I previously said I thought Grimsby would win but now I'm hoping Solihull win's it instead . Who are you hoping for to join us in League Two ?

I dont want to bock them , tell you after .

Not exactly an appealing weekend away at either. Can we request a Tuesday night away fixture and streaming night in.

Suilhull please

I did not realise this game is not at Wembley. It’s at the London Stadium

COME ON GRIMSBY.

A lot of fans on FB complaining about the high ticket prices
£45 adults and £20 for kids
Vanarama have donated £20k to each club to help with kids tickets and even Wrexham fans have donated.
Who decides these ridiculous prices ??

Your most local club Bergy

I'd prefer Solihul, because they ended up with about 12 points more than Grimsby, but have a feeling Grimsby will win

The season we won the NL, Solihul were runners up, but failed in the play offs to Salford. They kinda deserve it now

UP THE MARINERS!

I was down near the London Stadium this morning . There was already a police presence there before 7am

I agree but you don't always get what you deserve in football

For historical reasons, Grimsby for me.

Those wanting Solihull clearly forget what a stupid shithouse club they were from our conference days. f*** them.

Solihull, smaller club, lower budget, easier to get to

It's obviously Grimsby, and anyone who disagrees is wrong.

A proper member of the 92, excellent fish and chips, had Russell Slade as a manager vs... an outfit that was deeply tinpot even at NL level.

I reckon Solihull will win 1 - 0

If they had made tickets more sensible price they might have attracted a bigger crowd. If it were say £25 I would have gone to avoid having to go to a jubilee street party!

Grimsby for me because with them back in the football league it will be possible to deploy the trick quiz question again.

Agreed, we thought about going but at £45 each, plus travel and binoculars to actually see the match we thought it too expensive.

Every year the National League Play Off Final is a stupid price.

A big ground, little other football on, should be perfect for families & groundhoppers to have a day out. It is far to expensive.

They also have scrapped the neutral section that used to exist at finals

Good goal by Hudlin to put Solihull 1-0 up at HT. Apparently he’s the tallest player in the country all top 5 leagues Obviously Solihull’s target man and used to good effect . Job half done so hopefully Solihull can go on to win it now

I believe that the £20 kid tickets were only in the lower tier and sold out, forcing further kids to pay adult prices in the top tier, hence the furore.

Yep, and loads of empty seats around the stadium, shame really.

Callum Reilly coming on. My gosh

And then immediately conceded to a goal by Jordan Maquire-Drew
