I was telling my golf buddy yesterday how the draw for FA Cup works out from a Stanley perspective, and I said the ideal draw for us would be MU, MC or Liverpool away. BINGO.

Re: F.A. Cup - Rd 3
 

OK, how did YOU do that?

Re: F.A. Cup - Rd 3
 

Just wait.......as soon as the ticket details are announced, someone will be on ......complaining about the price of the tickets.......you see.....mark my words.....:tongueout

Re: F.A. Cup - Rd 3
 

I may be wrong but, just checking on the Liverpool website and it says that "away fans are normally located in the lower tier of the Anfield Road Stand with a guide allocation of 2,000 seats available". The "guide price for cup games against League 2 opposition" in that stand varies as follows" for the 24/25 season:

Adults £12 to £20 (depending on section in stand - applies to all prices for adults and below)
Over 65 £12 to £15
Young adult £7.50 to £12
Junior £4

Honestly can't believe the prices are so low. Still only guide prices, we wait for the official announcement.........would think 2,000 will easily be enough for us away.....

Great to read about the excitement the draw has rightly produced - really pleased that you all get a FANtastic away day. Expect that those that apparently never walk alone will probably field bench + fringe players, but they are no doubt international standard. Pleased for Andy Holt that club finances will get a shot in the arm and perhaps John, Ged & Co might get the chance of useful networking with next season's loan crop in mind. And if Liverpool should be fortunate to have the game wrapped up with 20 to go, then I hope our bench is fully utilised. Think what a boost the would give our younger players to have an Anfield appearance on their CVs. Particularly the young man whose penalty contributed to making the ocassion possible. For the Clayton End choirmaster, how about a new serenade along the lines " if ya drink yer milk you can play for Stanley". Hope the 'missing' faithful will return to the teraces to at least get enough vouchers for an Anfield ticket. OK, this owd south coast resident Accy lad will shut up now - where's mi tablets ? - think I've got a touch o'er excited !

Jings, I’d like to think we’d need more than 2,000 but then, given the usual level of local support, maybe not.

Anyway if it is a “mere” 2000 I hope the club offer them first to existing season ticket holders.

Re: F.A. Cup - Rd 3
 

Season Ticket holders will be first :)

Re: F.A. Cup - Rd 3
 

Quite simple Chimer and obvious really, for years Coley craved a tie against Liverpool when it was possible - F.A. Cup/League Cup - but it was not to be.....

First time in ever he is not in charge and boom - we are off to Anfield....

Like the great Brian Clough never won said trophy, somethings are just meant to be.

Liverpool expanded the ground an we can and we can ask for 9,000.

My mum went to Anfield when Stanley played Liverpool in the cup in 1956, she remembers the train there being jam packed with Accrington fans.
I'm so excited at the prospect of following in her footsteps for this game - roll on January
