have just called the ticket office and they said they have plently left, i said so if i left it until before the S Wed game it would be ok and she said yes loads left they dont expect to sell out.
Sadly I think they are due a result against us, which would make victory that little bitter sweeter. It's a shame that we didn't sell out but the atmosphere will be decent regardless.
I'm quite surprised no nigels have poped up on the forum like last season.
Dont buy into that one Suzi, its £30, not £300, cant see why the club havent put them on general sale before Saturday, makes no sense. Our fans would rip the p155 out of the nigels if they brought 1,800 over to us
[cite]Posted By: WhenIwasLittleBoy[/cite]I have maintained for a long time that the away following is something that should be addressed by the club
what can the club do realistically, other than providing freebie travel ?
Our 'collective committment' to our club, simply isn't there like it is is some other clubs, there is no getting away from that. Whether its because we are more price sensitive / wiser to the world / have more things going on in our lives etc compared to fans of similar sized clubs, i don't know.
I just can't understand how nearly 6,000 can go to the lengths of taking days off work, travelling up to Middlesboro for a game that was live on the telly, yet not have the same appetite for a local derby.

my thoughts exactly afka. i dont think the club can do much. its up to us. we just dont have the number of 'hardcore' fans that other clubs our size have.

Goals from Bailey, Todorov and Varney
assists from (2)Varney and Ambrose
then I got to walk the gauntlet of the stripeys to get home cos they are nasty people. LOL
I prefer it if we dont sell out anyway, much better if people can stand together etc stops all the infighting.
Asked to check that with the manager, and said that was correct.
Hope they put something in the programme

We have sold 2,000 so far!! So if we have a good win on Sat and they do go on general sale you never know 3,000 could be a goer??
Stop Moaning Steve we are not playing at the moment :-)
it was just under 900
There are no excuses, predicted 1800 - 2200 at the start so should be bang on.
Prepare for a piss take from Nigel and Nigella.
sorry afka - i used the figure given by a fan of ours who went
Whats your proposal WIWLB?
