Title: Notts County Away
Post by: Abrahammer on Monday, November 19, 2012, 19:38:05
Assume a few people will be taking in Hooters pre match?

Imagine we will take 700-800, should be a good test although their home form isn't their strength

Looking forward to it

On this point (well County away), do any London lot know what train you're getting up...I will join you when you pass my way...and we can drink a beer or two before we get to Nottingham...and then drink in Nottingham, of course.

Yay, I'm allowed to go to this (hopefully Nottingham is good for shopping or I'm dead!).

Looking forward to this one, another to tick off the ground list and staying over in Nottingham. Trent Bridge Inn also a good shout and will head there for a few pre match beers!

Avoid the pubs near the station. Last time I was in one of them a young scrote was taunting a barman about the death of a girl at a fairground that he may/or may not have been negligent for, and a CS gas cannister was produced, cueing mayhem. Not far from there though is some canal basin area with about three large bars.

I doubt that will happen again, don't seem like a common thing.

Another game that's closer than a home game so we will be going.

Haven't got any tickets, so will be paying on the day as it seems to be the same price.

Larwood and Voice another good pub just round trent bridge.

Will be in the trent bridge inn nice and early on Saturday - a little 20minute walk for me to the ground, got a few county fans who are a bit worried with their home form and looks like we will have a whole side stand to ourselves!

Hooters is very pricey so should stay around West Bridgeford for pre drinks - plenty of decent pubs

Train tickets brought for this one, looking forward to it! Night out at Leicester uni afterwards so hopefully a win to celebrate  :pint:

Count me in, i'm going, good away day location. Can see us taking in excess of 1,000. See you in Ye Olde Trip to Jerusalem. This Hooters place, heard quite a few mentions of it, is it topless waitressing or skantily clad? And do the prices reflect the fact it's a fleshpot?

WALSALL, enough said! Nottingham, great city, superb traditional pubs, Hooters, we'll surpass 1,000 no problems. We will generate an unholy noise :pint:

962 to be precise, but for some reason we always seem to take just over 1,000 to Nottm even though its further away.

Like it, and we can all bring a flag to show our cosmopolitan fanbase, me with my Serbia flag, Coca with his Bosnian, Scilly Red, Gorgi Boy with his St Andrew's, Kerry Red with the tricolor, Fitton with the Indian one, you get the idea. Collaborate on this and we've got the makings of something very special. :nod:

I thought the 'official' away attendance at Walsall appeared to be massaged somewhat seeing it was cash on the gate entry.

Sure I read somewhere that the stand held 1500 and was pretty much full
