Title: Franchise Away
Post by: Langers on Thursday, April 4, 2013, 13:05:50
As much as I don't want to be giving them any money, I still want to go and support my team. Plus, tickets are only £1 so how can I say no  :)

Many others going? 365 sold as of yesterday morning.

Noticed today that Franchise are hoping to get a game in the forthcoming egg chasing WC. The stadium will be increased to 32,000 capacity in preparation for next season.

It really pains me to say it but the stadium there is decent (well will be if it does get finished). You can also see the game from the concourses which will suit the rugger i would have thought. Still hate everything the bloody football club stands for though.

The seats are too comfortable.

If I want to watch a game in comfort I'll do it from my sofa, I don't want comfort at a football ground

Very very good point. Another plus for the egg chasing then. Perhaps Wankleman should just stick to that.

Just u-18s tickets as far as I can see from their website. http://www.Franchise.com/tickets/forthcoming_games/ (http://www.Franchise.com/tickets/forthcoming_games/)

Not sure if that covers the away section either, seems to be only certain areas of the ground.

U18 tickets and they reduced the prices as it was moved to a Tuesday. Reduced prices are for away fans too.

Is there anywhere to park apart from at the ground? Don't fancy paying £7.

474 sold, not too bad considering it's a Tuesday and it's a horrible place to go.

We have parked for free in nearby industrial estates when we went, 10 mins walk max.

 Unfortunately if the Franchise win this one, then it brings them right back into the Po mix at our expense.

Sounds good, cheers.

Will be a tough game, they seem to play better against the top sides.

JUST TO CONFIRM

Just confirmed by Franchise official Twitter site that any U-18 supporters from Swindon can gain access to tomorrow's game for just £1 - tickets are available on the day of the game. There is a cash booth at the away end. Proof of age is required. :clap:

To be fair we're only playing Franchise tonight because QPR are shit and got stuffed by them in the FA Cup

I'd have to disagree, as seasons go for away days last season was one of the best. I'd rather be going to somewhere with a bit of character  and a pub nearby than a shit bowl like Mk's or Doncaster.

Fair comment re character and the pubs, although trips to Rotherham, Northampton and the Scum weren't any better last year.
