£28 at swindon next week, christ!

No ta

Not that it will make it any less palatable, but its £27, which is what I'll be paying. I agree it's too much fwiw.

Harrogate have a bad habit of not revealing away attendances.
Swindon's average away attendance is 946 which is number that can perhaps be used !!!!
Over to you Exile

Harrogate away end only holds 450, so I was going to use that. Does any Robins know if it was a sell out?

Most of them are, it’s not an anti-swindon thing, it was the same at crewe, we’re probably £25 or whatever.

It’s daft that fans only pay a max of £30 in the PL but we’re watching some dinkiest run round the pitch for nearly the same price.

 

[Conker]

It’s £21 at Mansfield. £1 too much.

At least 6 quid too much 15 quid for league two footy is about right

i went to All Saints when it wasn’t shit.

I would never ever send my kids to that school.

Leeds would’ve taken more.

Manor was certainly interesting, i went to All Saints when it wasn’t shit (and before the science teacher attacked the student with an instrument )

That was a long time ago, I'm sure it's all water Under The Bridge

I know that science teacher very well and not have a bad word said against him. He was just under a lot of pressure at the time. Kids can be a pain in the arse at times.

He was a legend of a teacher, Mr Harvey.

I had no doubt it was the kids and not his fault. I know many teachers who’ve left the profession recently.

Been given 2988 tickets for Swindon away. Touch and go whether we sell out I reckon. Lot of money and it's a long way to go on boxing day.

I'd be thrilled if we took anything over 2000.

Sorry but can we get back on topic please, which school did you go to chief?

If we're still there or thereabouts I think 2,500 will be about right. Just cba with shit away form like we are doing. A nice hefty win away at FGR will help, and not having another away game for a couple of weeks will also help.

I’ve just looked him up, he was tried for attempted murder!
Smacked the kid round the head with a dumbbell shouting ‘die, die, die.

Anyway I hope you’ve recovered from the ordeal now Adam.

Yeah they released me straight away thankfully, they asked me some obvious questions and knowing i’m into football they asked me about grimsby to which i replied “they’re fucking shit and the town looks like it’s been bombed”

Realising i was obviously correct they realised i was fit to leave.

Arsed if I'm going all that way on Boxing Day. Fuck that.

 

[AdamStag]

I always thought teams got localish games on boxing day/over christmas. We’re at home to grimsby and doncaster on 26/29th and stockport away NYD so certainly fell lucky on that front i suppose.

I wanted to cover all the grounds I've not been to and Swindon are on the list. Ballache.

 

[Pilot_Phonic]

I've done Swindon before now (Carey's first game in charge after Denis Smith was sacked) and lost. Hoping for a better result this time round.

My lad is ticking grounds off his list. He's currently on 51. Not bad for an 11 year old!

When I was 11 I’d only been to one! (Saltergate)

When I was 11 I didn't do any. My first away game was when I was 12 when we beat Stoke away (the only time we ever beat them in our history, so what does that tell ya??? )

Ave 650 so congrats to Walsall and other eight teams above them.

 

[Richard Cranium]

We’ve sold the 604 tickets Swindon sent us, can still pay on the day so might make 700, more than I expected at £27 a go and it being miles away. Pubs opening at 8 though so should be a good one regardless of the result

 

[Conker]

Fair play to those going it’s an expensive and long day out.

 

[TheDon]

Thought you'd bring more to be honest,given position in the league and being unbeaten.

 

[northstandexile]

We only took 587 to Swindon last season so anything over 600 is a par score.

We never travel well to Swindon, as many of our lot don’t do train journeys, and by road it is a pig of a journey from Mansfield.
