  1. [quote user="BroadstairsR"][quote user="Dave"]Well any damage in the away end has to be paid for by the away team.

    So all he''s doing is taking money from their limited budget.[/quote]Really? Didn''t know that. A pity the damage was limited then as we might have been able to bankrupt them. It wouldn''t take much. [/quote]

    Yes it''s true, When AfC Wimbledon 1st played at MK Dons they caused £20000 of damage and the club had to foot the bill

    When i lived in Milton Keynes, i often drove to stanmore and got the tube into London. Wembleys on the same line and take about 10-15 mins max to get to wembley.

    There is a large carpark there which has cheap rates on sundays and bank holidays, but if full there is on street pay and dispaly parking too. It is a bit further round than other stations but in the long run you will probably save time on train changes.

    You''ll also save time on the way out as well. They queue at Wembley Park going out of the city will be a lot shorter than city-bound.

    This is what I''m planing to do. Just not sure how quick the car park will fill up.

  4. Norwich v Ipswich games and the other way round always seem to be excessively policed. Yes ok its a Derby but there are many others in the country, fair enough a few extra police are needed, but i think that they go to excess in East Anglian Derbies.

    They also want if possible an early kick off on Derby day, you dont seem to see that being requested in many others.

    99.9% of Norwich and Ipswich fans are friendly and will happily get along with each other, and would happily mingle in the street possibly giving each other a bit of friendly banter. Yes there are the odd exceptions but you get that at any game.


  5. Every year the club put up a message on the last game about pitch invasions and the concequences

    All I can say is what harm does it do most clubs allow it on the last game - yes I know we were playing Ipswich this time and it could intimidate the fans but let''s be fair that would have already happened in the stands and TBH 99.9% of their fans are passionate but not violent.

    As showed yesterday it did no harm whstsoever, if the club went ahead with their banning threat the season ticket waiting list will now be empty!

  6. playoffs are one of the few 2 legged tournaments that away goals do not apply and this is the reason why (quoted from wiki)

    "Before the 1999–2000 season away goals were used as a tie-breaker after extra time had been played, however, this was abolished following a club initiative launched by then-Ipswich Town chairman David Sheepshanks, after his club had twice lost on away goals in 1997 and 1999. Since then away goals have played no part in the play-off system."
