I really hope we get a big gate for this one. We'll be there to see us go for a welcome piece of silverware and give the boys as much support as we can. At £6 for 'Seniors' like us it's a bargain!

Hope we go for it and put out a strong team.

The only big gates in recent years have been for County last season, and for Crewe's derby with Nantwich. I hope I'm wrong, but I suspect that talk of 1,500 plus may be a little optimistic.

I was thinking that too, but then, the Liverpool Senior Cup final between Marine and Runcorn Linnets had an attendance of 2561 at Widnes a few days ago. The Manchester Premier Cup final between Radcliffe and Wythenshawe Town had 1108 at FC United, which is more than the combined average support of both clubs, so there does seem to be some interest in county cups nowadays, at least in their final stages.

Just checked and I think you're right, DT. Sorry, thought it was too good to be true! 🤯

Its' £12 Adults and concessions and £6 under 18s.

whether it is a decent crowd largely depends on how many alty fans turn up for this one.  There were 2100 plus Alty fans at the ground last Saturday, so, with Congleton having sold well over 300 tickets now, we could easily have over 1500 there on Thursday.
