Ticket News FA Trophy 3rd Round Draw - Brentwood Town (A) - Sat 7th Dec TICKETS SOLD OUT

[Microbe]

Brentwood (A)

 

[Chris Powell's mate]

Sounds Ok-ish, and a money spinner for them!

 

[kaymac]

Doubt it, more akin to a loss-maker, they have a very small ‘stadium’….

 

[Shrimper]

Capacity only 1,000? Surely they'll look to increase that

 

[tottenham541]

Great draw for Brentwood, wonder what the capacity will be for this

 

[Maldon Shrimper]

Switch the tie to RH?

Switch the tie to RH?

I hope not, it's a 5 minute walk for me.

 

[Smiffy]

Season card holders only I'd guess. Given we'll get 500 tickets or so.

 

[shrimperjon]

Ben used to play there. Its awful. Pitch used to be really bad but now have 4 G. One small terrace behind the goal and a small stand with maybe 100 seats. then another small stand, bar and changing rooms down the side of the pitch. Rest of the ground has a small path going round it. Facilities are next to nothing.

 

[Shrimper]

Switch the tie to RH?

Will it be like FA Cup and if switched played elsewhere? Aveley's ground will be free

 

[Uncle_Rons_Teapot]

Mahers last game the way things are going if we lose

Brentwood have played at Istmian Premier level in the past where the minimum capacity is 2,000 so their ground should be able to hold that many. I should imagine they'll set the official capacity for the game a couple of hundred lower as they'll need to use up space for segregation.

Someone i know supports them after refusing to go to watch West Ham at the london stadium when they left Upton Park. Average gate is around 150-200, maybe 400 for a bigger game with some away fans. they took a coach to Hereford. their fan base is made up of old West Ham. Could be interesting as they were looking for some when they played at RH a few years ago in the Essex Cup. Smashed up one of the toilets in the East Stand from memory

 

[Stuart W]

Assuming it is played on the Saturday, it will be 56 years TO THE DAY since we last met them in a major competition. Didn’t some guy called Best get one or two goals that day?

 

[WickfordShrimper]

I believe our biggest win in our 120 odd year history was away at Brentwood 10-1 win in the FA Cup

I bet Brentwood are rubbing their hands a guaranteed sellout crowd and poorly out of form Southend United side turning up 60 years later. lol

 

[Sherif H]

I genuinely feel we might lose this on current form. They beat Hereford in the last round, and you just know this has the potential to be a complete disaster.

We have nothing to play for this season, so we might as well try and take the Trophy seriously.

 

[B.B.The Legend Lives On.]

Brentwood Town away on December 7th 2024. That date sounds very familiar to me, anyone old enough on here to remember the last time we played them on that date.?????

Hopefully we'll get around 1,500-1,750. Will be tight to get tickets still.

It's more, if you really try to get people in

No, but I can guess
