It's only 7 weeks away, we need to start planning!
I've been reliably informed by Sam that train prices are pretty decent for this (If booked well in advance) 21 quid being the lowest he found.
Anyone found lower? I'll be getting my in the next week or two, once I've put some money back on the plastic.

I should wait for kick off time confirmation if I were you Herthab.

Get the 8.30 departure and we'll be there whatever. The last time we played them the kick off wasn't changed, was it? |

Was it? I went to the game but don't remember an early kick off. Total overkill by the police on the day, they outnumbered us! I felt a proper hoolie, being escorted back to the station with every single side road blocked. |

Yeah i know. That was good fun though. Gave a nice insight into wat its like without getting your head stoved in.
The highlight was obviously the 3/4 Pikey's running down the hill to goad the Swindon fans, then realising how many there were and subsequently being pummelled back up the hill by the old bill.
Was defo 12 o'clock. I remember as its not everyday i have 5 pints in a morning.

It wasn't a midday kick off was it? Although my memory of that day is a bit shabby, 6 cans by paddington, one on the tube and another on the train from victoria (which a 12 year old tried to buy for 50p) saw to that...

I'll be holding off buying my ticket until they confirm the k.o. time. It'll seem wrong if we have to kick off at 12pm on the opening day.

It was a total waste of money and resources last time - the police probably did outnumber us! I'm looking forward to this - hopefully it'll be a nice day in the sunshine again, eh axs?  |

Herthab is right.If we get an early enough train we should be ok even if they decide to change the ko. Plus it would mean i'd have an excuse to drink beer before 9am in the morning  |
