dezgimed Posted September 10, 2013 Report Share Posted September 10, 2013 Back in the old days, the Arkells lot used to rush down the steps and fill out the Bank if there was room. Way more popular! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cider red Posted September 10, 2013 Report Share Posted September 10, 2013 Got mine in the Stratton last week, think that's where the main atmosphere and congregation of fans will be to be honest, a couple good results in the next 2 and we will sell out no problems Edit: I've never understood why they don't just put a temporary roof on the Stratton end, cant be very expensive, didn't pompy do something similar?

The reason there is no roof on the stratton bank is the council wont grant them planning permission as the house owners behind the stand living in shrivenham road have complained that it will block the light into their back gardens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

citybs3 Posted September 10, 2013 Report Share Posted September 10, 2013 Got mine for the Stratton bank. When buying the tickets at the city shop they said they didn't have a seating plan so they weren't able to give me tickets behind the goal which I wanted. Then they said Swindon stewards are really strict on getting fans to sit in their allocated seat. Will not be happy if forced to sit on my own!

Miah Dennehy Posted September 11, 2013 Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 Depends on the weather and what kind of view you want. The Stratton Bank is OK if it's dry and you don't mind being behind the goal - it's the one that always looks as if there's no-one in it whenever Swindle are on telly, The Arkells is a traditional type of wing stand although I seem to remember the wooden tip up seats are a bit on the small side...but that could be because I've got a big *rse. Last time I went in The Arkells Rovers fans played a game of catch with the Swindon fans with those seats. It seems to be a recurring theme Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chalky Posted September 11, 2013 Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 http://www.bcfc.co.uk/news/article/20130910-swindontickets-1046918.aspx Just short of a thousand sold so far and general sale from tomorrow.

Lew-T Posted September 11, 2013 Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 That's quite good. Should get around 2,500 I would think! Would it be pay on the day if it doesn't sell out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WolfOfWestStreet Posted September 13, 2013 Report Share Posted September 13, 2013 I expect atmos from both areas.

superman Posted September 13, 2013 Report Share Posted September 13, 2013 Let's just all turn up and take the place over like we usually do & take the pi55 and watch them crapping themselves in their cup final.

Our away support is better than yours, we took over 4000 to coventry last season 2000 to wolves tomorrow which is not bad as we have a big game with chelsea coming up as well as a league 1 game against a team that flatters to deceive and should be in the premiership if managed correctly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
