It's not such a bad drive from Swindon. Done it before in about 2 and a half hours. Met Santini at services just outside of Shrewsbury too.
Doubt I'll go this time though.
It looks like a mission from Cardiff. Oh well. |

Can be quite windy up there.
About 5 years ago, it blew a fucking gale....took the skylight right off the Barnes coach, luckily it was in open country, otherwise it could have taken someone's head off. |

Went when Caton scored...also went years back when we took a special train.....it was completly wrecked....think it was a cup match.
Haha. I was on that train too. Think it was 77/78. I've never seen Town fans behave so badly, and that was apart from the train being trashed. Utter chaos. Nevertheless, I'm also pretty sure it was a cup match. Good ground though, lots of nearby free parking and plenty of wandering free-range lamb chops for those of us who have a freezer. |

Welsh A-roads are fucking horrible. Usually covered in sheep. If I were you and I were going, I'd be inclined to go M4, M5, M50. |

Some of the oxford fans were really wanting us aswell in the draw, but they are confident that they can get through. They reckon they haven't been in the third round for yonks. Wrexham are doing quite well, and are a tough team to beat apparently despite their league position.

If my calculations are correct, when this baby hits 88 miles per hour, you're gonna see some serious shit...

Yeah I'm in Bronllys (Brecon area) today and my fuel economy must be something like 17 miles to the gallon. A49 would be quickest route probably, would also save about 40 miles off the journey. I don't even know why I'm considering it. |

Probably haven't been in Round 3 since they beat us to be fair. |

Iffy beat me to it. We got Arsenal at Highbury in the third round after you, great day out.

I think it was 0-2. We scored first and it was incorrectly ruled out for offside. Pires set up Bergkamp for their first, I can't remember their second.
