Well as much as I am excited about the FA Cup we mustn't forget about Histon.

 Another BIG game for us where we might have a chance of getting something.  Funny how this season I much prefer being away from Moss Lane so no reason why we can't get something out of this ?

So get to Histon and cheer the lads on ..Lets take another good away following and sing our hearts out for the lads ...  COME ON ALTY

Although the attendance may be reduced substantially by the appalling chaos at Gatehouse Lane. According to the Laidlarmeister:

"Early work on the guided bus scheme in Histon is causing road chaos. A Histon shop owner has claimed that too few diversion signs were put up to warn drivers... As a result the 16-week project to create a new level crossing in Gatehouse Lane has got off to a disastrous start... cars turning down the road at the junction with High Street and School Hill don't know the road is now closed... cars and lorries have been forced to do dangerous three point turns on the narrow lane... A county council spokeswoman said: 'We have put up 20 signs in Cottenham, Histon, Impington and near the A14 warning motorists about the work, but if people want us to put up further signs then we will do our best'".

I have long suspected that the concept of a guided bus scheme was a recipe for disaster.
Put some more signs up! That's what I say.

Can't see why .. Would imagine a good 100 or so will make the trip .. So what was Vics excuse for taking 20 to Aldershot, FA Cup hadn't started for your boys then  ;)

And why would a home FA Cup game take fans off an away game ? Surely the fans that go away matches would do whether it was the FA Cup or Bob Lord Tophy on Satdee ?

I personally think that 150 is a relatively modest away following for such a nearby game especially in the FA Cup.

Ha ha ha ha!

We brought 500 to your place on a Tuesday night and you're not telling me you brought that to Moss Lane. Your home turnout was absolutely woeful that night.

Bear in mind also that you had one coach at £5 per person and another at £3 per person and you still only took 150!
