v Concord FA Trophy replay


Reading Rebel

Recommended Posts

We had an attendance of 631 for the Chippenham replay. That wasn’t a Champions League night, but are many going to stay at home to watch Spurs or City?

It’s not going to be a cold evening, 10 - 11 C, so no excuses about wanting to stay in the warm & avoid catching the flu.

Saying all that, I would still be surprised if we get anywhere near 600.

Well that mightly frustrating... we had many chances to win this and the turning point proved to be us missing a penalty when 2-1 up and had we scored you’d think we would have gone on to win. Absolutely sickening to concede in injury time and the absolutely loved it didn’t they? Bang goes our trophy run, we really now just can concentrate on the league! We did play some nice football and created a few chances but just couldn’t get past a gritty in your face Concord side. Poor crowd of 295 which was way below a lot of people’s expectations (not that it really matters).

Disappointing defeat.

I think we created enough chances in the second half, just not clinical enough on the night.

Free far post header for their first goal and caught on the break for the deciding goal.

We had the momentum at 2-1 but the missed penalty was the turning point of the game with the penalty given away shortly afterwards.

Crucial to bounce back on Saturday.

COYR!!!!!!!!!!!

Of course the low attendance could just be down to affordability. With more people going to away games sometimes choices have to be made.

Including all the factors I stated plus the fact we have 2 home league games next plus with Christmas around the corner I guess it was inevitable this would have been low. In all honesty I wasn’t sure if I was going until late!

Last night's game would have been an 'easy' one to miss in the eyes of most supporters. Wet Tuesday night; Champions League; short notice; Christmas approaching; choice of listening to Rebels Radio instead; familiar opponents we've already played twice this season; little to no away support (I assume) and also our next two matches are home league games. All these things have an impact on the attendance!

Thanks part timer!
