It wasn't looking like I was going to miss tomorrow has we where due to come back from the top of Scotland tomorrow, however when  it decided to tip it down this afternoon I talked my wife into leaving a day early. Just making the 12 hour 564 mile trip back. Due to arrive in Grimsby at 2am. Then back in the car tomorrow morning. Really looking forward to another 3 points tomorrow. Utm

I was all set to drive down via M40 but chickened out and booked train instead from Sheffield. Hope to avoid Man City and Liverpool fans in London.

I always went M40 even to Heathrow when I had meetings that way.

Either by A46 past Coventry or A43  Northampton.

Haven't yet decided which way we are going tomorrow.

That's a long trip from up there. We usually do it in two or three stages whenever we venture that far north.

After Eastleigh, this is my closest game to me so I am looking forward to a "home" game.

Hopefully it will be easy to refill the petrol tank for those going by car. Seems a bit of panic buying going on again. Hope everyone has a safe trip

Probably venturing into non football but the petrol madness is purely down to the media talking it up, yes we're short of truckers but 100's of tanker drivers haven't just disappeared since a week ago.

Very short trip for me but so excited for my first town game since pre lockdown. If the atmosphere is close to Orient away it'll be rocking

19 miles for us. First game since Crawley away 18 months ago.

Haven’t been so excited about a match since our first game back in the league against Morecambe really looking forward to seeing this team.
