Anyone know what the max capacity is now - 2.5k ? Should push for 2k in attendance for this game... There's enough room for another 700-800 to watch reasonably comfortably. It's the pressure on facilities that's the problem. |

I think that there should have been an outside bar yesterday as there was with the FC United game, hopefully a bit more organisation for the Barrow game.

I have not seen Barrow recently but they got promotion from the National League with a team of 'big' players who played the long ball and bullied opposition defences. We are in with a chance and it will be another great day.

Would hope the game is on TV. Mark Pougatch is president of Puritans Radio - give him a bell?
Based on yesterdays game I would think you could easily get 1000/1500 extra. No doubt some H&S bod will make that decision. Extra facilities would be required but I am sure the club will be all over it.

Based on Barrow bringing a similar number to Bath yesterday any increase in the crowd would need to be locals. Does that seem likely to number 500?

What a wonderful afternoon...the weather, which set it all off perfectly...with the sun setting over the ground. It was almost like a spring evening... Forgive me for quoting one of my own messages but here's the mood captured...  [https://twitter.com/EvelynSawyer] |

There's no lack of video material on Barrow for the Banbury management's homework. No match for Banbury on Saturday and Barrow are at Walsall. A short trip for AW. |

As noted elsewhere, Brackley lost their replay at Guiseley last night so Banbury have progressed further in the competition for the first time since 2005 when they beat them at the Stadium in a 2Q replay. That was also the last time Banbury went further than Oxford City, who were still in the Spartan South Midland League (Brackley were in SL Div 1W).
Banbury's 16-match unbeaten run is eclipsed by Buxton of the Northern Premier League. They're unbeaten in 13 league matches and six in the FA Cup, having had two replays to reach the First Round for the first time since 1962 (when they lost to Barrow). Last night they beat Kettering in a replay at home. They had been two down on Saturday but were saved by a last-minute penalty, after which some Kettering fans disgraced themselves and the police had to be called. Old habits die hard.
Stratford reaching 4Q was a first for them. They went one better last night in their replay against Boston. Janaai Gordon put them 2-0 up, Boston levelled it and Stratford got the winner with about 15 minutes left. They have a tough home tie against Shrewsbury. The BBC will love this story. Even if it's not a live match, it will feature in one of their special reports, accompanied by a flood of clichés.
Yate's replay against Dover was delayed by a partial floodlight failure, though observers thought what was working was good enough for play. Reports say that Yate wanted to play but Dover didn't and they packed their bags a few minutes before the lights were fixed. As if they don't have enough problems...
