Draw for 1Q round at 1pm apparently

Melton away

[Lee K]

6th in United Counties League Premier Division North with 2 wins and 2 draws from 4 games.

A new ground for probably all of us so I am very happy.

If BBC don’t show Dudley Town v Stourbridge as their early live game on the website then there is something wrong with the selection process.

[sheriff]

their ground is shyte

[Perton Pitman]

A tough tie as they haven't lost yet. It is a bit of a trek as well. Dudley v Stourbridge should be on TV as you say

their ground is shyte

Step 5 grounds are seldom palatial

If correct that their ground capacity is 1000 then can we ensure that early contact and agreement is reached with regard to any ticket allocation. It would be presumed that season ticket holders would have a form of priority. The late announcement by RCW which was also not correct will hopefully be avoided.

Their three home games so far this season have been played in front of 205, 255 and 255. So, even with a sizable away following, I think they'll be fine.

You may be wrong but you may be right in the words of Billy Joel
RCW appear to have double the capacity(2000) and similar crowds but they still tried to put a so called all ticket ruling in place 24 hours before ko but somehow didn't put the same message out to their own fans. Just need early clarity of what will happen in this game.

Having been to both Nantwich (midweek admittedly) and Warwick, I don't think you will see more than 250 Hednesford fans at the tie. Still a very impressive number, but Melton is less easy to get to than the aforementioned towns.

I wish Darren all the best in that tie.

I thought it was this guy..

And yes, I'm sure the BBC can find some good romantic reasons for their selection but, as Lee said, Dudley v Stourbridge was still the far better choice.
