The tickets on the gate had got up to about 346 by half time, I was number 8 - and there were a lot more than 8 people when I got there (though they would mostly be those working at the club etc..).

Oh right, I got given 244 only several minutes before kickoff and wasn't sure that that many had come in after me, excellent away showing

heard the attendance was announced as 356, and confirmed by their Chairman 8-)

Must have been 300 Diamonds fans there

there were 10 more than that,all pissheads,oops sorry lads ,who were boasting they had got in free :lol: :lol: ,,,but the official total is good enough ;) ;)

Funny I was stood by the gate when they came in and paid (assuming we're talking about the same lads ;-) ). There were people coming in right up til half time and paying full price to come in. I didn't see after that.

no darren, these lads were in well before the game started :lol: :lol: one lad ran out of ciggys ;) so he phoned a mate ,who was outside, to buy him some,,,,the mate then chucked them over the fence as he didnt want to pay a fiver to get in :lol: :lol:

I don't want to hijack the thread and take it off in a different direction but that surely is the ultimate target on a drunken away trip, the holy grail of free entry!

I've just suddenly thought the UCL must be ripe picking for any drunken excursion!

Our record was four people getting into Woking through the turnstiles with only two paying and then one of the freebies being thrown out for an altercation with the Woking fans after we scored and then sneaking back in at half time for free again!
