Think I might go to this one, only 40 mins away. The ground looks like it could be the most tinpot I've ever visited.

The people who complain about this trophy are the same people who no doubt complained about the JPT but are happy to jump on the band wagon and buy tickets for the semi-final and final. They no doubt take the place of people who have been to several games during the season but when it comes to buying tickets for the semi, for example, are unable to travel to GY to queue and so miss out.
It's pathetic, a trophy is a trophy and we are not a club with such an illustriously decorated trophy cabinet that we can be turning up our noses at one.
We have proved ourselves in 97/98 that you can fight on several fronts (remember, we had decent FA and League Cup runs that season too) and York City proved it in the Conference last season. Not to mention, countless top flight teams etc etc (yes, they have humongous squads but that's not the point).
If you don't want to go to the FAT games, fine, but don't bore us with it on here before and after every single round. I'm happy we've progressed - it breeds a winning mentality after 10 years of a losing one, we get our share of the prize fund, it's a potential trip to Wembley and I love it when the Town win 4-0 no matter who it's against!
Well said PM. When we went to Wembley in the Jpt i went to every single match and saw some great games, the semi at Edgeley Park being a classic awayday and a great atmosphere. I have not been to an away day this season due to family health issues, but i an hoping to get to Welling in the NY. I don't see this as g " excrement cup" but another opportunity on the road to recovery. See you at Welling - UTM! |

Its not special. Felt like i was sitting at Cardiff or many other modern stadia. The experience for me was not there, the old Wembley had a certain majesty about it, big open stadium flooded with natural light. The new one a cold, concrete and steel fairly enclosed stadium. Yes facilities were good but as i made my way through the concourse into the arena i just felt......oh...........no tingle, no hairs on the back of the neck standing up......just did nothing for me. |

Yeah tbf I only looked at it on google earth, and it looks like a bit of grass with 2 bus stops, a bike rack and a shed for stands. Doesn't look so bad on your pics. |
