Reading the Chester forum the result clearly hasn't gone down too well:

Surprised at the result. Had the penalty lottery gone our way could easily have been us heading to the final. Not keen on either club, but always good to see a club whose supporters are arrogant enough to think they're too big to be in this league get beaten by a so called smaller club. Just a shame the smaller club are Brackley.

Talk of their fans coming onto the pitch and attacking the Brackley players after the final whistle?

Reading their forum, it seems they claim Wrexham fans (or goats) were in the away end with the Brackley fans!!! Not a happy place!

Might have boosted their numbers then! Sure City would have sold the 600.

Their allocation was less than 600.

It’s quite painful seeing Brackley making it to the final, I was hoping Chester would just smash them 4-0 and we could say ‘oh well, that would’ve been us’ but in reality Chester were there for the taking. Bit of a missed opportunity for us potentially. I’d fancy that Kidderminster away trip too, imagine how many we’d have had in that away end - would’ve been an amazing day.
P.S penalty shootouts are not lotteries, I wish people on here would stop saying that haha.

It is, as I'm sure you're aware, just a phrase:
Lottery: a situation whose success or outcome is governed by chance.
Of course you mean this sort of thing:

Lottery or not, we still lost though.

It would've been a great day, proper club, proper ground, great atmosphere but I can't get past the fact that we probably only had a hundred there for the league game.

I was going to come up from London for that. Train strike put pay to that. Likewise a few of my mates from Gloucester were booked on train. Bloody strikes!!!!

Wow just read the Chester website we were lucky Keiran missed that penalty kick that could have been us.Flares and smoke bombs thrown at away supporters and the coaches bricked. What to do ? Club large fine ,anyone caught on camera reported to police ordered to do their community service between noon and six o.clock all next season.Ten points deducted for next season or demoted to a lower league.
