Don't booze in Hyde as it's an absolute shit hole

Thank christ it's near Manchester is all I can say

 

[GFCSludge]

Unlucky Daggers you miss out on the tie of the round, we get Orient at home.

He does come out with some gems the Oxford lad.

Hyde vs MK Dons moved to the Friday night to grace the BBC2 screens.

That's fortunate for me as I'll be in Tenerife so now will be able to watch the game from a local bar. Hang on.......

 

[Camborne Gills]

Seems that the Charlton v Truro game is now on the Sunday. I am guessing the BBC has had something to do with it.

Millwall are at home in the league on the Saturday plus the firework display at Blackheath, probably the more likely reasons as our game isn't on the box.

Well it's on that split screen thing that the Beeb do for Sunday games so will be able to see the goals as they go in.

 

[K-Win]

Our game at Luton has been selected for overseas viewing. Probably some kind of Brexit negotiation counter-strike.

 

[ThisTinpotLeague]

We are playing Port Vale on the Friday night. Anyone know if this means anything in regards to tv? Surely not...

 

[Millerbri]

Well done Crewe only a tenner for Adults £7 concessions.
Should improve our following by a fair few.
Given that we are at Donny the following Saturday it's a good decision, I reckon it would have been a poor turn out otherwise.

Doubt it. We're playing at Notts County on the Friday night.

That is what I meant about the BBC bit, didn't realise about the other factors. Will be fewer coming up from the Duchy now.

 

[Simpo]

Notts County and Port Vale have been moved to Friday so as not to clash with Forest at home and Stoke at home respectively.

You might be best getting off at Stockport if you're going via train. Plenty of watering holes there, and I'm sure the train stops at Stockport. Hyde isn't far from there either.

If I was going via MK and it was a Saturday I probably would, but I'm going via Lincoln after uni and staying over, so realistically I need to just head straight to the hotel and then head to the ground which sucks.

We've gone £15 adults, £12 for 65+ and £5 for U18's.
I don't anticipate this to be a sell out.

Northampton is a shit away day and so I won't be going. Drinking in a ten pin bowling alley. Embarrassing. Top 5 away days in this division are

1 Bradford
2 Charlton
3 Scunthorpe
4 Shrewsbury
5 Bristol Rovers

Worst are Northampton, Mk Dons, Southend, Wigan and Doncaster

Behave yourself.

 

[Lance Stoe]

Scunthorpe is an excellent away day. It's an intimidating stadium with character. The Berkeley is one of the best footballing pubs in the country and it's only ten minutes walk away. Plenty of interesting pubs in the town centre. As an away day it's top notch

 

[Hurrikeen]

With the greatest respect, Scunny is a terrible awayday, despite having fond memories of the place.

Best
Plymouth
Bristol R
Charlton (if avoiding that horrible pub)

Worst
Scunthorpe
Northampton

 

[Lance Stoe]

Yeah because Gillingham is a cracking away day.

 

[Hedonist Puncture]

Great away day - anywhere where we win
Crap away day - anywhere where we lose
