Gresley, FA Trophy - Big Crowd?

From having a look at their forum and seeing some of their fans tweets this week it sounds like they'll be bringing a decent following to The Grove on Saturday. I remember last season when we thumped them 5-0 they had a good following, even if it was midweek.
With only 150 odd turning up on Tuesday I'm guessing a few decided to save their cash/get out of jail cards for Saturday. It would be great to get a 500+ gate on Saturday to cheer on the boys. The heavy defeat on Tuesday wasn't really a true reflection of the game and was our first defeat in ages at The Grove.
Come on Yeltmen and women, make sure we get through to the next round and try and get 500+ down there!

Yeah the more people in the gate the better it is for the club and the players also. Let's get behind the boys and go through to the next round.
We'll also be collecting again for Yeltz TV. We had brilliant support on Tuesday for a small crowd, we haven't counted yet, we'll do a big reveal on Saturday night.
We're also about to get a live podcast ready for an 8 o'clock start. Make sure to get involved on Twitter.

Please note you are not playing in Derbyshire and although dull here today.
However,
Forecast Summary
Saturday
A largely cloudy but mostly dry start. Through the day, some sunny spells are likely to develop, especially in the south, and it will feel mild with light winds.
As we are West Midlands don't expect much Sun but after a couple of Ciders you won't care.

Speaking to one of their chaps on social media they also seem to have a decent flag following, lets show them what we can do
Step forward AVFCYELTZ and the flag bag
