Got chatting to a young lad in the Britton after the game yesterday and apparently he goes to all of our games home and away ...from chester where he is from.

Asked him why he supports us and he said that after getting disillusioned with the lack of banter at Chester he decided to pick a new team and went home watched motd and saw el- kakouri score a free kick and has been supporting us ever since.

I thought id done well getting there after a 2.5 hr drive that it took from beckenham but hats of to him.

    Wrong way round the M25? The Northwich match is practically home for the Chester lad; I hope he gets a ticket and with his away record he should.

    Traffic made 15 minute drive to my dads in orpington take over half hr and then traffic all the way up to the bluewater turn off (seriously do people not have better things to do) from there meant it was another two until we got there.

    Would like to say it was worth it.

    Should've let the train take the strain. 30 mins from Bromley South.

    Aren't there a load of Dutch fans that come over for home games? I remember there was a thread about it last season.

    What happened to your car, or shouldn’t we ask how many pieces you found when you got out of the ground?

    We obviously have Porkpie too... the Manchester Addick who was also at the Britton and game yesterday. Dedication is when he came down for the Gillingham friendly a few years ago... and a friendly down in Plymouth!
