As for the disparaging day tripper terminology it's now approaching 70 years since I lived within 190 miles do I'm not going to feel too guilty about not being a weekly attendee. There's summat paradoxical about labelling an Oldham Athletic supporter a 'day-tripper' anyway marra. I'll join the bet too deyeres42 - £20 to the foodbank on those terms.

For me: Driving to this one. 170 miles, 3 hours. By train: 3 hours 28 minutes. Add another 40 minutes to/from stations and we are talking 4 plus hours journey time. Driving it is. Now... what’s the parking like? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drove there a few years ago, there’s plenty of parking on the surrounding industrial estate for about £4 - £5. Might be a bit different if there’s a bigger crowd there of course Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The industrial estate you drive into to get to the ground offers plenty of parking, the closer you get to the ground they start charging to park. Last time it was a fiver at worst.

Last time it was a fiver at worst. Last time I went I was delayed hunting for on-street parking in a walkable distance (don't bother unless you are very early) so I parked in one of the official car parks just after kick off. It was free (as no one seemed to want to collect my money). I've a feeling that if you get there before 1.30pm (for a 3pm kickoff) it might be free due to other people using the same car park for other services- community sports and the likes. Might be free if you get there late too. Edited January 8, 2019 by rudemedic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hands on Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 Well for me it is a must but by car and therefore less lubrication for the singing. A game we can win but I suspect in the back of our minds one where we will hope for a draw. I fancy we will be on Sunday again at 2 but no hope of the tv as you need to be either Barnet or at home against prem team. Lets hope Sylla is a good replacement for Lydon and that we sign another SS and keep everyone else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Witty Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 How long has it taken in the past before we've known what day/time the game is on? A constant barrage of "do you know when its on yet?" is hitting me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
