Not sure you need a coach just to travel across Bristol? I say fair play. Meet at the ground, leave the 70+ cars there, travel together and have a good day as a group. It's a great tie for them so if their club are offering options then fair doos. They'll probably outsing the blackthorn aswell. Totally agree!

What sort of attendance is expected.
Kinda looking forward to it as should be a very good cup tie, but must admit I am a bit nervous.
If there were replays I think it would be fine, but if it goes straight to pens, I am sure there will be a fair bit of nail biting going on.

I'm not sure a replay at WSM would be any easier than beating them over 90 mins (or would it be 120 mins?) at the Mem?

That be an incredible gate . I know when we played plymouth & Coventry in 2nd round games we had 5500 plus. Both away clubs filled the old tent and east terrace . Mind you I said weston would only bring 1k and they sold around 1500.

(From the WSM AFC twitter feed @1430hours on 2024/10/28.)
"Tickets for our match against Bristol Rovers are on sale from the club bar each day this week, available to purchase between 11am - 5pm."
This is the method third parties will choose to adopt.
Last Time Out
Pre -season friendly at The Woodspring Stadium on 13th July 2016.
Weston Super Mare AFC 1 * 3 Bristol Rovers in front of a crowd of 820.
Richards scored for WSM AFC and Gaffney, Easter (pen) and Lucas scored for us.

They sold their initial allocation of 1300 tickets and were given another 500 I believe, if they sold them that’s 1800. Surely they’ll be enough interest from Gasheads for this local tie to sell 5k tickets ?

Hope your right Yatton and we get 7k.

The tie must be proving more attractive than the club originally anticipated as I see they’ve have made the final block of the east stand & the terrace between west stand & the Thatchers end available.

For me personally, the £213 wouldn`t make up for the worry about why I`d collapsed. All a matter of opinion I guess.

The ticketing for the game has been complete nonsense. 4 members of the same family spread over 3 stands. At least we can meet for a drink before the game.

Anyone who thinks this will be an easy game I think will be mistaken. One to keep an eye out for is Luke Coulson who is scoring for fun and they also have Rueben Reid and I am sure the whole team will raise their game to try and get through to the next round.

What's your prediction then? This is an easy game though isn't it? A league 1 against a 6th tier side is a formality surely? From a footballing perspective, everything would need to go wrong for us and WSM will need a 5 star night to win. If any of the WSM squad were 3rd tier quality, they would be playing in it right? So, let's not start making excuses already lol. Aren't they part time?? This is a walk in the park 99 times out of 100 and it would be a monumentus shock if we don't put them away by 3 clear goals at least.

Of course we will be favourites, play well and win. But football, and the fa cup, doesnt work like that! Huge game for the team and Taylor
