Couple of good results for us last night with Tranmere and Sutton both losing. Unfortunately, Exeter came back from 1-3 with 20 minutes to go but ended up winning 4-3.
Presume most on here are still targeting the POs
3,852 crowd, makes you wonder why they brought 1,100 to ours.

Is driving to Carlisle and back same day doable? Seriously thinking about it.
Done it a couple of times, long day, Think we left at 7am and got back around midnight. We are about forty miles south of Swindon so would probably be a bit less if you were travelling from Swindon.

Their home average is only 4,200ish this season so thats bang on pretty much give or take a few. Harrogate only took 37 fans there too.

Fucking shite train services. My first leg of the journey cross country from Banbury to Wolverhampton cancelled due to strike action. Same as the Barrow fiasco.
Plan B now Banbury to Moor Street Moor Street to New Street New Street to Wolverhampton Wolverhampton to Carlisle
What could possibly go wrong - Nice early start and late back home. Fingers crossed it’s still on. Don’t want to have to drive again.

Could you not drive to somewhere like Nuneaton or Rugby and bypass the whole Birmingham hassle? Sent from my SM-A125F

Can have a beer if I stay on the trains  Memorable journey a few years back. A few Swindon in our carriage and see a few of them now from that journey. Everyone was well plastered. Works party joined at Preston, what a crack we had with them, all ages, they were all pissed up and just one big laugh. The young girls were entertaining to say the least 😂

In discussion with a lad who knows their Groundsman and getting daily updates. Hope it’s on. Tonight high winds, tomorrow calmer, just that Friday storm and Saturday should be calmer. Can only hope.

Mate, I'd be less inclined to trust the trains this time of year. If I was coming from the same direction, I'd offer you lift. As it is, I'm sure you'll be there one way or another, as you always find a way.
