FA Trophy QF Replay: Macclesfield Town vs Dulwich Hamlet, Tues 7th March

[moose]

The Tilting Ale on virgin trains is Red Willow, too.

 

[DonkeyAssessor]

What's the Macclesfield ground and weather conditions like now?

(Obviously expected to improved over next two days.)

Has Captain Scott's expedition on their Pennine trek been sighted yet ?

 

[AndyF]

Red Willow beers are actually not an uncommon sight in the discerning free houses and craft beer bars of South London, I had a pint of Headless in Beer Rebellion Gipsy Hill only a week or so ago. I'll wander into town and visit the Snowgoose and/or Treacle Tap if the coach arrives early enough.

Good shout. See you on Tuesday mate.

 

[Silkman72]

No snow you'll be relieved to hear , overcast and a little rain , should be no problem Tuesday (crosses fingers)

 

[DonkeyAssessor]

Very possibly mate ( the pint that is ) not the trophy

Que sera

After yesterday's ineptitude very possibly Donkey Assesor

 

[Silkman72]

I can heartily recommend the Red Willow after last nights shenanigans, but brace yourselves for the hangover from hell

I'd rather you had won 3-0 and were on a high to come down from, rather than be even more determined to get a result

My philosophy too. Have a good day, and anything good that happens in 90 / 120 or more minutes of the game, is a bonus.

 

[Silkman72]

Absolutely mate , whatever happens I wish you the very best for the rest of the season , Champion Hill will always be remembered for Summefields Worldie second goal

Bit like Carews then

Were you bad yesterday, they good or bit of both ? A lot of teams run into a brick wall called Ethan Pinnock when playing against FGR. A quality defender, who we really missed when he was out injured for a month last season. Would like to see him get the chance to perform in the football league as well (with whichever club he gets the chance). Discuss further with you on Tuesday over a pint.

If thats a worldie on Carew's part its odd he does similar stuff a lot of the time

Not sure pinnock even plays centre back for FGR.

Sad times.

Looks like he was playing centre midfield on Saturday.

I was mulling if there was any way I could get the train up later but then I looked at the ticket prices and they seem to have gone into full comedy mode. Or perhaps I'd inadvertently typed in Madrid (inc hotel accom). The fucking fuckers.

If you go to London Midland website there is a train to Stoke at 14.46 (£22) and then you can pick up a ticket onwards to Macclesfield for around 7 quid

 

[YTC]

editor - much cheaper to split tickets. Get a single to Stoke, then an anytime single from stoke to macc, can still do that for under £30 if you go earlier.

I won't be able to leave till a fair bit later, sadly, but I'll take a look.

[YTC]

aye yeah, a few of us are on the 13:46. Seems to be the cheapest option!

For England c as well ?

I believe Euston has ticket restrictions between 15.00 and 18.59 where off peak tickets cannot be used.

 

[Bugpowder Dust]

£75 single on the 1620 using the split ticket tool that someone suggested earlier. Same trains as the 1620 quoted above.

That's still steep but I can't leave London any earlier so my only option.

 

[B.I.G]

For England c as well ?

No idea how England C works, do they pick almost a different squad each time?

Looks like I'll be 'watching' this game on the internet then

Be great if folks could take some pics for the Buzz report. Up the Hamlet!

I did hear a rumours that the second half may be live streamed on Facebook so worth watching the club page.
