Over 1,000 Scarborough Fans Will Travel to Saturday's FA Cup Clash

Friday, 1 November 2024 06:00

By Matthew Pells

Scarborough Athletic will be taking over one thousand fans with them to Saturday's first round Emirates FA Cup game at Burton Albion.

Chairman Trevor Bull says having such a large number of away supporters will be a real boost to the players as they face League one opposition.

Over one thousand Scarborough Athletic fans will be travelling to Burton Albion following strong ticket sales in Scarborough this week.

Trevor Bull says the large number of ticket sales this week mean the club will be taking a large away crowd with them to the game.

Trevor says there will be tickets available on the day at the Pirelli stadium, he says his contacts at Burton Albion have been surprised by the number of tickets Boro have sold.

Trevor says the cup fixture has reignited local people's interest in the club.

Trevor says he's looking forward to tomorrow's game

Local ticket sales have now finished, but there will be tickets available at the Pirelli stadium tomorrow.

And if you can't make the journey, we will have full match commentary in a special programme starting at 2pm on DAB only.

There is more build up to the game in the latest episode of the Sea Dogs Podcast.
