FA Vase 5th Rd draw

[Winslow Boy]

Winslow Boy - No, you're right but I remember when they couldn't get over to Norwich United for a pre-season game so Guernsey would be a test of the Club's resolve wouldn't it

Not quite true is it though, the game was cancelled it was a friendly they clearly decided didn't suit them in the end, not that they couldbt get there. No big deal happens a lot

Yes but I wonder how Ampthill would get on arranging their travel to Guernsey and back, Eric Turner would have his work cut out

 

Why would we have trouble arranging travel? It's well within the clubs capabilities. Why Mr Rhodes have you not you wished us good luck like all the other decent posters on this forum. I have a feeling that you are not enjoying our success so far for some reason.

I think you will find that Guernsey arrange travel and hotel (if required) for clubs visiting them

Yep.

 

Wembley Wembley they are the famous Ampthill Town and they are off to Wembley!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Whitley Bay]

Good luck to Ampthill.

 

I've 'pencilled' 4th May in my diary and hope it is an incentive to everyone in the League to get their seasons finished without needing an extension!!

Yes all Guernsey sides arrange and cover the cost of flights and also one nights stay in a hotel. All done through their Travel Agent who can also offer good rates on supporters packages.

So don't visiting Club's have to pay anything then, surely that's too good too be true or do they reimburse Guernsey later, after the game

Not at all but I seem to remember when Chalfont St Peter reached the Semi Final of the FA Vase a few years back when they were in the SSML Premier Division nobody on here seemed that interested

[smellynuts]

Craig and the Ampthill boys. You have done yourselves proud, from us AFC boys I wish you all the best when you reach the final. Pop a complementory ticket in the post for me when you get there please buddy!

[Rhodes]

You have to admit that Ampthill have been fortunate with the draws they've had, most team in the FA Vase are evenly matched so more often than not it's just down to home advantage who goes through

[Jonno]

Looks like the dream is over for all SSMFL clubs for another year. Well done to Ampthill on their run, huge credit to them. Maybe next season we can get our name on the trophy again.

Like in 1975 you mean, you got that in nicely didn't you

As far as I know they just need to get themselves to Gatwick Airport, but then they can claim that on expenses from the FA. So yes, its a free trip, same as in GFC's League campaign.
