Trophy replay at Merthyr

[A Rebel and a Saint]

We may be able to run some away travel on Tuesday, depending on demand and coach/minibus availability. No details conformed but please let Mike or Alan know if you're interested.

[HorshamRebel]

Coach might be the best option for me on Tuesday.

I've contacted Mike

[HorshamRebel]

For anyone travelling on Tuesday.

 

Google Maps says the journey is around 2 hours 40 minutes in good traffic.

 

Talking to some of the supporters an officials yesterday, they said that with the delays at the Severn Bridge and on the M4 around Cardiff, it is more like a 3 1/2 hour journey to get there

Is there any details of timings and cost please.

Edited November 17, 2014 by RTyler01

[Rebel Kay]

Entry is £9 adults, £7 concessions and U16s free.

 

There is no coach due to lack of demand.

 

Suggest lift sharing wherever possible.  

[RTyler01]

Kay,

 

Thank you for the update.

[A Rebel and a Saint]

There may be some seats available in cars driving to Merthyr. Contact Mike if you're looking for a lift.

[Neil Baker]

As you might expect we have a few issues with regards to the game, Guy Hollis and Tom Moran are both unavailable, Guy works up in the City and is on a course in Shoreditch which will not finish until 5pm, and despite looking at various train options, he will not get there.

Also Tom started a new job last week and is on a training residential in Southampton, and unable to get out.

Knighty is out due to dead leg sustained on Saturday, and Hatchett is also still struggling from the dead leg.

 

We welcome back Rummy in to the squad having returned from the US yesterday, we actually had him signed on 4 weeks ago with his international clearance so is therefore available, the rules being only players signed prior to midday Friday just gone are eligible.

 

Squad from:

 

Jake Somerville, Sean Fraser, Ryan Parsons, Reece Yorke, Billy Jeffreys, Jake Parsons, James Dobson, Jamie McClurg, Adrian Sear, Ben Edwards, Leigh Rumbold, Oscar Betts, Johnnie Dyer, Eddie Smith and Scott Harris.

Good luck to the Rebels tonight.

 

Merthyr are most peoples favourites to win and their 4G pitch gives them a massive advantage.

 

Perhaps we can quieten a few of the Merthyr supporters who are already counting the money.

 

COYR!!!

First game I'm going to have missed in quite some time, listening to Rebels Radio for the first time. Good luck to the management and team, and safe journey to all those that are travelling.

Strange to be the underdog in view of the difference in league status............

 

We can win this and get another good home game............rebels radio over ITV football this evening !

All the best to the management and team for tonights tough replay

 

So we are got to be fearful of there main striker i have read and i must say he was terrific

but the way the game paned out on saturday they did not see ours in action so hoping

they will get a shock tonight from our front two or three.

 

COYR

[Rebel Sue]

Will get a shock from all our team I hope.

 

Have to say the same as Dan cant remember not going to a game but Merthyr on a Tuesday night and work the next day is a bit too much for us oldies!

 

Best of luck to the team.

 

And yes Warren I know, but I'm still not a part timer as much as you !

[Big J R]

Hope all goes well for you, (being slightly local).

 

At least an artificail pitch means the match should get under-way.  We've already lost some Tuesday evening matchs in the  CoCo  due to the rain.

I Assume Scott Harris and Oscar Betts couldn't make it.

Not ideal with only 2 actual subs and I presume Ed is carrying a knock otherwise he'd be starting? Plus Edwards isn't a regular and has just come back from injury, so let's hope we don't sustain any injuries tonight! Think we're going to right up against it tonight as we scrapped a draw at home and now we're playing away on an alien pitch with a small squad.

[Reading Rebel]

Must say Rebels Radio is excellent tonight.
