Post by: sir windon on Monday, August 9, 2021, 12:20:07
Haven’t found much information. Live outside Swindon. Any ideas on details? Also, pre match drinking?

I wonder why you can only buy away tickets in just 1 section. (J2 - unreserved) If that is the only place you can buy tickets then we have snapped up 108 so far. Surprised they haven't dropped the prices for a league cup game to try and encourage a larger fanbase.

Does anyone have any recommendations of where to park?
Caught the train last time, but hear parking a nightmare around the ground.

haha. To be fair under Power we have been doing the same. I think Cambridge are also charging us more than their fans are paying which is something I don't really like and I know we've been guilty of also doing in the past.

Yes mate... staying in Lincoln until tomorrow (throught that was a better option than sunny Scunny 🤣)so taking in the Cambridge game on the way home... perfect 👍😉

Going to venture down to SN1 on Saturday... can't remember the last time I went to the first 3 games of the season... probably the PL season...

I called the Cambridge ticket office & was told they weren't selling away tickets & to pay on the day?

Parking wise, I've spoken to people who have visited recently & I'm going for the Park & Ride on Newmarket Road, about 20mins walk straight up from there.

Found this page for buying tickets in advance. 2 quid cheaper if you get them online before 19.15 tomorrow.

Yep, not available for overseas either - ESPN have the rights to the cup in the USA and are only showing the games Sky are broadcasting I think, maybe one extra one.

I not there are two other games blanked out for the USA region, so assume we have a couple of live games on Sky (which is when league games are not on iFollow for here).

edit: ignore that last bit, it's the silly cup games

Does anyone know if BBC Wilts match coverage is available on the BBC app?

There used to be some sort of rights issue with digital broadcast of football on the wireless, not sure if that has changed or not.

If it hasn't changed it ruddy well ought to.

BBC have online rights for the FA Cup but everything else on DAB/FM radio so need to be in BBC Wilts catchment area. Bit of anomaly really but that must change in the near future.

Mind you for us in the FA Cup the pre match build up lasts longer than our participation.
