Chesterfield fans don't seem too worried about us.  



He might be right about Lester and the draw but it has no bearing on this game

Indeed. I think we’d have a good chance of being on TV if it is Billericay as there’s evidently a bit of a story about them and it probably looks, on paper, like a game with a reasonable chance of an upset given their league form.


I wonder if.we might just miss out. Will be 4.live games I think and maybe the following just pipping us:

Guiseley vs Fleetwood
Wrexham vs Newport
Solihull vs Blackpool
Rochdale vs Portsmouth or Walsall vs Sunderland

Not much else of any appeal so guess we must have a chance. Chesterfield vs GTFC wouldn't be the easiest sell for them though!

I fully expect the BBC will nab the game for a sunday lunchtime regardless of whoever we have to visit. Theyll take the usual 8 matches for their final score programme BUT but theres more than a chance it could be on if BT and BBC take 4 games live but only if we go to Essex

Hope it's Billericay-never been to Scotland

No attempt at ethical or social seduction can eradicate from my heart a deep burning hatred of the Tory party. So far as I'm concerned they're lower than vermin. Aneurin Bevan.

Wrexham vs Newport might be taken on by BBC Wales seperately as they have done with Cardiff (and Swansea?) cup games in recent seasons.

I'm not worried about Chesterfield, they are dog and duck tin pot and will be easy meat. It'll be the biggest game of their lives when we play them, they may even make a commemorative plate or something like that.


Supporting the Mighty Mariners for over 30 years, home town club is were the heart and soul is and it's great to be a part of it.

Gutted not to be down there. Too lackadaisical about getting a ticket, ‘but it’s alright it’s on the telly’
Doh! It’s not on the Beeb and I’ve never paid for tv in my life.

Sounds like they’ve been lucky with decisions and Oldham wastefulness.


Doubly gutted cos there were 700 spare tickets after all.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

Not as gutted as H&R...conceded two late goals and didn't even get a money-spinning replay.

They are lucky they are playing a league side, the plucky non league side might be up for the fight though.


Gtfc all the way
