I always enjoy going to the football, But can't afford to go to the away games. It just annoying sometimes, that we alll know swindon can do better.

If you want to see a proper game again, with some proper excitement and a proper atmosphere. Then travel to Southend next tuesday. Maybe we can get some pride back for ourselves, on the pitch and on the terraces.

If you leave Newbury at 5.00, you may get there by half time if you're lucky!

It's not the distance that's the problem though.

Yeah that bloke is a mentalist. THREE ONE THREE ONE THREE ONE!!!!
ENGLANDS NUMBER ONE
His wife and kid was with him too but they just sat staring at the game. Didnt say a word. Is he always there? I cant see why anyone would enjoy the townend. The atmosphere is better but you cant see the game! Surely people want to watch the game?

You may be ok, it won't take much to totally f*** things up though. If you hit road works or a minor accident at that time you are talking tail backs of Biblical proportions.
All you can do is leave as early as is feasible for you to do so.
I would take a half day if you can then you can get to sample the 'delights' of Southend sea front.
This of course is a reply to the last post but one!

Im on a minibus. The only lads who couldnt get time off were a pair of heating engineers who cant take time off December-February.
We should roll into Southend 4ish. Probably out of our heads. Gona have one down the sea front and take some phone pictures of the lads with the flags (Chalky White Is God anyone? and another with a Town badge on it). Mite recreate some scenes from the BBC's Southend drunk and dangerous program (joke). Mite try to post some pics on here if I can figure out how to do it.
Then head for the pubs near the ground for one last good old binge. Hopefully no one will get turned away for being pissed. If I do Il go straight to the home end. I dont give a fuck. Iv been waiting for something (anything) all season.

that pschyo in the town end started chanting 'jesus chrsit barmy army' anyway, it is getting more boring at football now, i use to love going away espically, still do when i can, but its just like anything else now. next season i don't think i'll be getting a season ticket purely because i will prob have to get a job!
