1300 to Dorking but only 800 to Swindon doesn’t sound logical.
In a way it does. Look how far away from Dorking Aldershot is and how easy it is to get there. Plus there is the winnable game scenario and add in their average home gate figures I posted the other day. I’d expect them to fill Arkells away section. Adding a feasible number of extra bums on seats to make the SB a viable option is another matter. On what could possibly be a fucking cold and wet day in SN1 I’d think twice if I was a shots supporter and a SB ticket was the only option available. Still we shall see. |

Can’t imagine Dorking had a covered area for 1300 though.
It’s a one-off game for them, get yer arses to SN1.

Aldershot to Dorking...20 miles. Aldershot to Swindon...60 miles. |

From the station at Colchester
To the cells of Warrington
From the services at Leicester
To the slums of Northampton
We travel over England
And one day Europe too
Cos we all follow the Swindon
We're the famous Town End crew.

If it wasn’t only a tenner I don’t think I’d be bothering after yesterday.

Last night without doubt the worst I have felt all season after a result.
Will be at the CG Saturday with my youngest lad hoping for a second round draw.

I think the same disappointment at losing was there, but there was the added dimension that the tempo, energy and quality wasn't there - Apart for a 5-10 minute spell after we equalised. I thought it was like watching Scott Lindsey's Swindon team play. |

Shuts down any conversations regarding opening the Bank for the match. Still a good effort from them TBF. I really hope there are no hostilities from either sets of supporters. A good natured game played in the true spirit of the FA. Cup.
