peelyfeet Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 I watched Ambleside Utd vs Coniston AFC tonight. Big local Derby. Fat coniston goalie kicking off at the end, telling the Ambleside CF he's gonna knock him out after the match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surprising how many do it each year. Started in the extra qualifying round in August and followed it all the way through. Think from the first round it was Blyth v Gateshead (which needed a contact of mine to get him a ticket!), Gateshead v Tamworth then Everton v Tamworth. Ended up with Everton winning each time after that so got to the stage where he had earned enough ticket points from the previous rounds to qualify for a ticket for Liverpool v Everton in the semi at Wembley. Liverpool won the semi and I think played Chelsea in the final so absolutely zero chance of a ticket. He travelled down anyway, if nothing else to get a match programme to complete the collection and then watched the game in Wembley Spoons. So near, yet so far.

It wouldn't have been the norm previously but then again games haven't been postponed because of a pandemic before Precedent from the previous round was that there wasn't enough time to rearrange to get the tie played before the next round is due so you drop out and tough luck. Obviously it isn't likely to be an issue once the pro clubs enter as they're in their separate bubbles etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Carlos Posted September 22, 2020 Moderators Share Posted September 22, 2020 The Conf North and South being classed as elite sport has killed me off, what a joke. You can't watch Curzon Ashton but all the NPL clubs in the league below can have 600 in. Work that one out. Gonna be some serious issues.
