We drew on purpose.... All makes sense now  Personally I think it's disgraceful that people are upset with GC. The bloke is a genius. Here's why: 1. Attendances are split 50/50 in the FA Cup, GC knows this 2. GC knew our attendance would be lower than usual. 3,649 attendance 3. Bromley can hold 5,000 - that will be a sell out. 4. In total, that's attendance money of 8,649 5. He also knew that if they were interested in the home leg, they'll love the away leg 6. Win at Bromley, pick up the prize money, attendance money is higher & TV money is higher He's probably made us about 75k more than we would have had if we just won tbh. Martin Starnes eat your heart out Will Bromley really sell out for a game which is also live on TV? Going on Barnet's attendance last season I'd have thought they'd be lucky to beat Sunday's gate? |

Barnet have a history of being a professional league side and playing teams of our calibre. Bromley have for most of their history played at step 6,7 and 8 of the football pyramid, naturally not reaching this stage of the competition all that often so for them it will be a much bigger occasion. |

I know they show sky matches , but do the clubhouse bars show BT sports coverage? Club are sorting it out. Should be on 👍 23s have a central league cup game against Cheltenham that night 7pm kick off at the Mem. |

Of the entirety of my post, that is the point you question?  |

This programme may contain scenes some viewers may find upsetting, ie their second and third goals.

On the plastic pitch not that confident. Need to improve the performance and try and arrange a friendly for JCH to get some game time.

Bromley's average attendance is 2022 this season. Notts County are the biggest fish in that pond this season, and they got 3122 for that home game

I can't actually remember a time when we didn't sell out an away fa cup tie against a non-league side going all the way back to Kettering in 88.... |

I think there were so few tickets on sale that it put people off planning on going assuming they wouldn't get one. Being a TV game on a Sunday lunchtime contributed to that too. |

Wouldn't it be good if we have a better attendance in the GFA cup than some clubs did in the leasing trophy?
With the Bromley game being shown on tv at the Mem, I would guess the first half att for the GFA game (ko 7pm), could be 150+.(think there is usually about 80 for this type of game anyway).

BT SPORT TUES 19/11 - 19:45 K.O. Humiliation or Jubilation ? Hmmm, got (not totally) excited then thinking it would be on the BBC red button or something.... But that's no use to me unfortunately.... It’s very easy to find a live stream when anything is televised on BT sport. Do yourself a big favour and download Tor browser as it uses VPN as standard. |

There will be 50/50s available on Tuesday.
Due to logistics, I will probably do two draws - one at half time on the Mem terraces for the GFA game and then another at half time of the Bromley game in the clubhouse bars.
Two chances to win then! Very handy in the lead up to Christmas.
