i can only think of the ipswich play-off and none since (and before that the preston promotion and bristol city stave off relegation matches talked about on here last week)...any others ?

If they're anything to go by, it might be lucky then!

Tranmere at Upton Park when they beat us before the last game at Bristol Rovers.

Defore the Tranmere game Southend mentions there was Wimbledon in the mid 80's - at Selhurst PArk - the year we both went up, and Derby a couple of years later - won 3-0 (I think!)

a match at upton park hardly counts as a home game in decimal money...

ditto matches at sellout...

I would probably say that the home game against Blackburn at the back end of last season was as good as a night game. Okay it wouldn't count as a proper night game given the match in question kicked off at 17.15 and ended in daylight. But the first coach back to Sheffield I could book for the game was the 23.30 departure from Victoria - the one I normally book for proper night games. But probably a few more will agree that 17.15 is a piss-poor time to start a football match.
