not getting at you les , can think of no one more loyal, but wil be expecting mr viv to be down in woking and ginny+ johnny boy et al


To be fair to Mr Viv, he does go to quite a few away games. The day of the Braintree match was the actual day of my last op which is quite apt really. I reckon what I went through was probably a lot painless that if I'd been at the game.

If it's only a handful think how chuffed they'll feel when the whole of BP clap them.

what difference does it make if there are 2 or 2000 we have sunk to a level were away support is not usual, that is no-ones fault but ours. the few that come from places like H & Y should be applauded and made as welcome as some of these clubs have made us, l


There will be 18   and we will give them 2,000 seats to choosr from,

How much more respect can we give than that, ?

I too went to Braintree,

Also went to Cambridge, Histon and Kettering last season,

Isn't the bit of the Osmond near the main stand still not in use?
Or away fans just don't seem to like to sit in that bit!

Yet you mentioned some of us by name.I was merely answering the original question,not mocking their support as anyone who follows a lower league team has my respect and i actually think that clapping small away support is quite patronising.

You're right about one thing though.I currently don't go to away games but i have been to many hundreds in the past.Got fed up with being herded around like so much cattle and the final straw was being crushed against a wall by a police horse and my brother dragged along by his hair from the same mounted copper.Our crime was being in the vicinity of a bit of a shouting match between rival fans that we had no part of and were going in the opposite direction.

I know it is different in this league but i just got out of the habit of going and recent performances haven't inspired me to start going again yet.I did book a weekend in York last season but the game was called off.Will probably go to York and Lincoln this season as the current Ms Ginny lives a 5 min walk from Sincil Bank.
