Will they fill the Shay?

As well as Hereford United and Morecambe, there are two other clubs in the play-offs this weekend and they meet at the Shay.

However according to their respective websites there doesn't seem to be the level of interest in the game compared with the one at Christie Park.

Grays Athletic are finding it difficult to persuade many of their supporters to travel to Yorkshire despite a coach seat price of just £16.

Only one coach is expected to travel with a capacity to take just 51 supporters.

It's not much better at the home venue, Halifax. Their website reported yesterday that just over 2,000 tickets had been sold for the game.

UPDATE 1pm: Halifax now say 3,000 tickets sold but they do not say whether that is to both clubs or just to Halifax supporters.

The Shay stadium can hold 6561 supporters.
