Semi final

Good record away there, and Gateshead are pretty dire. I'd say if ever we had a good chance of getting to Wembley, this is it. LETS GOO YOU BEEES

We were always going to be away so I'd take this over the others

Yep. We were going to draw a National League team, so why not the lowest placed one?

Shame flights to Newcastle are rather expensive. Train strike according to Bee_Forever too

And the trains are on strike.

Supporters coach anyone??? (Will need two drivers FYI)

It's a long way from Sussex...may as well get the coach question out there...

I was really hoping for a home tie, as it would have been great for more fans to be there and make more memories. That said, we are actually better away from home, so maybe this will suit us, and better to be against one of the lower teams (though they have got this far so will be a tough test).

Shame there is a train strike that day. I'm tempted to go up to Newcastle the day before but the trains can still be temperamental on the days after/before strikes and this would be both (one on the Thursday too). Hopefully the Trust can do a coach or two for this one, I'm sure there would be demand.

Flights are extreme and badly timed so they're out the question. Megabus or National Express doesn't get there early enough on the day. I am assuming this will be 3pm kick off? The bus would have to leave Barnet about 7am latest.

We are making enquiries about coaches. It won't be cheap, as someone else has said, we will require 2 drivers.

The one tie that I was really hoping we'd avoid. I'd be tempted to go on the train if there wasn't a strike that day.

Trains currently not on sale with LNER, a word of warning do not buy a ticket through Trainline for that date, as they will let you buy tickets for trains that potentially won’t exist as the timetable hasn’t been confirmed for that day

Unless you fancy an overnight coach…

Limo anyone?
