As expected FC United, Didcot and Salford City the 3 TV matches.

FCUM reportedly NOT happy with having their tie vs the Spireites being selected for the Monday night broadcast.....

Fair play to FCUM. Great to see a team taking a principled stand.

This needs more media coverage, mind.

Got my Didcot Exeter ticket. Cash only so nipped in the club bar to get one. One couple sat in the corner, MTV on (when there was a live game on) and a bored barmaid polishing the pumps #cupfever She did tell me though that Exeter have been given 800, BT Sport will practically take over the club that weekend and no alcohol will be served whatsoever !

How much £ for the ticket?

How much £ for the ticket?

£15

[AthleticoSpizz]

3000 x £15......allowing for the Grecians share, still sounds good £ for Diddy. I think that as a (likelihood) one-off FA Cup game....£15 is a reasonable ask

I would've gone for a £20 sheeter

You would think......saw some dude on Twitter berating the club for raising the price from the usual £9

[AthleticoSpizz]

I don't do Twitter, but you might want to tweet back that........if it wasn't for days like these, there might not be a Didcot Town

They have had very little revenue stream since the FA Vase victory in 2005..........and of course, the odd Reading pre season

[AthleticoSpizz]

plus they could consider offering discounts/ future incentives for those that have actually attended through the rounds?

[Royalist]

FA Set the ticket prices at a tenner so to make sure enough cash is made for the away sides who get a cut of the tickets sold. It's hardly going to break the bank and most sides still in it charge £8 or £9 quid if in the lower leagues.

Lovely stuff from Salford

[CountryRoyal]

I watched the both parts of the documentary last night, not knowing they'd be on tele tonight. Great stuff.

[AthleticoSpizz]

Too convenient...the Salford documentary and tonight's game......what with the BBC now being based in Salford and all that.

However, great game and a cock- on well deserved victory


Good luck to Didcot

My favourite part was when that fan threw tea at the Notts County player.

"we don't like to see that"

No, we do, its brilliant.

[AthleticoSpizz]

Yay go Maidenhead! equaliser late late into e t

No shame on Didcot and 'stoke either

[Royalist]

Chesham and Whitehawk the stories of today but well done to Maidenhead too. Should be on the bt sport for the home tie i reckon

As the only non-league v League tie with the non-league team at home, it must be about as nailed on as it gets.

What would be a realistic capacity crowd at York Road these days, allowing for segregation etc?

... NL Directory has 4500 (400 seats) ; Wiki shows 3250 but reflects new seated stand of 550

... think 'Stripes' bar would struggle with any 4 figure crowd and congestion over in that corner near the burger kiosk would be a mite tricksy to steward!

[tmesis]

Yep. If I decide to go I'm definitely going to eat/drink in town before the game.
