Aldershot Town v Woking - FA Trophy Semi-Final - Saturday 5th April 2025 (Match Day Thread)

Post by Aldershot »

Starting the matchday thread early on this one as information has dropped in the past hour or so regarding entry...

Ahead of Saturday's Isuzu FA Trophy Semi-Final with Woking, we must urge supporters to arrive much earlier than usual. With extra security checks in action and a sold out crowd, it will take much longer than usual to enter the EBB Stadium.

Turnstiles will open at 11am and there will be extra security checks both inside and outside of the Stadium. There will also be specific turnstiles in the home end for each area of the ground as follows:

Turnstiles 1-4 for South Stand and Mike Pusey Community Stand
Turnstiles 5-8 for East Bank
Turnstiles 9-10 for North Stand

These turnstiles and their corresponding areas will all be appropriately sign-posted on the day. Those with tickets queuing in the wrong turnstile will not be accepted and will cause further delays.

With the EBB Stadium expected to be at full capacity, we are delighted to be offering more facilities throughout the ground.

With the Phoenix Bar behind the South Stand closed to the public for Hospitality for this fixture, there will be an outside bar available on the front green.

The JML Bar and Hogs Back Builders East Bank Bar will still be open as normal.

The HotShots Cafe and North Stand Burger Van will be open as usual, with an additional Burger Van open up by the East Bank. We will also have a new food cart on the front green, serving authentic Nepalese cuisine. With sunny weather expected, we will also have an ice cream van on arrival into the ground.

Extra toilets will be provided with portaloos behind the Southwest Standing terrace, and behind the East Bank.

Who else starts?

If you don’t start Theo you have to go Jones LWB Frost cm with Henry as the ‘10’. Henry and Barrett together hasn’t worked.

I worry about Theo being in the side under normal circumstances but do we trust him to control himself in this sort of atmosphere?
