It's only a fiver (assuming you qualify for a concession), you're going to see decent opposition and, if Stanley play like they did in the second half today, we've a decent chance of winning. As Cashy says, us Stanley Old Boys boycotted it in the past because of these youth teams, but Andy says this is a worthwhile competition for the club and he should know. This competition isn't going away, so we may as well get maximum financial benefit and maximum enjoyment from it. And just supposing we go all the way to the final...are Stanleyites really going to pass up on their best chance ever to see their team at Wembley, because of some "principle" that even Andy, that most principled of men, doesn't believe in?
