BCFC1512 Posted October 29, 2019 Report Share Posted October 29, 2019 Reduced allocation for this one this season. Can see another Luton, sell out quick hopefully the club give us more than 40 minutes notice for sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fat Cigar Posted October 29, 2019 Report Share Posted October 29, 2019 Just done me bit of research: QPR have been allocated 1,970 tickets for their trip to Fulham (Fri 22nd Nov) Derby 1,964 (Tues 26th Nov) Don't we usually get 3,000-4,000? So, expect half what we normally get given. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TETBURY MASSIVE Posted October 29, 2019 Report Share Posted October 29, 2019 I think they are doing something to the stand by the river... and the fans that are normally on that side are behind the goal for one season. @Between heaven and hell is the man in the know.

Seems mad though, 14-15 hours on busses and coaches for 90 minutes of football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swampy Posted October 29, 2019 Report Share Posted October 29, 2019 "Seems mad though, 14-15 hours on busses and coaches for 90 minutes of football." Exactly which is why I gave up a few decades ago ... I will drive to Avebury after England win the World Cup Saturday morning, have a stroll across to the West Kennet Long Barrow, a beer in the Red Lion, up to Wroughton for the game versus Trowbridge and down the M4 to a friend's in Bristol Saturday night. Cost? Maybe £30 ... and far more relaxing than driving up north on a Friday night. Non League is the way forward ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've done equally long journeys for non league football, or at least planned them before postponements, Manor Farm away in Sunderland as an example. Would have cost me more on transport alone than Friday nights game has for a ticket and travel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedM Posted October 30, 2019 Report Share Posted October 30, 2019 It’s not 7 hours on a CATS coach. Usually the journey is about 4 or 4 and a half but you stop in the Services for at least an hour and probably get to the ground at least an hour before too. Drivers can only drive four hours before they have to have a legal break. Rest assured it’s not 7 hours to Barnsley unless there are delays on the motorway of course.

Coaches are leaving a shade under 7 hours before the game, and it's another 40 minutes to an hour for me to get to AG by bus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a heads up to anyone who might be thinking of taking in Wroughton v Trowbridge, give a wide berth to the bloke in the rugby shirt who looks unbearably smug.
