The Non - League thread

[Sutekh]

Notts County 2 down at halftime against a team that finished

THIRTY FIVE

points behind them

The absolute unjustice of 1 automatic promotion spot

come on the Wood (and to be fair the Wood are a rather good away team).

Surely though, one day the FL will grant 4 up and 4 down with the National League, make it far more interesting and worthwhile and stupidity like this wouldn't happen.

Yup at STEP02 the PO keep to the highest finishing preference system for hosting ties.

The 'showpiece' STEP01 Final as expected between Notts Co & Chesterfield will be @ 'Wemberlee' next Sat 13th. (15:30)
....probable rail-strike that day too?

...reports coming thru of some unpleasant behaviour by Chester fans at the final whistle.
Apologies being posted by the home club about regrettable scenes on twitter but allegedly the home stewards didn't perform their duties of care towards visiting Brackley fans ..... several injured and young fans in tears,

Should be a good night.

[NathStPaul]

Will the Basingstoke supporters to use racial and homophobic slurs against the Bournemouth players and supporters? You know, as is their norm.

Tickets available in the neutral club wembley section, but no way of selecting them as you have to choose whether you are supporting Notts County or Chesterfield.

The ticket page also allows you to select all sides of the ground regardless of team, including blocks, but then tells you there are no seats if you picked the wrong end.

A bit of a shambles.

And yes, only two categories of ticket, but the cheaper ones are only for the small safe standing sections. The rest of the stadium in the same price.

I'll decide if I'm going on Friday, and probably drive to Uxbridge and take the train from there - no strikes for TFL. I kind of fancy it, but don't know if it's fair to inflict my play-off curse on another club - it extends way beyond just Reading.

WHAT.A.NIGHT!!

Brilliant atmosphere, brilliant fans and Basingstoke Town are TREBLE winners!!

Last minute winner, is there a better way to win a cup!! Takes the sting out of Reading’s season for sure.

With no ground of their own, no backing, what a season they have had!! Absolutely brilliant.

Journey back up M27 and M3 is going to be oh so enjoyable!!

Up the ‘Stoke!!

G’arn The Dragons!

[NathStPaul]

Wonder how many examples of criminal behaviour there were during Basingstoke's cup win? Their supporters are the absolute worst in non-league.

Not all fans are bad and Im sure there are worse then them

...apparently Brackley tweeting Sunday's PO Final sold out ... for home fans?
... seems quite generously they've allocated close to half the stadium to Kiddy?

... not checked that - doesn't sound right - ....read now that KH sold all 700 offered - actually 1/5 of capacity - so is a sell out now.
