Won’t be going to this one - couldn’t stand the place last time. Expect it’ll be a very tough encounter if last year’s matches are anything to go by.

By ‘bar open’ I presume they mean a man in a cupboard at the side of the stand selling 330ml bottles of Budweiser for £5, or maybe they’ve sorted that farcical arrangement out.
They say we've lost our money we're not famous anymore.....

Hayes & Yeading Fan coming in Peace......mainly!
I’m sorry you can not stand our place, I do not know why, it maybe hasn’t the “old fashioned” feel of our old ground but it has one of the best playing Surface’s you will see this Season, a fantastic Stand and a BAR underneath the Main Stand, and it’s ours!
Our range of Real Ale’s come in at a very respectable £3-50 a Pint, lovely!
Hope those of you that are making the journey have a safe trip and an enjoyable experience with us, as we did with you last Season.
I still remember the wonderful Stadium that you used to own, couldn’t believe it first time visiting, shame it went the way it did, we also came very close to folding recently, not a nice feeling.
So, safe journey and looking forward to seeing you in our Bar, cheers! :drinks:

Just to let you all know, there really isn’t any decent Pubs within walking distance of the ground unfortunatly but our Bar will be open from 13-00 if not earlier! :drinks:

That in itself is an improvement on last seasons "dry" visit. All we have to do now is reverse the scoreline. They have scored 23 goals in five games so will be full of optimism and probably expect to score a few more and may even be favourites to win this game. It will certainly be the hardest match we have ever played against a lower division team. I only hope that Sam and Jack are available and that we include Ben Diamond and John Dean.

Just been listening to Talksport2. An interesting confrontation in Saturday's FA Cup. Met. Police v Cray Wanderers. You may have to be of a certain age to see the irony in this!
