There will be very few tickets available for City fans then.

Would be surprised if they get 3,500-4,000 at their ground but if they do that would mean a fairly decent away allocation, 800ish i think

their pitch looks good:

Also website confirms meeting with FA to make sure all is ok, is now on Tuesday morning....

"We have been earmarked by Sky TV as one of their live games and we are having a meeting with the FA tomorrow (NB now likely to be Tuesday morning) to ensure we can host the tie. We definitely want to hold it here and we don''t see any problems."

 

Not seen anything anywhere else to confirm or deny tv coverage though.

Good, it is what the F.A Cup is all about, they should be allowed to play the tie at their home ground.

Paulton boss said in todays EDP that they''re in talks with ITV.

I really hope it is played at Paulton. Exactly what the Cup should be about. Pampered pros like Cureton turning up in his Bentley to change in a portakabin. Yes, it''ll mean that fewer City fans can go, but I think that is a small price to pay. It''s their day, not ours. I really hope that NCFC supports Paulton in their case to keep the tie at their home ground.

Surprised that you have time to post here what with your editing job at the Socialist Worker and all.

I now understand Paulton will agree to a 3000 limit with the F A ans stage it at home, also ITV will show it on the Sat with a noon kick off

I expect confirmation after lunch today
