So Fylde have made the play-off final and Salford or Eastleigh await in the final. Fylde only attracted 1500 for their home play off match against Harrogate. Why oh why is the National league play off final played at Wembley when it will be about a 10th full. There are plenty of decent grounds with a capacity of 20k or so that could host this match. It would be a better atmosphere if it was full up too...🤔

Because the FA is still paying for the massively over cost Wembley and as a result wants every game possible to played there. I'd be surprised if there was more than 15,000 in attendance for the play-off final, whoever is playing in it. Before the new Wembley was built, the final would be held at grounds of appropriate size. Either the final was held at Stoke City's ground or Leicester City's. Both grounds are pretty much central in the country, the perfect size, and relatively easy for everyone to get to, unlike Wembley.

I'm going to stick my neck out and say at least one came from Gerring losing his man in the box.
Woking have a terrible record of conceding from set pieces.

Perhaps the Woking faithful might now start singing our Gerring song!
