A very interesting piece of news in The Times this morning
Wembley Stadium has been proposed as a test venue for fans for the FA Trophy and FA Vase finals, on September 20 or 27, with up to a maximum 10,000 supporters in the stadium. This is also likely to be the first test event of supporters attending from more than one club.

Blimey, it's really still on the cards then! I was starting to think it was just completely forgotten about. Small issue of semi finals yet though.

Previous decent rumours were of a one off semi, in a pro stadium somewhere between the two. It wasn’t clear whether it would be behind closed doors or not.
They’ll have to get a wriggle on.

Our centre half, Herbie Hyde - The Black Bambi - running from his own half through the Wealdstone defence only to slip the ball to Tim Langford for a simple tap.

Yes, but that was at their old ground, Lower Mead.
