That was definitely to most toxic atmosphere I have experienced at any Town away game in all my years following the Mariners. Was even worse than Burton atmosphere wise.


I was in the side stand which was better.

Looking at the National League table I am hoping for a Sutton/Torquay double for promotion. Some long away days next year.

Not me for obvious reasons.

New southern trips looking forward to are Weymouth (love Dorset) and Maidenhead (not too far). Not enthralled by Weadlstone (though it might turn out to be one of those odd days like Hayes & Yeading). Kings Lynn might be alright too if combined with the Narfuk coast.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

Do you mean a ‘lessor’ man 😉.


I suspect that he meant 'lesser'

The atmosphere at Halifax was ludicrous. I couldn’t believe the idiots that joined in the Hurst bashing. Was embarrassing and I was embarrassed for them. Proof that plenty of people are unable to read between the lines or critically think.

People still get all pissy because he cupped his ear; I’d have done a lot more than that after Arnold sunk that goal in.

Another toxic atmosphere l remember was Gateshead away in the play offs. Result was excrement but when that town goal went in it was brutal, well was where I was stood. Closest to a goal celebration I’ve experienced on the continent.

Does anyone want to be non league? Not really? Does anyone want to visit grounds with one turnstile? Nope. It will be the reality again and we all know why. This time we will have new owners, it could be a new dawning and have a positive long term benefit for the club though. Personally, I haven’t seen a town side battle so much and win so many games since we were down there (perhaps the short time PH was here in the league before Fenty drunk him off). We’ll become well acquainted with the A1 again and random places that people don’t believe are real but so be it. We can’t moan, as a club it’s our own fault.

After my greatest day as a town fan I never wanted to find us down there again but so be it. The summer prepared me for it, we prepared for failure and that’s what we got. Holloway was a disaster from the start in truth and it was clear from the very beginning we were gonna be in this mess.

Do I want to go to places like King Lynn and Wealdstone? Not really, but then again Barrow, FGR, Morecambe etc aren’t exactly amazing so it doesn’t really matter, what matters is I can support my club and I, along with many will be there.

Kings Lynn should be a lively day out I would imagine. Plenty of good pubs I’d guess .

I am miles behind the times but I have just been pointed to the Wealdstone raider.
I would suspect this would make our game against Wealdstone either an early kick off or a weekday match to avoid trouble
The National League truly is the gift that keeps on giving. On a serious note I watched a couple of clips, looked at a couple of the grounds and felt sick utm

They've got an excellent club house at Wealdstone, I went there for an Electro 80's gig just before the first Lockdown last year ... the ground itself isn't up to much though and Ruislip is not the easiest place to get to.
