There has been times in the past few seasons when the players have said that the away support has made a difference.

At Cambridge last season Josh Gowing won the toss and turned the sides around before kick off as he “wanted our supporters behind the team in the 2nd half” rather than kicking towards us.

On the other side of the coin, we've lost to a few teams at home that couldn't even muster double figures so maybe it does,maybe it doesn't.

No it isn’t. The inflatable invasion wasn’t after mistreatment at Barnet. The mariachi band wasn’t in response to mistreatment,  is was in response to a ban on inflatables.
But hey Kris don’t let that stop you having a dig at our own fans yet again !!

I would be very very surprised (and disappointed) if there isn’t a vast reduction of our fans at Stevenage next season.


Regardless of who the protest is against, did we or did we not fill an away end and have a club turn a profit? Did we do a single thing against Forrest Green? no.

Maybe we can fill up our next away game and wave bras around so Plymouth can make some money. That'll show Stevenage and the EFL we mean business.

Quoted from Vance Warner
Realistically how many town fans are going to travel hundreds of miles to watch two teams they've never heard of? The fixture might not be for another 18 months anyway by which time it will have lost any momentum. The time to act is here and now before it is allowed to be brushed under the carpet


Right I am refusing to go to Stevenage today.

filling their away end the next time and giving them a profit.

Sorry Kris, I clearly misunderstood the sentence above as posted by you.  Like a numpty I thought you were inferring that the next time we filled THEIR away end giving THEM a profit.
How the hell did I get so wrong ???



The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'

Simple solution - 1,000 Town fans all wearing bras outside their coats and shirts. [/b]No one spends a penny in the ground.[b]


What if I need to pee, LOOKOUT who's that watching.

Sell out our ticket allocation, go mob handed to the turnstiles before kick off, force all of their stewards to strip to their underwear, go in support our team, (Town win 4-0 by the way), at the end of the game fully superglue a bra to every seat so the cost of replacing the seats equals the away gate receipts, go home happy with the three points..

We could sell their ground as the original Wembley to some rich gullible American, and get it moved brick by brick the week before our fixture next season.

Or just not go, whichever is easier.
