I’m away for Swindon, Northampton & Stevenage are consecutive weeks - so it’s one or the other. I’m going for Stevenage.

maddog Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 Confession to make - 2 of the 4 voting for Stevenage are me and @jorvik_latic. We just wanted to spend time with you . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We just wanted to spend time with you . More than likely two more as well. Pig of a journey from Brizzle, but life is full of trials. Swindon makes up for it, though; 45 minutes down the M4.

Anyone know what it's like? Got stuck in Stevenage overnight in 1979 after seeing led Zeppelin at Knebworth, after our coach driver said he would leave if we weren’t back on the coach at midnight. Who would leave led Zeppelin early just to catch a coach home? not us, still one of the best gigs I went to. anyway, all I remember of Stevenage is walking to the station and sleeping on the grass outside it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lookersstandandy Posted October 18, 2018 Author Share Posted October 18, 2018 Instead of heading to a local spoons, anyone fancy something a bit different? Apparently there are couple of decent pubs in the old town [who knew], called the Marquis of Lorne and the Coach & Horses. http://www.marquisoflorne.co.uk/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’ll confuse the sh1t out of him though, because as the leader of the OASIS breakfast club - the first train out of London to whatever backwater we’re travelling to - he’s normally up & out his door at 6am. He’s gonna be twiddling his thumbs until the pubs open. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back out to his nearest Weatherspoons in time to greet the first Latics fans that arrive on the scene.. It'll seem like a normal away day.
