That clashes with a potential FA Trophy replay.
Which would have priority? :laugh:
It shows what the FA Trophy is becoming - an inconvenience. Let's scrap replays and have extra time and penalties on the Saturday for all matches until the semi-finals, where it becomes two legs. And bearing in mind most of the rounds are played in winter, another Tuesday night for the loyal Bees if it's postponed is not good, especially before/after Christmas.

Those social nights in the clubhouse were just like Wheel Tappers and Shunters TV show - check it on Youtube.
The Brothers Lee had been on New Faces or Opportunity Knocks and were three brothers who did impressions in unison! We had an Elvis Tribute act one weekend who was probably the worse tribute act I have ever seen. He was a last minute deputy for the original booking and had a cassette player playing backing tapes. The tape got slower and slower as the night went on. He was dreadful.

Ooh - that could be something - a 'Top 10 Weirdest Things at Barnet FC' as there has been a few....

- Play Steve Percy in a competitive game and get one of their players sent off
- Chairman assaults a Sun Photographer leading to the paper hiring an advertising van to drive around Underhill during a game with 'Ban Fat Stan'
- Sign a deal with Loaded leading to a monthly photoshoot at Underhill of Sean Devine with a topless model
- Edgar Davids

What else?
Edgar Davids sending the team bus to rescue stranded Barnet fans post Accrington away
TK personally picking up Steve Percy when there was a danger of missing an away match vs Bristol Rovers

I would like us to have a real shot at winning the FA Trophy this season. It offers a realistic chance of silverware and the chance of a day out at Wembley.

I’d add the Mark Marshall drug test fiasco. It was all Charlie Taylor’s fault as well. Not only was he an utterly terrible player, he also got one of our most talented players banned from football for a long time whose absence really hit us and he left us on a free.

IIRC in the anti-doping agency's report on his suspension they even went as far to say that the squad were all complete bellends (in more formal language!) when they were tested.

Snacks being sold American style from sellers wandering through the crowd with polystyrene boxes, as the kiosks were demolished to increase the capacity slightly.
