I expect A few more will go along because of the rivalry!
How many do you think?

I think it will be a good game. Important that we get behind the boys for this one!

This is the away end. No roof  :shock:

Its all a bit one sided though isn't it? I just see it as another game in which we need to get another result in.No doubt some fools will be going along because of the prospect of trouble though i.e Sonic and DV, the hooligans :wink:

I'd have thought anything between 4-500....

i think we'll take a fair few. most people i know are going so that's a start.

i'm so up for this, especially after no footy yesterday.

I was thinking of sitting on the roof of that blue building, may be a bit safer.

 :nod:

Its DMR you want to watch out for  8)

:soapy tit wank:

should be a giggle, i cant wait. i hate having to wait ages for the bloody football...

At least ten of us on the train - be right laugh!

for some unexplainable reason, I'm really dreading this match

i reckon around 800 will travel to the game

We have 17 going  and it would seem 10 people are going on the train.

so 27.

I'm not standing at the back. Looks well dodgy.

I really want to go but can't make it unfortunately...I think we'll take a few.

don't forget me and my posse. should be about 5  8)   thats 32 so far...

Can't see us filling the 1500, I'll say similar to MKD this season.... 700-900

Im bringing my Pictionary game along for those that are going by Train.  :)

:clap:

And i might even bring Connect4 aswell.  :wink:

I was just about to ask if you had that too!

Drunken twister on a train would be funny too!

You're going to trust 10 pissed up lads to play Twister with you?

:nuts:

When the Seagulls follow the Trawler, its because they think Sardines will be thrown in to the Sea.

When Spuddy makes a silly post, DMR calls him a cunt.

I think there will be a decent number. Maybe 800.
Don't know why but we have games where we take an unusually large number like at MK.

At the moment my next game is Gills at home depending on the Walsall match :-))(

 :mrgreen:

i'm bringing beer...and maybe a jacket...maybe a beer jacket.   :D

that is all

How much Beer is everybody taking on the Train?.

none cos i've got to drive home.

and i'm a lightweight

Sorry but travelling on the Train to Footy without drinking is forbidden.

how fucking else am i going to get there? walk? take the supporters sunshine bus?

Ok ill let you off, only because you uploaded them albums for me.

fuck off you cunt

Charming  :roll:

errr that was supposed to be a  :wink:

what train you getting old boy?

Errrrrm not sure?. I was hoping someone else would sort that out.  :mrgreen:

think we're on the 8:35 as it goes via reading so we can meet up with whits.

presume it's you, leggett, lady, dave, stfcfan and me getting on at swindon, picking up birdy and village at didcot then whits at reading.

though i'm not 100% sure on that so don't hold me to it.

Sounds good to me.

considering i'll most probably be on the beer the night before, thats fucking early. never mind! have we defo got those 4-person saver things booked yea?

Well me and my mates are going, plus my dad and sister so that's 5 of us going. There should be alot of us because us not having footie last saturday.

fucking hell do I really have to get up that early on a saturday?  :(

Haha... yes. If i can do it, you can.

but that is earlier than I have to get up to look after my horses  :shock:

you can more than likely add another two to your list, if you're still keeping count....

i'll be there. bet your all well chuffed.

Will get to Gills just after 12 on that train so can't get any later I'm afraid. And Yes - have the 4 ticket saver.

Probably a pack of 24. Can't go thirsty!

Not sure if DMR's going yet? Otherwise I'm paying full wack!  :x

It was a late application in all fairness! Like I said two more and another 4 cheap tickets.

I know. Grrr  :x   :beers:

sweet feet, i wasnt complaining!!!

Have we got the cheaper Train ticket?. :?

4 hour journey = 12 pack minimum i would say... :beers:

Yes I'm going on the train... I owe Lady whatever that is...

4 hours  :shock:

That'll do me, i might take a "Cooler Bag" 8)

I'm only bringing 8 tins for the way down

I'm driving home mind  :?

Football specials in the late 70's / early 80's were considered the lowest proirity on the rail network. They used to wait in sidings, whilst coal trains overtook them! As a result train journeys were stretched to unbelievable amounts of time, as much as 7/8 hours each way. No catering, no heating, toilets over flowing with piss and shit. No wonder fans used to get a bit bored and smash the fuckers to smitherenes!

 :mrgreen:  Whoops!

What time is everyone getting there?  Where's a good pre-match watering hole?  I'm well up for this one.

Are you not getting the train back then?!?

Yeah, but driving from Swindon to 'Vize

add us 4 to the total so far - by the way, isn't that an old photo? I thought they'd completed the new stand now, so no need for that temporary job in the photo at the top of the the thread?

I could be wrong but I believe the new stand is called the Brian Moore stand and is now open & unusually house the away supporters, with home supporters also being in the same end, unless their is a big away following.

Fuck knows how all that works but who gives a sht as long as its got a roof over it.

Having said all that I cannot find anything to back that up, that was their plan, but nothing to suggest they've actually achieved it, so we could be in a completely open end that is difficult to generate any noise in.

YES  :beers:

don't forget the london connection I'll be on the train as well but only from victoira onwards so that 35 at least!  :beers:

After being quoted 6 hrs to do the journey on sat, i'll be making my way to kent on friday then I'll bring 2 mates from sittingbourne with me, one of whom could be an unlucky charm (she's only been to walsall and barnsley).  That's 38

I don't know if I'm going to gills now  :cry:

I have my cousins 18th party saturday night which starts at 8, so I doubt we would make it back in time.

I'll be bringing two mates from canterbury.

Who's driving?  A 105 yr old?  I always get back in time to Crawley with time to spare, and Gillingham is only a little further...!  Could be done easy!

I'm supposed to have a job interview on Saturday. But I'll be pissed on a train  8)

i respect your moves, Mr Russell.

The moves will be in full flow after a few tins  :?

My dads driving the old escort  :D  Baring in mind we have to get back and get ready and everything. I may have to beg him when he gets in from work. I REALLY want to go to this game  :(  I might tell him don rogers will be there or something.

 :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick: thats ace.

i reckon 1000 will be there  8)

Good lad!  I have new found respect for you Davey!  I wish I could get pissed for this one, but didn't wanna be on a train by myself drinking special brew!  I will get cunted for a game one of these days...!

 What's so different about a train to the usual park bench?

Is there a recommended 'away' pub or is just a pot luck thing??

Is there such thing as an ''away' pub in a place where they consider the game a rivalry?

Look at Spuddy's post, about halfway down the page....

http://thetownend.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?t=8738&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=45

Sweet...

I reckon about 950.

Is that the one were staggering to?.

I'd imagine so, especially if they lay on free snacks.....

What like Nails disguised as Sausage Rolls.  :shock:

Ha, nails reminds me of that pub near Vale Park!!!! What a shocker!
