Going again slightly off topic ( with no disrepect to Hannah ), we need plenty of Black Sabbath, not Iron Maiden !!

 

After a few beers, I can walk & talk like Ozzy, & Quoman looks a bit like a blonde Geezer Butler. So do we have a Tony Iommi & Bill Ward ( Starti ??) . Obviously not one for younger readers !!

 

Finished with my woman coz she couldn't help with with my mind !! ( but don't tell the Mrs !!)

 

Cheers,

 

[Andy Y. (G&NFC)]

I could do the Bill Ward impression......

 

Not for the way I look but for our mental state!

 

"Day of Judgement, God is calling,

On their knees, the War Pigs (sic Aldersh*t fans)crawling!"

 

btw Jeff, I've been in the pub opposite opposite the ground before but they may well have changed their minds and banned away fans. Anyway, I'm pretty sure ( like the rest of the Town) it won't be all that welcoming!

There's quite a nice little pub near the ground, which I visited this season and last. It's up the road towards the away entrance, then turn right at the playground and it's about a minute down the road.

[Jeff]

Thanks for that Bernard.

 

It may well be an option.

I've gone for the harmonious approach - though it's a lot more expensive. Promised us a weekend away if we made the semis, thinking Torquay or York would be nice. Hmm - we get Aldershot. Not quite the same.

Quick trawl of info re pubs in Aldeshot with accommodation convinced me they were not a good idea. So Mrs S & myself are booked into the Holiday inn in Farnborough for the weekend. Have to pay a week in advance to get the discount price, so I hope we don't get creamed on Saturday!

I have a counter on the away thread for the Aldershot thread for how many people say they are going. Wont be accurate, but at this early stage it shows 38.

If anybody wants to add the number in the party going to Aldershot, eg 4 in a car, my counter is at

I'm going in a 6-seater limousine with Francis Kumbur, Wes Daly, Lewis Phillips, Billy Bone and Wayne Schweizo.

 

Beat that.

[wobbly Wayne II]

I'm going on a train with a few hundred seats.

 

And some of them will probably smell of piss.

 

SLF - lets talk Saturday about where your lot will be drinking beforehand. Have been in a fair few before away days at the Shots, some are better than others.

[Sth_London_Fleet]

Will do WW, speak on Sat could have done with you last night not a good crowd but at least me & Travis got our tickets for Sat.

[Hirsty]

The Fat B'stardmobile will be on manoeuvres in the Hampshire area with a full compliment of troops !!

[Jimmy]

I will be travelling by a motorcycle and sidecar driven by Scott Goodwin.

[Jeff]

Jason Eede is taking me in his Go Kart.

[Jimmy]

If Scott can't make it then Dennis Abboh has offered to give me a lift in his Robin Reliant.

[mikefleet]

i'm going

[Hirsty]

I thought that I would resurect this thread so people would realise what was going on tomorrow ! When I say "people", I don't mean the fans that are already going to support the team in their biggest game for years, but those on the outside looking in who may read this forum and think that they are looking at a poor man's tabloid newspaper site !!!...with all it's new "friends" and off field activities.

 

Let the pre match drinking commence !!!

 

Onward & upwards......

 

'kin av it !

 

Up the Fleet

 

Weather forecast looks ok now.......no jacket required Phil !

 

Regards,

[aylesduck]

Mrs duck and myself travelling down from sunny Birmingham for our 2nd fleet match and then staying somewhere in Hampshire on Sat night.

[eufckev]

We have a team of 6, possibly rising to 8 going on the train tomorrow. Plus meeting one other at Aldershot itself
