Cup Fever!
No tickets for sale online (in the away end). Have we sold out our allocation or is it pay on the gate?

Re: Cup Fever!
Yes, it is no longer all-ticket, which suggests demand was not as high as Borehamwood expected...

Re: Cup Fever!
Even the die-hard supporters (includes me) will have visions of a defeat in view of our current form. That will probably be reducing ticket sales, plus the change in date from a 3pm Saturday kick-off. I am very nervous about our current form and what will be the result.

Re: Cup Fever!
No need for that, still League 1 (for now).

I'm not even considering anything other than a win.

When we were going for NL and L2 promotion sacrificing the FA Cup to keep the squad fresh was a necessary evil, whereas this season the club desperately needs the prize money from each round, plus gate receipts if we manage to get something juicy 3rd round onward
I got a feeling for progress to round 2 but with an almighty scare along the way. Boreham Wood 1 - 2 Orient

Re: Cup Fever!
I'm thinking along the same lines . If Borehamwood score we're in trouble . Kelman isn't as good as Richie thinks he is and Agyei is struggling . We should win but I'm not confident .

Re: Cup Fever!
Orient site says it's being shown internationally, perhaps something to do with that?

Re: Cup Fever!
The FA moves some games to Sunday so that they can sell them to overseas pay-per-view. The match is not available in the UK unless you have a VPN and are willing to subscribe to ESPN or BeIn. Unless anyone knows a free to air overseas channel where it's being shown.

Re: Cup Fever!
Obviously the Directors will like a decent Cup run for a big team but we will struggle on current form. I am not looking forward to it really. I would not like to have a bet on result.

Re: Cup Fever!
We can't score goals against League 1 opposition (with the notable exception of Stockport) so it will be interesting to see if it is any different against a team 3 divisions below us.
Re: Cup Fever!
Watched the Northampton game last night. Cobblers turned in a performance worthy of us and their goal was an og. Not feeling good about today - I want to be so wrong!
