Not everybody reads the website or twitter. This says that non attendees seats will be reallocated to a non season ticket holder. Why was I not offered one of the many,many seats available from non attendees? It's just another farcical decision from a club who are near the top of the league in farcical decisions. As I've said elsewhere the damage is done. This is no longer the club I have grown to love over 50 years.😪

It is a sore point but it seems that Mike George(Ted) is still the only person on earth to see the mighty Stones at Wembley. We live on in hope that one day we too will witness it.🤣 Never mind see you all at Maidenhead next week😁

Will all those empty seats in the main stand, it can only be a jobsworth of Olympic standard not to let folk in. Just another gaffe from the club in what has been been such a disappointing season overall.

I've calmed down a bit now and 2.5 hours of live headbanging music coming up will chill me even further😁

Just seen big Brendan's video of our 2nd half penalty. It should have been disallowed for encroachment. I couldn't see who the player was but he nearly beat the ball to the 6 yard box.

So sorry Swordy that you were so insulted by a jobsworth who hit their facts wrong and forgot to be human.
You deserve a full apology from your strongly worded and quite correct complaint and hopefully you’ll get one.

Gotta agree with swordy and others. The club hierarchy seem to have lost all interest in OUR club. The debacle about ready for this year, the manager situation and, allegedly, getting someone else to sack the hak, two games from Wembley and appearing to have little interest. Just end this season and hopefully at least get someone employed who can make management decisions.

Just under 1700 Maidstone fans today, for a quarter final that isn't great, I was expecting quite a few more.
Just goes to show people are well and truly fed up.

Interesting interview with the Barnet manager on YouTube. Seems their scouts did some homework on our penalty takers and he reckons they got them all right. Not sure about Sol's first though! Cropper, their right back, signed on loan from Grimsby recently. Did ok, but what a throw in he has. Could reach the penalty spot from not far short of half way. Small lesson for our StonesTV interviewer, methinks. Keep the questions short and open - don't feed George (or Hak) the answers, make them work.

Main stand season ticket holders were given priority for their regular seats so I guess they weren't letting non st holders in until closer to kickoff. It was 14.51 with at least 350 empty seats. I've watched virtually every home cup/trophy game from the main stand so why change the f**king rules today.Anybody who knows anything about football knows that ST holders view paying to watch a game with utter contempt and 98% of the time they stay away. As far as I'm concerned if season tickets were valid for the stand today then you and others should not have to pay to get in,or at least make it voluntary. The annoying thing is if I'd gone in the away end I would have got a seat. How do they view paying to watch a game with contempt considering they've paid in advance for most of them.

Nevertheless many STH's stayed away yesterday. Supporters are down in the dumps and you will only get the hard core attending for remaining matches. There are other more uplifting looking alternatives to shelling out at the Gallagher. The club has to compete for the time, money and attention of paying customers. Its been a rotten season, can't wait for it to finish.

Because I know season ticket holders who wont come to cup games because they firmly believe it should cover all home games and despite knowing this when they buy one they refuse to pay again and therefore don't attend. I know one bloke,who's name escapes me,who told me he hadn't missed a league game in 10 years but apart from Stevenage he has never seen a home cup game and the only reason he saw Stevenage is because his company hired a box and he got in for nothing. I know this doesn't apply to all season ticket holders but judging by the empty seats yesterday its a view held by many of them.
