FA Cup Second Round draw

[NorthamptonBee]

Assuming you are right (and you nearly always are !) If Leeds/Northampton can be on the tele twice, why not us ?

Leeds means subscribers I'm afraid and Histon are doing well.

 

[Dangerous]

Barrow away for me please.

 

[bees52 bomber]

Only because its on your doorstep , new ground now i here ??????

 

[bees52 bomber]

Come on Eastbourne Borough, just down the road for me from home

Whats the capacity there doesnt look very large in fact small??????

 

[snowybee]

Whats the capacity there doesnt look very large in fact small??????

It holds 5644. I went there during their Doc Martens Eastern days...nice ground. I hope they beat Barrow....Priory Lane is just down the road for me.

 

[taybren]

Millwall vs Aldershot well if they beat rotherham

 

[casual]

EastBourne away please !!!!!!!!!!

That would be a squeeze. I went there to see them play Cambridge earlier in the season (frankly they looked awful on the day) and it seemed pretty full with barely 3,000 in. Some photos of the ground here;

[Wise old Bee]

Priory Lane has a capacity of 5,644 which reduces to 5,000 if there is segregation according to their website. Not sure what our allocation would be and how the distribution would work but these matters are not to be discussed here apparently. I don't think Barrow would provide any particular problems ticket-wise.

 

[NorthamptonBee]

When do they announce the games on the box?

 

[TW3Bee]

Sometime today I think, but they may wait until after the replays.

 

[Claire]

It was just after 1pm that we found out which first round games were being televised...so could bee similar this time round?

We'll never sell out at Barrow (as long as we get say 500+ allocation which they have to give us). Should just put them on General Sale straight away

Histon is an absolute gimme, followed I think by Leiston or Fleetwood. The third one is up for grabs though.

 

[wanderer paul]

knowing the history of Blyth Spartans and their cup record, i still think it will be Bournemouth v Blyth for one spot on TV.

 

[i love brentford]

How long would barrow take to drive?

 

[Gaz_Thomas]

Just looked where Barrow actaully is and its ****ing miles away !!!

According to Mulitmap.com - Distance: 287.45 miles, about 5 hours 30 mins

i thought going to chester on the coach was the end of the world. This is a different kettle of fish

 

[Claire]

Barrow is a pain in the arse to get to...we definatly wouldnt take many fans up there..The Northern Bees will bee out in force!

 

[macsalisbee]

Over 45 living in the past saddos first please???rofl

siddown you old fossil

lol this will be a game for the nutters, the ones who love the most obscure, furthest, dankest, non-league tour. I reckon we can get 350 up there. Can't wait (hopes all the talk about Barrow jinxes them and we end up at Eastbourne)

 

[jlove]

A bit like Leigh Park, Havant, then?

[Westlad]

Wonder how many we'd sell if we played Barrow away on Monday night (or Blyth would sell if their match was on Monday)

Bees on ITV please (if that's a Sunday k/o)...

 

[Claire]

Has it not been announced yet?

I dont think that we will bee on TV this time! No reason to!

 

[maddogging]

A bit like Leigh Park, Havant, then?

not at all, a pleasant 90minute journey on a Sunday afternoon is hardly the same as a potential cross country Saturday jaunt totalling 600 miles

 

[nick logan]

You have never done Carlisle, Hartlepool, Darlington and Plymouth on Tues nights then obviously.

 

[nick logan]

Well there is, the tv companies always look for a shock non league v league at home. Ours is one of the top 4-5 possibilities out of 3 choices.

Good times

 

[West Ealing Bee]

If I was looking objectively I would see Barrow v Brentford as ripe for a shock - given that we had a few issues with a team a tier lower

Having said that Setanta has chosen Tranmere v Accrington rather than Grays v Carlisle or Droylsden v Darlington or Altrincham v Luton so their priorities are obviously a little different :shrug:

 

[West Ealing Bee]

lol Grim trips if you do them in one day.

Good old Jim Walsh drove me to the night game at Carlisle in 86 (Bates debut). Fell asleep on way home, then woke up thinking we might be nearly home. I had only been asleep a little while, and saw a sign for Blackpool.

 

[NorthamptonBee]

So we are in the dark as to when they decide the TV games then.
