If there was a good time to play Orient its now. Reckon there is a chance of it making telly too.

Surely couldn't have done any better gate wise?

£10 Adults £1 for kids in the whole ground for this or expect a poor crowd.

Bit annoying but winnable. I like it when the cup throws up a tie with some random team you've barely heard of rather than essentially a league game.

You think so? I think there will be lots of interest. Why would you discount what has the potential to be your best attended game?

What TV? Being a featured game on the BBC is
Something like £1000 and will hinder attendance and bar takings.

And it's internet coverage, not tv. You don't need many fans to decide to stay at home to watch and you've lost the £1,000 fee for coverage.

There wont be that much interest if its priced the same as a league match. Its a good chance to attract new fans. Hoe many Orient will bother if its £21 for adults and £12 for kids the way they are playing.

We got a 3000 odd gate for this when we last played them in the league. Hopefully they reduce prices as I think they have done previously for the FA cup and we can meet or exceed that. £10-15 for an adult is more than enough. A very winnable tie too given their recent form, really looking forward to this game.

Would certainly be surprised if the gate didn't surpass the 2000 mark.

West Ham are in Burnley that weekend. I don't know if we are allowed to do it in the FA Cup but we could do an offer for season ticket holders to pull in a few more punters

Heard through the grapevine the O`s are getting at least 1,300 tickets so they will have the A13 stand and part of the sieve for the game price wise don`t know but I agree should be £10 adult £1 kids with paying adult,we just have to wait until the club decides what to charge should know soon.

WHY should it be £10? £10 are for games where you struggle to attract attendances, not where everyone has an interest.
This should be full price. We have to split the gate money; let's make the most of it.
