Title: Miles this year

Match                   Miles   
Barnsley                   179.6   179.6
Blackpool                    201.3   201.3
Tranmere                   169.9   169.9
Walsall                    86.6   86.6
Franchise                    68.1   68.1
Huddersfield             195.1   195.1
Doncaster   172   172
Brentford                    74.4   74.4
                    1147   2294

Can you tell I cant sleep? Ive travelled 2,300 miles at 20p a mile is a hell of a lot of money.Seen us score 2 goals from memory (mk and huddersfield) which means £200 a goal or 1,150 miles.  The penny has just dropped that this club is taking over my life what the fuck am I doing?

I can see this club getting out of the trouble we are in.  Iffy has us playing for each other and at last we look commited to the cause.

That is all, what a fucking idiot

i've done the same except i missed blackpool as well. drove myself to Franchise and went with the old man to brentford and walsall.

overall, it's been pretty cheap thanks to my expert navigational skills

hoping to make every game until the end of the season now but i'm beginning to feel like a break, all this travelling is taking it's toll on me. looking forward to rotherham though, if it's anything like donny it'll be fucking ace.

agreed that we'll get out of this position, there's no reason we can't stay up.

I feel the same sonic, wanted to go to end of season, massive regret not going to bourno and villa instead.  May try and do them all, work and finances permitting also my college course  :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:

Know waht you say about taking its toll, I look like im 30 now, need a good sleep

Shit dude - get a more efficient car!

Ford Focus 1.8  - I drive most places at about 95 mph and get 11/12p a mile.
If I take it easy I can push 10p a mile.

According to my petrol log (for claiming business miles) I did 391.7 miles between my last fill-ups and the tank refill cost £41.09.
That's 10.49p per mile.

Considering I did 15,000 miles last year - that's £1650 in petrol
In your car I'd be spending £3000 in petrol

Havent missed a game a league game this season yet.

Obviously the home matches are no bother for me, but I've done all the away ones.

Its cost shit loads, we havent won in ages we very rarely score goals but I cant imagine it any other way.....this club is taking over all of our lives, but I say make the most of it while we still can

Being Old - an excuse

4. Have seen it ALL before!  :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:

Post by: Asher on Monday, October 31, 2005, 13:47:59
why do you need to pull fit ladies to go to footy, go to footy with the lads in a way you will have a better day


Title: Miles this year
Post by: DiV on Monday, October 31, 2005, 13:49:07
1. Cant handle drink nemore
Dont have to drink at football

2. No money cos of all those presciption fees
Youth is a student and earns £0 he still goes

3. Cant drive as well as I used to  :-))(  hence need more lifts !  :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:
Train, Supporters coach etc

4. Have seen it ALL before!  :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:

5. Cant pull the fit birds nemore  :cry:

maybe but then people like me would have to go on their own!  Need to get a few more women travelling away.

oops didnt mean that in a harsh way lady, good to have you at an away game, I meant the whole travel etc in a car packed with lads having a few beers, having a laugh etc can be a great day.

Best weekends Ive had this year were blackpool away and hartlepool last year.  Great weekends both times that whats I mean

Mine's too complicated to work out, as I can't remember where I travelled from for half of them, but to be honest I wouldn't like to know!  I've done too many for a student, that's for sure!  Still debating on Hartlepool or not....   8)

Hartlepool is a mission and a half.

Sonic wants to split the driving with me.

Does that mean i drive his clio or he drives mine?  :?
