2002 - that doesn't mean that we weren't there in some numbers though.

And of course we've been in the Prem since then so the game wasn't relevant in the answering of this question.
 
I can see this one being on TV so perhaps be on the Sunday.

Good decision to put the TV gantry in the East Stand then. Only the South and West Stands (plus away area) will be open and I'd hate to see the players running about in front of an apparently empty stadium if the cameras had been on the other side.

One question to be asked is will this game set the record for the greatest proportion of away fans at the Walkers, particularly if it's Stevenage? Or perhaps even the greatest number even? Will the towns of Stevenage or Horsham see this game as a cup-final and turn out in massive numbers? Could we be looking at 10k or fewer City fans and 3k or more away fans?

I'm reminded by this of Fulham's FA Cup tie with Bristol Rovers at the Cottage last season. Attendance was 13634, and over 7000 were reportedly Pirates fans, actually outnumbering home support. Fulham fans really are crap.
 
I just figured that if either us or Leeds played crap teams, one of us would be on the box. Leeds play Northampton, we play Stevenage/Horsham. I think we will definitely be on if we are against Horsham.

AFC Wimbledon will be one game no doubt. There's a few league teams travelling to non-league grounds which make decent telly.

There is no attraction at all - except to those who can't make the game

In fact it's bollocks if we are on telly, 'cos it probably means a stupid kick off time
