You need to win one game to make it to the first round proper, where 32 non-league sides join the 48 that make up L1 and L2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right Pete, but I was answering the question about how many Oldham would have to play in. I think the competition kicks off in August, these days.

And if you get drawn away at a tiny club you are liable to be on the TV as the pantomime villain. Going back to Hordern - the game was moved to Hartlepool and when we got there we found various Monkey Hangers, Smoggies and even a few Mags waiting for us. It was one part lively and one part terrifying for the duration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We got turned over big time at The Elephant and Castle, Ancoats in early 2002 Possibly because they got "done" on their own patch the year before? We played them first game of season 2001/02 - 3-3 draw from memory. It was not long after the Oldham riots and quite a few tasty "English nationalist" lads were over in N wales. I recall a couple of pubs in Wrexham festooned with Oldham and England flags and someone told me Wrexham's mob were run ragged that day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’re doing it to allow as many of their own fans in as possible to watch their team, the ground will still be full…..giving them 1200 is just plain silly don’t you think?…when our away end holds nearly 4000!!

What's to say we couldn't sell more over the festive period if we are anywhere near the top? Wrexham were allowing 2000 away fans in but have reduced that to 1200 to give themselves more of an advantage in home games, why shouldn't we do the same if we are top at Christmas?

oafc1955 Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 Listen…we’ve space for almost 10k without the Chaddy even if we were top of the league at xmas it is more than enough for homers. 8 or 9000 tics and 3000 taffy’s would be a fantastic atmosphere, bring it on I say….if we’re good enough we’ll win the game….simples.
