Cant have been at the last few games then as its getting better at home.

They do seem to think there’s 800 coming up on their forum. How many away fans can we accommodate in the away corner? The barrier might have to be moved further down.

There will be no need to move the barrier. Not a chance of 800. I believe the away section holds 650 which will be plenty.

There’s a block of seats to fill as well
Still can’t see them bringing anyway near that number but I’ve also been surprised by how much of a big deal they are making about it, it still seems odd to see us as the big fish

They're all getting abit giddy. On a good run of form and think they can pull off what they did in the FA cup against us a few years back. Hope we put a strong side out and put them in their place.

Good luck to them for getting excited, there’s no disrespect, it’s no difference to us getting a bit giddy about winning this league, I for one never expected us to be in such a strong position. This is what football is about.

I really hope they’re aware of the M6 closure, there won’t be 800 seats available on local trains therefore they’ll all be taking indirect routes in cars - nightmare

This 100%.

Atherton fans were saying the same things when we played down there. It is bizarre.

Think it's also a sign of how our priorities have changed, couple of years ago, we would be giddy ourselves at been four rounds from Wembley and playing a team with a decent away following, however the number of home supporters will be significantly lower than recent league games and the majority of supporters just hoping we avoid injuries and a replay,

I hope we win and avoid injuries and a replay.
3-1
Att, 1532, inc 180 from Newton Heath

Fcum have put stuff on their social media about the motorway closure, whether there fans read the info or not, who knows

Anyway 3-0 win in front of 1953, Hardcastle, Quigley and Harrison

Going by their forum, this is a very big game for them & they are talking up their away following & have 2 double deckers & a 52 seater coming plus lots driving or training it up, Hope the club are on the ball here & prepare for at least 500/600 away fans & have extra staff on standby, Stock up on non perishable items is a must surely??

Then if only 300 turn up you've lost nowt but if loads turn up then you've made decent money for the club.

Anything but a draw. Get that Bovril on.

A lot of their support coming via coach. FCUM run their own away travel and have tweeted about closures so they will 100% be aware.
