What would you lads do without out the Club's travel consultant?

We would be in a right kerfuffle.

I'm never really a terrace supporter but was standing last night and have to say despite the awful weather and shocking view(couldn't see the ball go in at all for Tommo's goal) I had a great time, super atmosphere, loved mocking the moronic K*ttering kids to our right and it was great going crazy to our goals, so I may have to stand more often at games

The evening was well worth the 320 mile round trip.

Three goals.
Total dominance.
Laughable home support.
Great atmosphere amongst our fans.
Real appreciation shown by players.

At least this time I came prepared, unlike at Brighton, where i got drenched and had a bad cold for the next 10 days!

My next visit is 24th April, and i have May 16th kept clear in my diary.

I couldn't see Tommos goal very easy either, had a bloke up the front with his brolly up!! Wish I'd moved further along now.

Likewise. Had to have me pal commentate for me every time the ball ended up in the box! :x

Being reasonably tall, I saw Tommo's run, him decide to stay up when Wrack fouled him and then I saw the ball up till just after it passed Abbey and I went mental.

I didn't really see the first 2 go in, it was actually quite hard to see the ball when my glasses were dripping with rain. As for the 3rd well when Tomlin skipped past Wrack and stayed on his feet I knew he was going to put it away, no problem.
