We played them in the FA Cup in 2005. Drew 2-2 at St Marys after being 2-0 up. Don't remember what the attendance was or how many tickets they got. Went to the replay which we won 3-1 from being 1 down early on. Crouchie (2?) and Super Kev scored for us I believe. | |

The replay at GP had 11,720. Re the grudge you mentioned, it looks like Brentford belatedly requested more tickets, once they had won their 4th round replay, but by then it was all too late.
