Away supporters party after Gillingham.

[Chris. 0]

I recieved a letter Saturday from Norwich which was an Invite to an away supporters party with the players and coaches. Did anyone else recieve one ?

[e10_yellow 0]

Yeah, I got one. Not bothered about going though.

[Graham Humphrey 13]

Yep I got one and will be going.

Only people who have been to so many away games each season get one of these. (can''t remember what the number is) I''ve been in previous years it''s quite a nice thing to do for regular away fans, usually get served pie and mash and all the players and staff who are available come in for some of the evening.

This will be my first time attending. I have''nt done too bad this season. Only failed to miss Wycombe and Yeovil !

[Graham Humphrey 13]

If you failed to miss them then surely you attended them...? [;)]

OOPS, good eye Humphrey.

I hear they charge you £5 to attend this, would have thought it would be free to away season ticket holders after all the money they''ve spent going to all these games?

[adycanary 0]

I received a letter, you do have to pay £5 but you can redeem this against drinks at the bar,

The £5 is deducted when you buy drinks from the bar. I assume the reason they ask for payment is to ensure the fans who say they are coming actually turn up. Otherwise they could end up doing a load of grub that gets wasted. I have been in previous years but am not going this time because I have to get back to call the bingo[;)] What I found interesting is that the invitation was from McNally this year. It''s usually from Delia but I expect the change was to stop people moaning about it[:O]

How many away games do you need, I went to about 17 last year and didn''t get an invite.

It''s a giant carp, in case anyone was wondering.

[Captain Holt 520]

Anyone willing to sell me their invite?

[Tim Allman 1]

Yes  - we recieved a letter, and are going. So if you see someone looking like me in my avatar (no.. not the one in the yellow suit...), come up and say hello. I''ll be with my starstruck eleven year old daughter, desparately trying not to behave like a starstruck Dad.

 

[Hooleyfan 0]

Me and Miss Hools will be there. Just look out for the trainers and err...my name on my back.

A couple of questions for this... the Top of the Terrace is in the Barclay isn''t it?  Never been there before so not 100% sure on this.  And is there any sort of dress code for this - is it some sort of posh/corporate area or is it just wear whatever the hell you like?

Acceptable Away Attire....

I''ve been to 16 this season, and didn''t get a letter, most of them though were bought in a block of 5, where my customer number wouldn''t have been used though.

You''re unlucky then as I know someone who''s had an invite who''s only been to about 7 away games.

[spencer 1970 207]

...must be a new thing. I was an away season ticket holder for 2 seasons and didnt get jack sh*t!? Along with the 250 miles to the home games and home season ticket it cost me bundles...and the 8 points and the barrister charge to get me off a ban too...And then there was the beers...& think i ate something at half time once too. I''m sure they didnt invite me as i would have probably shoved the letter right ***** if they''d have asked me for a 5''er on top!

[/quote]Ahh right, the only ones my customer number would have been put down, would have been the ones you had to apply for so Charlton, Colchester and Brighton. Of course if there''s 5 of you buying tickets only 1 hands in the customer number. Thought you would have to go to more than 7 to get a invite though

[Matt Juler 148]

I was invited, but unable to attend this season as need to get back to London.  Not sure how many away tickets I''ve bought personally, probably about 10.

There is no dress code as far as I know, I went to the exiles party last year and everyone went as they were for the match.

So no, there''s no dress code as such so straight there after the match, via the pub, is fine.Fortunately I missed last years function - probably just as well bearing in mind how the season panned out - and understandably they''ve been decidedly low key for several years now. Probably the best one I went to was the 2002 Play-Off Final year ( A certain member of the Board - not Delia - was so p*ssed they could hardly stand up )Delia and MWJ are in attendance most of the evening and will happily pose for a snap or sign something. A good wheeze is to bring in one of Delia''s cookbooks - if you can be bothered lugging it around - although they''re always surrounded by chatting supporters so you''ll need to be bold if you want  a piccie for the album. The players are expected to put in a shift too although most of them disappear as soon as they can to escape the attentions of swarms of kids and people like me.Enjoy....
