Now, we are the 'big League club' and I'd like us to draw a non-League club away from home! Away at Buxton would be great. A team we played many times in the past and possibly a good choice to be on TV, so a cash boost too.


:D :D :D :D :D GET IN :D :D :D :D :D


Great call Keith!! :o :lol: But could it be a banana skin? Or a great opportunity to Round 3?! :shock: COYMS!!!

Best tie available! TV money and a good chance to progress. However they played very well at York and will provide a real test.

Definitely should be on TV.
Definitely a potential banana skin, but we really should be able to win it.
Definitely a great opportunity to reach Round 3. Not taking anything for granted but come on...

Hopefully we treat Buxton with respect and have a great trip away. It isn't a million years ago since we were like Buxton hoping for a big tie and a big crowd.

Not sure we will be able to take loads as tickets will be limited, also preference i believe for those at the Newport game.
Friday, Saturday, Sunday or Monday?

Is there any chance that the game may be switched?

Westley pulled that stunt when he owned Farnborough and they drew Arsenal. Chatting with one of their fans and he reckons between 500-1000 away tickets. They currently have no means of segregation so no doubt the Police will have the final say

Their highest home attendance this season was 1,017 in the FA Cup 4th Qualifying Round.
Highest home League attendance was 502.

The minimum they have to give us is 400. I suppose it depends on how many home fans they reckon they'll get and if they think they can make it an intimidating atmosphere by restricting our fans, or, if they want to maximise income? If they give us 1,500 tickets, it will be a sell out. Or, they'll sell about 2,500 home tickets and 400 away?

Yeah 3G. Don’t know if that’s an advantage for them but at least it won’t be some ploughed bog of a leveller.

I'd be more concerned about the altitude sickness! Buxton play at the highest ground in England!

I think we will get 600-700 tickets. Changing ends at half time will be like the good ol' days

Knew I might have it somewhere amongst the large pile....our last home match in the Unibond Premier Lge.

v Buxton F.C. Sat 29th April 1995 A 1-1 draw to help secure promotion to the Conference.

Team: (from) McIllargey, Burns, Lavelle, Dullaghan (C), Grimshaw, Knowles, Comstive, Withers, McLuskie
Cain, Harvey, Coleman.

There are about 10 autographs on the back of the programme, but difficult to decipher !

A pleasant summer Tuesday night trip to Colwyn Bay for the last match to celebrate.
Happy days !

i can see this NOT being live on the TV, especially with it being the BBC, we will not appeal to a major audience.

It's the main draw headline of the draw on the BBC Sport website. I'll be stunned if it's not televised
