Would have gone but for a work commitment.Instead will listen to radio and avoid going into town as 5,000 Young Farmers invade the Bay for their Annual Convention/Piss-up.

To trash the pubs, surprised plainmoor has not been hired out, it would save costs on destruction costs

I'm just about to sort out a train to Dover, not sure how far it is from the ground but hoping to make it tomorrow to see Nicholson and the lads stick two fingers up to Harrop and Osborne.

. you might be able to afford £60 0dd quid but i can't Gullscorer. are you sure that a national express coach can get me there and then there is another one back after the match. I wasn't so sure they ran that often. but when you add the coach fare plus the admission and other costs into account its probably closer to the £70 mark. Assuming i need a taxi at Dover that could add another £10 to £12 plus if i get back really late I would need another £10. I can't walk that far on sticks

The nearest railway station is Kearsney which is around a 15 minute walk away from the ground. This station is served by trains from London Victoria and Dover Priory, although not all trains stop at this station, so check beforehand.

Dover Priory Railway Station is also served by trains from London St Pancras and Charing Cross. However, the station is over two miles away from the ground, so either take another train to Kearnsey or take a taxi up to the Crabble grounds....a fit young lad can do that Dave but be warned ~ like walking to Plainmoor from Torquay station; a lot of it is uphill ~ especially at the end!

Thanks for that, I'm sure I can handle the physical bit, just passed my medical and fitness test for my close protection role at festivals and events ;-)

Segregation today. Quite a trek up hill to away end but glad we're all together under cover. Looks like there will be a good following.

Chester too, even though they're probably just about safe.

Yeah on Radio Devon, there's a radio commentary link for matchdays in the 'Useful Links' topic pinned to the top of All things Plainmoor.
