Hurst and Scott moved our bench from left of the tunnel to the right and we failed in the playoffs the past two seasons. This year Hurst has moved us back to the left. Just saying that's all.

Here,here but we have got to get there first. We have two mega games coming up before we can even think of the final

If we do get there it's down to how the players play on the day irrespective of which end we face.

I always like us to kick the second half towards our fans but it's not a game changer.

What are game changes are the Ref and linesman if they do a good job let the game flow and get things right you hope. No manager can account for bad refs they can be real show stoppers.

Playing away at small crowds is our speciality the players don't have the pressure on them as we know..

That's one of the main reasons we do so well away , its the big crowds in big games we seem to have a problem.

If we get to Wembley I hope its against barnet or fgr for example and not Bristol rovers as they will bring 25k easy, I hope they win the league.

I think 20k plus of us and 5-10 k  fgr would suit us.

If any of our players cannot take the pressure of playing away in front of home crowds of more than 1,000 then they shouldn't be playing professional football.

I am just hoping the players are not reading this,

I can see them now walking onto the hallowed turf,

Turning round to each other and saying either we are doomed,

Or we have got this in the bag,

Depending on where the town fans are seated.

Quoted from Meza
So Aston Villa lead 2-1 and there fans are on the left of the tunnel.  Arsenal won and there fans on the left of the tunnel.  When MK Dons and Wrexham beat us they were on the left. If we get to Wembley i hope to god we are on the left  


Depends which way you're looking. If you were coming out of the tunnel they would have been on the right.


We've got Jason Pearcey, number one, we've got the best team in the land...

I thought ends were decided on geographical matters, as are the designated pubs for supporters, depends on which way the teams general support approaches Wembley, likelehood is we will be the only team in the mix approaching from the north looking at the teams involved so probably will end up with the same end and same pubs if succesful in reaching Wembley.
