Blofield Canary 11 Posted May 4, 2009 Just been looking at some of our games for next season and we are in for a bit of a culture shock. Can''t believe just how small some of the grounds are and how few tickets we will get for a lot of games. Looks like there will be a lot of issues with tickets next year especially if by some miracle we are playing wellAway allocationsBrighton 900 uncovered seats Bristol Rovers 1100 terraceCarlisle 600 seats + 1100 open terraceColchester 1832Hartlepool 967Huddwesfield 4000Orient 1000Oldham 1600Scunthorpe 1678Southend 2000Stockport 1558Swindon 1200Tranmere 2500Walsall 2000Yeovil 1700 Brentford 600 + 1000 terraceExeter 300 + 1200 open terraceWycombe 2000 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[:)][/quote]I remember going to the last time we played at the New Den. It''s insane, there''s a seperate walkway from the station to the away fans area, have to prove you''re an away fan to get in. We lost 1-0 which was there first home win of the season. Made worse by the fact that Marvin Elliott the goal scorer was at primary school with my brother!In the home fixture I made some stupid remark at some Millwall fans who''d been sitting in a Norwich stand, our car got surrounded as they tried to get me and my dad into a fight.Not looking forward to those fixtures again!

Camuldonum 0 Posted May 4, 2009 On hold because of the recession. Colchester''s ground is a tiny bit more than quoted - 1900 - but it can be increased and was for the Leeds game. I think their allocation was closer to 3000. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gazzathegreat 0 Posted May 5, 2009 Open terrace, now there''s something to soothe on this most trying of days. Hope most of that is standing, be worth the trip. Huddersfield is a decent ground, remember going there, and losing soon after it had opened. Tranmere has always been one of my favourites due to a cracking chip shop nearby and friendly staff. Remember the foggy game anyone?Brighton, always tough to get a ticket for that one too. Walsall, another favourite, and a great fans club next to ground, again very friendly, unlike their near neighbours. Wycombe, god we have been to most of these places in the past really haven''t we, Swindon, worth a trip alone just for the roundabout system. What fun!! Oldham, coldest place on this earth.....remember a dire performance there many moons ago. Wycombe, fond memories, lovely ground. Oh it''s getting a bit nostalgic, might start enjoying it in a minute. Help!! Stockport, fine, good for shopping at the Trafford Centre..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not sure Oldham is any colder than the away stand at Blackpool but Carlisle can be a bit bracing especially on a winter Tuesday night. The most aggro we have had this season was a friendly at Chelmsford - there is something seriously wrong with some of them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gazzathegreat 0 Posted May 5, 2009 Cam - have been to Gillingham, an away match midweek, was one of Crouch and Hucks'' first games for us, great match and great goals, shame about the rickety terrace which shook everytime we moved.Aggro is right though, just got a sinking feeling when wandering around the town. Very strange place, like Stoke in the 70s. I have been to Blackpool, but believe for freezing temperatures, Oldham did it for me, if I don''t put in the old Bolton ground in a cup replay in the mid 90s, now that was COLD!! Aggro there too as we held an Chase Out demonstration and one old lady hit me with her handbag and called me a disgrace to the club. lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
