From the club's Facebook page:

Home fans at tomorrow's game against Grimsby will all be accomodated at the south end of the West Stand and should enter via turnstiles W1-3 with unreserved seatingAway fans should enter via turnstiles W6-8 at the north section of the West Stand, sitting in block W7.

This appears to be an indication of very low ticket sales

We?re already through and they can qualify., it?s as near to. ?Nothing? game as you will find.

Assume it?ll be the lowest attended first team competitive game since the ground move (Covid aside).

The club may decide an away tie is more cost effective, personally I want us to progress as it gives game time opportunities for fringe players and those returning from injury and I quite enjoy a trip to Wembley

Probably better we play away anyway at the moment as we can't seem to buy a win at home
hopefully soon we get back to winning ways at home though.

Having absolutely no idea of who is/isn't able to play tomorrow, I'm going experimental (or mad)!

Boot
Gordon
Grimes
Williams
Tanton
Colclough
Dobra
Naylor
Mandeville
Madden
Grigg


For the avoidance of doubt, Dobs & Tom are my CM pairing!

I think it will be the 6th lowest on Whittington Moor and might not be in the top ten lowest home crowds since 1921...

Can't risk Boot if Thompson's injury is anything other than slight.
Get it on, bang the gong , get it on

Considering the problems we have with our two centre backs injured, I don?t want tanton or Gordon anywhere near this.

Williams
Grimes

that looks a more likely line up i'd say, are we allowed players who aren't in the league regsitered squad?
