Sam Brown just 13 appearances away from 100 already; that's a great effort.

Its good going that we've only lost 16 games

Strictly speaking only lost 15 over 90 minutes.

There's a review of the 100 games, along with 100 pictures on the OWS - http://www.afcdiamonds.com/diamonds-rea ... -milestone

great reading that is Tony.

Just had a count up, I reckon i've been to 94 of those 100 games. Can anybody beat that?

The ones i've missed:

Nov 2012: AFC R&D 3-2 Harrowby
Feb 2013: AFC R&D 5-0 Wooton Blue Cross
Nov 2013: Wulfrunians 2-4 AFC R&D
Dec 2013: Boston Tn 2-1 AFC R&D
April 2014: AFC R&D 1-2 Spalding
August 2014: Harborough 1-2 AFC R&D

The Harrowby, Wulfrunians and Spalding games I couldn't have attended if i'd have wanted to, so i've missed 3 by choice.

Yes I can do one better.
1st Sept 2012 Harrowby 0-3 AFC R&D
29th Sept 2012 AFC R&D 1-3 Wellingborough Whitworth
7th Sept 2013 AFC Dunstable 1-1 AFC R&D
21st Sept 2013 AFC R&D 5-1 Hoddesdon
14th Dec 2013 Spending 1-2 AFC R&D
I couldn`t do any of above so by choice i`ve missed 0
The is a pattern. Early Sept away with Mrs B, (got out of it this year so will be at Harrowby), Late Sept Boys golf tour abroad & Sam would need to be making his Everton debut for me to consider missing that.
Mid Dec Mrs B`s Birthday away day, so I will not be at Yaxley 20th Sept or Harrowby at home 13th Dec

I counted up and I think I've done 47. My favourite goals in order; Sam's vs Eynesbury, Deakin @ Sileby and Alfie's @ Dover.

I'd bet on Hedges doing all 100.

I've missed

Wotton
Harrowby
Eynesbury
Oadby in the league away first season

Wellingborough and Whitworths in the Cups

Dover
Wulfranians away second season, saw all league games home and away.

Not missed a game this season
