Have you seen the pictures of their ground I posted earlier?

You won't need a ticket to see the game, all you have to do is stand on one of the many hills that overlook the place or peer over a low wall! Many people are soon gonna realise this and travel down without a ticket just to soak up the atmosphere of a classic away trip in the pubs before and after. Seeing the game while you're there won't be a problem with the state of their ground. You're right of course, City fans aren't the type to go 'mooching about town' but the local police might not know (or believe) that. Some constabularies around the UK are better than others and some treat football fans the same whether they're Norwich or Millwall unfortunately. And they, not the FA, will have the final say as to whether they think a village club is a safe place to hold a football match of this magnitude. I believe their average crowd is somewhere around the 200 mark. So about the same as Dereham Town then. Makes you think, doesn't it?
