Fooking hell, I go away for 5 months on the Sunday and this was going to be the last Alty game I go to for a while, however now it's been moved to the Sunday which means I can't go!

Gutted.

My nearest side, Merstham play in the Southn equivilent of teh Unibound Div 1 North so are a similar standard to Newcastle BS.
This may be a banana skin,  but if we cant beat them comfortably we may as well give up - even if forbid we return to early season standards.
Merstham charge £8 Adult and £5 for my 6 year old son - so it would be cheaper for me to watch Creapy Crawley as they charge £12 adult and no fee for the nipper - but I have principals !!!
Also I thought for FA Cup matches against teams from a higher division, the FA required home teams to raise their prices ? This definately use to be the case.
I know you are not allowed to lower admission charges, which also applies to CSC games.
Man U wanted to lower prices when they played Burton in order to fill OT for the replay, but Burton would not accept it.

Not only am I going, but I'm taking my 3-year old daughter with me, it's her birthday a few days before so it is a treat for her (I hope!)

She has to be the most spoilt little girl on the North East

I'm a Blue Star fan and I'm surprised it's been  moved to the Sunday. The Rugby cub are playing on the Friday night and Newcastle are away at Blunderland so it won't effect that gate, the mackems only give us 2500 tickets. I'm also a toon season ticket holder and i've got a ticket for the stadium of sh@te but I was going to give it to a mate in preference of waching on TV first and then watch you mancs get a good kicking for 90 minutes afterwards!!!

Mancs? You've opened a can of worms there mate. You'll be getting slagged off shortly by the oldies who remember the days of Altrincham being under the jurisdiction of Cheshire.

PS. Colin Little brace will mean Blue Star 1 - 2 Alty

Trafford Borough Council these days; Consequently we have the Metrolink, Greater Manchester Police, a vote on the congestion charge, the freedom to keep grammar schools and various other things.

However, we maintain the right to write Cheshire on our addresses

actually i was explainng that to one of the lads i took along on sunday. he's from north shields and says they have always objected to being in tyne and wear (its the wear part they object to) so he still writes nortumberland on his letters.

[Butty]

KNow nothing about them, except that FC United beat them 4-1 last season

I've asked around and NBS are no mugs, they are a very solid team with a couple of match winners in Brayson (sp?) + Nicholson.  Let's not take this for granted.

I still do....and I live in Scotland!

Indeed. Tow Law anyone?

[bigcol]

Oh another fascinating fact.

In 1985 NBS signed Trevor Brooking on a one-match deal for which he was paid £500, shortly after he retired.  They really wanted George Best, but I think he was in the pub or in a Miss World's bedroom at the time.
