strongest team and just hope we get no injuries.

My Scunny fan friend says that James Dean - the Scunny manager, not the dead actor! - is "Tactically out of his depth!"
We must be patient as they will make mistakes.
Agree JD, strongest team available should be played every game

Always in the league, cup and trophy. The csc, p'raps not.
