    Cant see it, we are not good enough to consider it a possible giant killing

    ITV have already announced Bishop's Stortford v Northampton Town is one giving both clubs £67,500 & a further 18k to the winners

    Grimsby v Scunthorpe would be a good bet for TV - although the hosts are non-league, it is a Humberside derby.

    I've not seen the price for this game advertised anywhere yet but having looked at an online ticket purchase, they are coming up as £15 for my normal location in the Medway Stand for an adult.

    No nothing on OS although our prices have to be the same as the opposition, fa cup rules i seem to remember. My usual seat was in the online basket this morning so just purhcased that way...but bad advertising none the less.

    not good pricing considering ( without being disrespectful ) the quality of the opposition, will be surprised if the crowd is over 3000

    I think its pretty reasonable actually, for adults its a £5 adult reduction in most sections and £9 off in other areas of the ground. It wont effect the away numbers, its what they paid on Tuesday night for the replay. Under 18's can go for a fiver & you wont get better than that anywhere in the 1st round of the FA CUP

    harryheadbutt - I agree it appears to be the general price for the 1st round, i noted yesterday the Posh were charging exactly the same for their home tie against Exeter and as you rightly pointed out, the previous Barrow v Brackley game was also the same price. Although I personally would have preferred a tenner, that is a general football discussion to be had, rather than just a GFC one.

    admittedly any reduction on usual matchday prices are to be welcomed but i dont see those prices attracting the fairweather fans to come and maybe to be convinced to come again

    OTiC - Charlie Lee is available for the FA Cup on Saturday. I picked up a tweet from the official twitter page this morning confirming. Although I am currently unaware of the situation with Linganzi.

    We just want to clarify that @charlielee06 IS available for the #FACup game against @BrackleyTownFC on Saturday. He is not suspended. #Gills

    Brackley are giving their fans a special package including coach travel to the game, a match ticket, and a commemorative 1st team shirt with the date and Gillls v Brackley Town printed on it. Prices are: £55 adults, £50 concessions, and £35 for under 18's

    Nice touch for their big day
