6 of us in block 112, row 23. Booked them Friday night. They were sent out yesterday.

I'm not angry or too fussed about numbers. I expected 15,000 and it looks like we'll reached that.

I'm getting pretty excited and can't wait.  

SWWF!

I think if we make 15,000 then it's job done. No bemoaning the fact there could/should be more - 15,000 would be pretty good.

Shoul be a pretty good attendance then. If we can get to 50-odd thousand between the two clubs that would represent a very impressive turnout for the 5th tier of English football.

League One play-off final attendance last season between Leyton Orient (a London club!) and Rotherham was just 43,401. League Two play-off final attendance was a pretty poor 14,000 and Cambridge/Gateshead managed just 19,000 in the Conference.

Unfortunately, it isn't going to influence the authorities to provide another promotion/relegation spot between League Two and the Conference which would be very fair.

Think we were around 12k yesterday. I think we'll get to 15 personally.

No idea as to the overall total but did I read it correctly that there were over 800 Barnet fans who took a gamble on those vouchers... I'd be interested to know who they might side with?

I'd guess the majority wont bother going despite it being a stones throw away.

IF and judging by recent comments I wouldnt guarantee it, what the Official Conference Twitter account says the £10 goes straight to the selling club (in this case Barnet) they then exchange the voucher for a seat at the game. This implies the ticket itself is 'free' but you've made a £10 donation to your club???
