Get yourself on that coach, follow the bees, create a good atmosphere and have a good time. We should be taking a much larger following away here, this is a real chance to get a win under our belt and have the chance at a giant in the next round in which I'm sure we would take a huge following away. Come on bees lets fill these coaches up.

It’s difficult I’m away and I also live in Crawley so would have driven. It would be easy for me to have a pop at people not booking on the coach. It is a shame as it’s a fantastic offer, hopefully we can fill one coach.

We live in Milton Keynes so will be driving up as we have an hour head start, but the offer is great.

29 of 80 pledged is a poor show.

Come on folks. Those of you who can afford to and have the time please do so.

My issue isn't with those who never showed an interest in coach travel in the first place. I am also not surprised that some of those who showed an interest aren't following it through - that will always happen. But what about all those who went to Blackburn Rovers a few seasons ago? Anybody who went to Blackburn you'd think might go to Accrington (practically same location).

The offer is brilliant and it will be such a shame if the hard work of BFCSA isn't appreciated.

As one of those who has booked, I am prepared to pay £10 extra to try and ensure the coach runs. At £20 it was a bargain, at £30 it’s still a good deal. It’s now too late to make other arrangements and I will be very disappointed if the coach doesn’t run. Those that haven’t booked please reconsider and those who have booked please think about upping your contribution.

A hour before your post it was stated above your post that a total of 29 tickets have been sold.

At least now this has answered people's questions as to why TK hasn't done more to organise things for supporters such as coach travel to away games, after a member of the supporters association has pledged his own money as deposit for these coaches it's such a shane. But hopefully now some questions as to why doesn't TK do more will stop. As this is why. We had 1800 supporters at the Hive against Torquay, yet we cannot get 100 to attend a FA cup match were if we was to win there is a chance we could draw a big club in the next round.

When the original survey was done, how many of the 80 people expected to pick a coach up miles away from where anyone lives. The majority of supporters live in and around the Underhill area, not Edgware, Burnt Oak, Colindale etc. This has always been the problem with trying to run coaches that they have to go from the Hive. Had the time departing at 8.00am from The Odeon been announced to start with, more people would have booked. Once it was revealed everyone had to try to get to the Hive, it was clear most could not make that. You can take the club out of Barnet but you can't change where people live, that's why they support Barnet.

I said that I was tentative dependent on price.

However, I can't do this as I'm now scheduled to work on Saturday morning but I am willing to pay for a seat if someone wants to go in my place. I'll transfer the money now.
