...can i just remind everyone that you will only be able to travel on coaches if you are either a member of iMUSC (Independent Maidstone United Supporters Club) or the Maidstone United Fans Club

I believe its in Bedfordshire so its quite a trek although I can't find any info on how big their ground is or their average gate.

EDIT - their ground holds 3000 so on par with ours I guess.

Usual gate between 100-200 so not exactly the best supported team, let's hope we grab the opportunity to get into the 4th qualifying round.

A couple of OS nuggets gleaned from their Wiki page:

Older fans may have already gone through their turnstiles, as they were originally in place at Bramall Lane, Sheffield.

Their nickname is The Waders and their badge depicts the silhouette of a heron. In UK ornithological parlance the heron is not considered a wader. A sandpiper, plover or avocet would have been more suitable.

I'll get my coat.

Don't forget no booze on the coach due to it being an FA game you're going to.

All the games that I have been to on the coach, there has never been booze on board, whatever game/format.

As Lunch correctly states, all coaches are alcohol free!
however, we may be carrying bit in our bladders on the way back!

It looks like they moved to their current ground only recently. There are pictures of their old ground on the Pyramid Passion website www.pyramidpassion.co.uk/html/biggleswade_town.html . 

Their Club website has a few pics of their new ground at Langford Road www.biggleswadetownfc.co.uk/#/picture-tour/4540065127. Only a 82 mile round trip for me.......almost like a home match!!!

Holy smoke, looks like Tim designed the concrete and I built that project. Sand cement with a bit of lime jelly?
