F.A Trophy semi final 2nd leg v Wrexham

Almost home after long train journey to London. This season I've only seen the games at home to Welling and away to Bishops Stortford and Barnet. Despite recent reports I was quite shocked how poor the football was yesterday compared to these three games. It was barely better than a park football te...

Same here. Leaving home at 8.15 to get the train down.

Looked like it to me although we were a long way away. He & a defender were chasing a ball then he just fell to the ground.

Re: crawley town v torquay united - 3/3/12

First game I've got to for a while but the most enjoyable for ages. Enjoyment doubled as it was Crawley we beat. Not much of a game but pitch must take a lot of blame for that. Great support. As soon as I got in the ground I could see they hadn't given us enough space. Given league positions 400+ wa...

Re: not bloody goal music again!!

No to goal music. Tacky, American and pointless. Let the fans celebrate spontaniously, not orchestrated by the public address.

Re: Argyle

The last time I saw Argyle at Torquay was the season they were promoted and Torquay finished bottom but were saved by Stevenage (I think it must have been that season). Certainly it was an end of season match with nothing at stake for Torquay, because Argyle were given the Pop Side and many Torquay ...

Re: Support

Just back after making a weekend of it. Singing area was a good idea but tickets were sold here to people with young kids who clearly didn't want to stand and sing. Some moved in the first half, but the singers only really got going when some moved to the back of the higher tier at half time. We joi...

Re: Ticket Fiasco

Normal procedure at places like Old Trafford if tickets get lost in post is for club to advise ticket offcie at the ground there of the details and they can be picke dup on the day.

Re: Seating & Travel Arrangements - Old Trafford.

Our tickets have arrived.
I asked for £36 behind goal and was told they could only sell corners.
They have taken money for £36 tickets but sent us £26 ones - WL102 which I assume is in the corner.

Re: How many will we take ?

Less than 10,000 - I'd say about 8,000.

Not Wembley
Match less crucial to future of club than BSP play off.
Money etc
