    I think we’ll take around 15,000 - 17,000 which I think is great considering. The kick off time is ridiculous and this will knock 10,000 off the total crowd. Carlisle fans are having to set off at 3:30am. This is all been done for who, Sky bloody TV. There’s then the travel, not enough trains and lack of coaches. The train prices are ridiculous so the other option is the car. Congestion charges for certain vehicles and the expense of fuel/parking. If you have space in your car stick it on social media and share the cost. It will be a fantastic occasion and a very special day but the final would be better at one of the Manchester grounds or Villa Park. 20,000 Stockport and Carlisle fans in a packed stadium would be an incredible atmosphere. Two northern clubs should not be travelling to London for a lunch time ko to appease Sky TV. Fans and common sense should come first. It’s about the occasion for the people going to the game. The fans need a bigger voice on such decisions.
