Norwich tickets

Birmingham have been bloody awful second half.

Never seen a team give less of a shit. Magomah(?) King of the negative pass.

Pot shots from CBs

Awful.

 

[BigBed]

I think it could work but you know what folk are like for dropping out

It may also attract people, it's never good getting the train down on your lonesome.

 

[moDtheGod]

I shall be there despite the prohibitive costs. I fully expect this to be our toughest test of the season so far, they have been terrific going forward this campaign and made light work of Brum tonight. Should have been 4 or 5 at half time. They eased off in the 2nd.

If we win, we are going up auto and I won't entertain arguments to the contrary.

Birminghams defending was shoddy, we wont give them that many chances. They were up to their old tricks as well, diving about.

 

[Camden Blade]

'Not available' online now so must be just about sold out.

 

[The Menace]

It will sell out. Not sure what Wilders expectancies have to do with anything mind.

300 left, hope you’re right, surprising if not. Wilder’s a fan like us so he’ll want a sell out and a repeat of last season at end of game.

 

[grafikhaus]

Surely it would be cheaper to hire a coach for the day, with pick up/drop off at the Lane???

After the usual 'Can you drop me off at Hackenthorpe/Westfield/Stocksbridge/Treeton?' Actually get back to the Lane about dawn.

 

[BladeTillIDie]

£35 a ticket
Still in 'skint January'
3 days left to buy
Over 300 miles round trip
Played away last week

Brilliant support.

Hence, pick up n drop off at the Lane.

Have you ever been on an away coach?

Obviously, and it picks us up from the boozer, and drops us back at the boozer, and it's collectively cheaper than everyone paying single return fares, and there's less fucking about, especially when it's cold n wet!

I was with you until the 'less fucking about' bit. I went on the coach in 2009 to the Burnley PO Final game. Never again. I got sat next to the most unpunctual twat ever born. Mick Rooker had said the coaches would leave BTBL at '7 O'Clock sharp.' At 7.15, this cunt rolled up (why we just didn't set off and leave this twat, I don't know) and by the time we'd got to Tibshelf services, some morons wanted to stop for a piss (you could probably piss from the Lane to Tibshelf). We got to Wembley ridiculously early (the satdium wasn't even open), after the game, a gap opened up in the vast car park and we could have got a flyer - except said twat was the only one we were waiting for.
Approaching Sheffield we got the chorus of 'Can you drop me off at...?' The driver should have said 'Fuck off. You should have arranged a lift, get a taxi etc.' but he didn't, hence the scenic tour of every shithole estate in Sheffield and environs.

Nowt wrong with coaches - it's some of the twats who use them. For the play-off final this May it'll be:

1. Train or...
2. Crawl to London on my belly or...
3. Coach

Cardiff POF with The Sheldon was worse than that.

Great story! Though unfortunate for you.

At least if we get there again it’ll be in London and you’d have to be mad to get a coach here.

I can understand your pain, but, as with the coach from the local, most if not all know each other, so there's a good bit of banter and a designated point of pick up/drop off, unless as the bus returns to the pub, it drops on the road in, just to make people's stagger home a little less of a job!
I remember the Burnley game well, could've sworn Kenny was off his tits that game!!
I actually was at my ex's brothers wedding the day before, I had a few beers and then sculked off to bed in our posh country house hotel room, with my alarm set for 6am.
I remember said ex, entering the room at just before 2am, I a very amorous mood, she got told to fuck off after a quick sprint, as I was up early! Priorities!!
I remember throwing my bag into the car and heading straight to The Crown as quickly as I legally could...., arrived to a nice breakfast cob and a pint, followed by another pint, and another, after the 5th, the singing started and the coach arrived, we boarded, with a good bit of banter, and a few more liquid refreshments supplied by the landlord.
A swift stop at Watford gap, which brought us into contact with a minibus of Burnley fans, one very pissed, very gobby ginger kid sticks out, they decided to play Billy Big bollocks, shouting and swearing at families outside wearing united shirts/scarves/hats etc, and then started on a group of younger lads and chased them around the back of the services, kicking off n chucking cans.
Obviously they were completely brain dead, as there must've been 8 or 10 Blades coaches parked up there, unfortunately for them.
I remember getting to Wembley and straight into that pub come nightclub thing outside the back of Wembley at the entrance to the car park, and the coach parking at the front of a row, so we were one of the first coaches out.
The majority of us were sat in club Wembley, which is where we always sit, and therefore were all together as we left, the 7 that weren't, were already on the bus so we were straight out n home, got back about 10ish n had one for the road in the boozer.
Apart from the score, not the worst away day ever.

Good effort by anyone that's done both Swansea the other day and doing Norwich this weekend, with the prices for both, the distances involved and the travel disruption it's a hell of an effort

Well at least the trip to Swansea was eased with a session in Cardiff at lunchtime where the beer was only £2 a pint. Brains as well, very nice.
I think the beer will be a touch more expensive on Saturday though.

I'll be there. My girlfriend's from Norwich and her parents and brother-in-law are all related to one another.

Fixed that for you
