How many we sold for next Saturdays match? Long journey down in potentially freezing conditions with an uncovered stand doesn’t scream sell out to me but I live in hope.
They got a point away to Coventry today in a 1-1 draw. Let's hope we're on our game. We can't afford any slip ups against the teams in the bottom half of the table. We always seem to play better against teams around us so let's hope that continues.
Similar distance to Portsmouth in 3 weeks time (for which we've already sold 650+) but I reckon the open away end will put a lot off. I'm considering going as it'd be another one to tick off. Reckon we'll have 500-600 there, most will save their energy/money for Pompey
Il be down London ways so hoping to get down but might have to leave it until the day and see if there’s any away tickets on gate
Away fans are normally accommodated in the Brian Moore stand which is a temporary structure and is totally uncovered. In 2004, the Priestfield Stadium was voted the worst football ground in the UK in an extensive poll in The Observer. The capacity was reduced by 20,000 and now accommodates circa 11,000 plus supporters including those supporting the away team. They have secured planning permission to build a new ground but I don't know when construction will start.
I know, I've been, but this time they're giving us a few hundred covered for families and disabled. Gordon road stand which is the low roofed stand to right as you look from away end.
Every time I've been I got cold and one time wet through. Good that you're going to be under cover FT. Hope the weather doesnt dampen the spirits of our fans in the Brian Moore Stand.!
Yeah, only been once. I think it was Johnsons first game? Anyway, won 1-0 George Waring scored. It was cold wet and windy that day, and I was thankful for my big coat, although my jeans still got wet. It's a grim place. Only reason I'm under cover is my mate is visually impaired and was offered seats in that stand.
