Lets say the investors still dont complete, Then you have a mad dash for a millionaire, Administration or you try and beg the HMRC.
Well with 3000-4000 minimum at Luton (Ave over 6000) you could get a deferal from the HMRC as they will see a chunk of money due. With possibly more via a replay or 2nd round game.

They get over 6000 i can easily see 50-60% of their fan base turning up. Its also their first year in the non league "Fa Cup". And its not like theyve drawn a team from 4 leagues below.
I can see the gate being around 4000, we should take 200-300 to this easily and add the Charlton, Millwall and other fans that will tag on.

And the good thing is their fans have been saying they will beat us and should 0play the ressies. I'd fancy a buzzed up Pugh Cumbers and Pires who were all in the League last year... to be up for this against their first team, against their reserves they would just destroy them.
This game is also for people like Jack Parkinson, who could have sodded off over the past two years but committed to us and has been rewarded that we have a good team and now a great day out.
Let them take us easily it will work in our favour. Will be good to see Ex Welling player Dan Gleeson again. Played with us Under Paul Parker?? on loan from Cambridge United.

totally agree with that last post - if they think they are already in the next round they will be in for a BIG surprise when we turn up in a couple of weeks time!

Possible we may get some Millwall fans as they are away on the Friday night to Swansea, however Charlton are at home on 11th to Walsall. However with our travelling fan base I think your 2-300 is a good estimate
I wouldn't expect more than 1,800-2000 to be honest. We couldn't care less about this competition with the league our main aim. We'd play reserves/youth players if it was possible.
Our reserve team though would probably come top 10 in the BSP. I'd expect players like Atieno, Dan Walker, Godfrey Poku, Pavel Besta, Amari Morgan Smith, JJ O'Donnell, Alex Lacey, Lewis Kidd to play. Mixture of players who have played 1-5 games this season who are mostly on the first team bench, youth players and 2-3 regular 1st teamers in defence where our squad is lacking.

Anybody heard of SR Education? They run NVQ training and apprenticeships in football and their clients include Charlton and Welling United according to the Non League Daily site. It seems thay have just taken over Ilkeston Town (see Non League Daily site) and intend to go big on community involvement. Any link with our situation?

I am sure you are right you dont care, but for a team like us this is a dream draw, and a well deserved day out for the hardcore and the team for all this seasons work!
Some of your fans on your forum are being a bit over ****y and I think we could make SOME of you eat your words, hoping for a great game and a good day out!

You play the ressies/youth you'll lose. BTW you won't win the Conference either Billy Big Bo***cks.
Our players have saved us. Without their amazing efforts so far this season we would not be playing Luton. It is them that are doing as much as anyone to save the club. Luton didnt make their name come out ... it was the Welling squad that got the ball in the hat to be "in it to win it".
Prices I have heard are the same as the Corby game adults £10 oaps and under 17 £5 and uder 10s free, they are hope to hit the 3,000 mark. hope you have a good day out, but not to good a result lol
I know you meant booze in general instead of lager, but me drinking lager would be like a vampire drinking holy water! No thanks :D Oh i'll probably have the odd pint or two of real ale though :)
