Braintree away in first round

Can we afford to get there? Will the gate money cover the expenses? Oh dear. Another nail in the coffin.

Braintree averaging about 650 home gate this season. Not exactly rich pickings there. How much does the winner get?

£5,000

Dare I say win or bust?

We need to win that game just to bring some revenue in over the next month.

No pressure then...

In other words if a draw, we play extra time and if needed penalties

or a replay if the extra time is not mutually agreed in advance etc.....

But only if both teams agree to it. Otherwise it's a replay followed by extra-time and penalties if needed.

great minds Philgull....

So when does Golden goal kick in?

Thinking about it, I doubt the club would agree to it being settled on the day if a draw after 90 minutes. The club would want a home match

Drawn away in the first round. Did anybody seriously expect anything different?
And we'll lose the match. Does anybody seriously expect anything different?
