Bristolatic Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 No game next weekend, so what are we going to do about our footie fix? Two members of the Bristol Massive got cheap train tickets for Stevenage weeks ago before the bloke who booked them realised it was FA Cup 4th round day. OK, it was me. But as we have the train tickets, we've decided to use them anyway and go to a game in the London area. So we've chosen THE game of the day. BARNET v CREWE! Never been to Underhill and probably never will again as they are moving after this season. Trouble is, I don't think anyone knows where to. We could regard it as an unpaid scouting mission in case they beat Swindle Town and get to Wembley. Plus, it gives us the opportunity to run the rule over ex-Latics stalwarts Dean Brill, Mark Hughes and Steve(n) Kabba. Anyone else taking a match in anywhere? Or is it a day's shopping with the Missus? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zorrro Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Pretty regular Saturday for me (yes, shopping with the missus). Was contemplating going watching AFC Wimbledon. Don't fancy going on my own though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't fancy going on my own though. We were considering that one, but the other member of BOAST (Bristol Oldham Athletic Supporters Trust) went there last season when he was in the area and Latics didn't have a game and didn't fancy it again, so Barnet it is.

singe Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Can I suggest as many people as poss go to Oldham Boro and Chadderton and give them a much needed boost Would be easy for them to get the equivalent of a full seasons income And I would love to see the record crowds not be FC United attendances.

LaticsPete Posted January 22, 2012 Share Posted January 22, 2012 Darlington v York Not been to the new Darlo ground, want to help them financially, and it should be a good local derby. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BP1960 Posted January 22, 2012 Share Posted January 22, 2012 (edited) Darlington v York Not been to the new Darlo ground, want to help them financially, and it should be a good local derby. You know where I'll be be Pete at Droylsden purring over the talent that is Dan Gardner, hope the Latics scouts are there to see for themselves. PS the Darlington ground is superb.

Zorrro Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 Was contemplating going watching AFC Wimbledon. Don't fancy going on my own though. Managed to rope in a mate who goes irregularly. Wish I hadn't bothered; it was dire. It was like being down Tate Street watching Hulmeians. Such a poor standard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the_mighty_bosh Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 Ended up going to Forest Green Vs Fleetwood on Saturday, you know you're at a special footballing experience when the opposite side of the ground has more sheep watching the game than people. Entertaining day out though, not sure that the vegetarian/no red meat stance that the owner has taken will catch on at other clubs but the food was of good quality, had a Badger Pasty which was surprisingly filling! The game itself was even and a draw would've been fair, which would've been the outcome if not for a horrendous 'keeper error in the last minute. Not convinced that Fleetwood would do well in the league if they got promoted and "£1m-rated" Jamie Vardy didn't look particularly special. Best player in the game was defender Eddie Oshodi, left-footed, strong, quick and comfortable with the ball at his feet. A player who I reckon might play at our level in the near future.
