I can't afford the £100 a trip to go from Plymouth to Swindon, could you afford that at 21 without support from family? And an education to think of? Thought not plus this game was at Southend. I'm going to the next home game because I'm stupid with money and it's the best I can do for now. You sir are on the list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have kids and grandkids who don't equate to me having 2 kids, serving in a war and travelling around the world at .....21.

I don't doubt that the generations have changed! I fully appreciate that we live in a much more comfortable generation now for folk my age. My point is, that I cannot afford £40+ for a train ticket and £15-£23 for a matchday ticket! and any other expense of the day!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Rest of the World debate. But if I wasn't at Uni trying to better myself for the future then YES I would have been at the Swindon game tonight!

Rednready Posted January 26, 2005 Report Share Posted January 26, 2005 Now lets get one thing straight, I love students. Some need a little garlic, but by and large a tasty bunch.

We're all waiting for his club QPR to save up and bid for him.... Fact is the guy has kept to his word and stayed, he's stayed longer than most have expected him too. Hopefully when he does go it'll be the summer.... Not that it matters a great deal now anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
