With the news of the cuts this week and people being concerned about the future (I am !!) I guess some people may be prioritising and saving their money?????

Being able to get tickets on the day may mean many have left it to the last minute to get their tickets, but I must admit, 350 is poor, VERY poor !!!

I disagree with it being a bad draw, how can an FA Cup tie against your nearest rivals who have only ever beaten us once be a bad thing? Ilkeston Town away, thats a bad draw !!! Why is a tie against the scum bad??????

For me personally, the FA Cup is about playing against teams we wouldn't usually play against, or going to places we haven't been to before / been to for years.

The only stage where drawing a Conference team could be considered a 'good' draw would be in the 2nd Round, with the prospect of playing against a Premiership team. Forget the fact it's a derby, the atmosphere will be as shite as it was last time.
They say we've lost our money we're not famous anymore.....

I think the atmosphere will be better than in Aug - the scum fans feel they have a real chance with the new man at the helm, plus they've improved of late AND they're due a win!!

An away draw in the 4th Q Round would be badly attended wherever it was, 150 away fans tops !! Being just down the road means we'll get more than anywhere else - I can't wait for it personally !! The day will be a blast !! :D

Let's face it, once you've been to Sheffield Wednesday, QPR and the Millenium Stadium, Ketterin aint exactly desirable :lol:
The club shop also had limited opening hours (people prefer not to order by phone and pay extra). We might make 500 I guess cos we only took just over 500 there in the league game this season.

They're not confined to the north stand. The three who stand behind me on the DeBanke every match suck through their teeth and will criticise every touch when 3-0 up.

You could have 140 years of no achievement, or twenty years of glorious victories, you decide.

One Dale Roberts.

Corby treated it as their big cup final in fairness though.
