Shame it's not an F A Cup tie instead of trophy looks like they have dropped ticket prices quite a bit to increase the gate. That said i doubt it will be anything like their league crowds I would be surprised if it got 1500.

Yeah, recent FA Cup tie got 1400 I think. I believe their Trophy tie was away on Saturday and only mustered 400 or so.

The Robbie Savage effect has certainly brought crowds in.
I know it was Macclesfield Town in the league but they were just about the poorest supported team every season, getting crowds that were not much bigger than 1,000.

Depending on how many go, would it be worth us sitting in the stand (I think block J) having the roof will enable us to generate some noise. Having the roof at Stourbr*dge made a massive difference compared to Bromsgrove.
