And on a plus, no issues for away games this year, given crowds in this league. Im sure Welwyn would be glad of a crowd of 300....or even more than 200.

And no I still havent forgiven them :-D

Gutted I can’t be there today due to other commitments but even if I was available I think I’d still probably give it a miss as a long way to travel for a potentially wasted journey if unable to get in.

Hoping to make Sutton Coldfield next week. Interesting to see what happens there as they have got Coleshill today and reading on their website I think it’s just a case of turn up on the day first come first serve there. But then it might be different for us next week being a bigger club and taking more fans. As has been mentioned we could easily take 300 fans there ourselves.

Noticed for AFC Wulfrunians vs Stourbr*dge game today that the cricket club team have been allocated 100 spaces as away fans and you have to book in with the club before you go to prevent being turned away on the day which seems a sensible way of doing thing IMO.

With fans currently only allowed to attend matches at Step 3 and below, I would expect demand to attend these matches to increase significantly. Fans from higher division clubs will be looking for a game to go to...

If attendance is capped at 400, perhaps most games in our league would be a sell out??

Thats a fair point. However Im not sure it will bring people in larger numbers to our league. Guess it a case of wait and see.

You could fit every seat in every away ground in our league into the main stand 😂

Winning 2-0 from them what don't know.

@old git - did everyone get in? Were they strict on the 150?
