Hope we have enough to win, but if the weather is as per forecast I think I'll be staying put.

It’s warm in the Trust shop Nick, can’t beat a good volunteer. There’s plenty of bovril too!

Where did you get 3 weekends in a row from? Just read the read the article and it says “one weekend only “

Taking this off topic for a moment...

It is one weekend's work with 2 spare in case of poor weather. This has been badly publicised by the Highways Agency and various media outlets from the start.

It will be constant gridlock from Lancaster (Southbound, as people come off early at J34 to "avoid the queue at Galgate") all along the A6 to and through Preston (Northbound as they do the opposite for J32). Unless you REALLY have to travel this weekend I wouldnt bother.

I'm going the long way round via the M65 and A65 rather than crawl through 2+ hours of what should be a 15 min drive.

Back on topic....

Barrow 2-1 FCUM Att. 1180 (123 Away)

Their forum reckon 500 so far travelling up

If we get to the third round Dover away is off.

Spooky

Nice gesture from Barrow to charge the equivalent of FC United's prices. Concessions 60+.

[barrowaberdeen]

Not a prayer 500. 300 max IMHO. Don't want a replay.

Garreth Rhodes is the referee for Saturday. He was in charge of our home games against Halifax and Chorley. Definitely one of the poorer officials in this league, unfortunately.

[KrisT1992]

According to a few fc United fans on twitter they reckon 500 minimum 3 buses filled 2 of of them being double deckers

Read on their FB page they are coming to barrow to "teach us how to sing"

[cottingham bluebird]

They probably will do as we don't sing at home
