Cambridge v Exeter.

Personally, I'm glad. Now that Burton have been knocked out, we can say one of two proper football clubs will be returning to the league.

Didn't Exeter take 30,000 last season? I think Morecambe had a pitiful 12,000 or something. Amazing to think that the gate for a non-league final is going to be in the 55,000 - 60,000 range which is about the same as our own appearance for a place in the Premiership all those years ago. :ohmy:

I think there was quite a few people that went along just to visit the round as it was one of the first matches there.

But even so thats a hell of a lot for non league

Live in Cambridge and went to both legs of the Play-offs with mates who are Cambridge fans. Cambridge took 2,000 to Burton and then sold out the Abbey for the home leg. Burton had home tickets left and brought 450 fans to the away leg. Cambridge are the bigger club and should be back in the league.

They will take 20,000 to Wembley at least I reckon.

Hope Exeter win.
I love those West Country trips (although I don't envisage us visiting the Grecians any time soon).

I,m goin to wemberlee to watch this one as my girlfriends dad is an exeter fan. He reckons they will take 30,000 fans.

Its gonna be a close one but exeter are on form and have the experience of bein there last yr.
Probably nick it by the odd goal.

On a personal note I am actually lookin forward to this one although its a poor substitute for the albion being there.
