Sounds like tickets for this one are selling well! I think we need to make some noise and create a big atmosphere for this game to get behind the lads and hopefully push them onto a good result! Me and a few others are going to be up the top of the main stand by the flags having a sing song and a laugh so feel free to come up and join in. Lets make the Woodspring feel like the San Siro on sunday!
SEAGULLS!!!!!!

A bit of noise wouldnt go a miss at the Woodspring! Ill join you up there. We need more songs though!. Mickey Bells White and Black Army! Need to show the fans who havent been Weston games before that there can be an atmosphere and then we may be able to keep a few people. Also as you say Flash itll spur the lads on to hopefully a great result!

Not sure why i said Sunday, my mistake! Glad to here SEAGULLS, and yeah we do need more songs, me and few others were thinking that over the last week and i think we have come up with a few. Also got a load of inflatable seagulls to throw around the stand.

As of last night there was 2300 tickets sold! Looks like we may well be in danger of an actual atmosphere down there! With Football Focus being filmed from the ground too, and even CBBC coming down to film their kids spin off of Match of the Day it looks like it will be a great afternoon.
I certainly agree we need to get more noise from the stands and get behind the lads, it's got to help hasn't it?

ok have just heard the following from someone who's Just been over the ground chatting, rumours of 2200 tickets sold are pushing it a bit. Doncaster have sold 820 ish and we have sold nearly 1000. Apparently its Looking good over there tho’, new advertising boardings, BBC camera gantrys, one in our main stand and two down the side. Doncaster are getting the main bar and function area, we are getting a bar put up in the 5-a-side football hall. The segregation is roughly around the half way line and we will enter behind the main stand and through the turnstiles in that far corner. Apparently BBC have paid a few grand to screen football focus from the ground and we have made £40,000 already from the cup run so far, hoping to make a fair bit on the day from the bars, and charging £1 parking too. hopefully Bliss will give us some of the cash to get a couple of defenders and a striker.

Hi guys. We started a facebook page to try and circulate song ideas etc if anyone is interested? www.facebook.com/westonsuperseagulls Would be great to get some atmosphere at the woodspring, it's been dire for too long.

Pickins i agree totally with you it does need to change and hopefully from saturday we can get it rocking! As far as tickets go i was told we sold over 2000 already but i doubt that personally. i think the game will sell out but only on game day when people turn up for the day! Should be a great day no matter of the result with football focus, the fa cup trophy etc all there for the game! All rounded off with Sammy the Seagull being in attendance, hopefully!
Lets hope we can try and get some of the new fans to stay and bump up our league attendances.

They have also had a memo from our club telling them that the police have banned their coaches from parking in the town centre!!!! is this just a ploy to sell more burgers??? Whatever reason welcome to Weston ..eee bah gum lad.

Hornets have been in touch with them saying they can go there apparently. If they're going to spend money in a bar get them in our bar, the club will benefit then.

I feel deflated this evening. Today could and should have gone so well for the club....
Rumours around that the rescheduled game may be the 18th or 25th.
One silver lining to consider is that as the BBC wanted to televise this fixture initially they may cover the new date.
