Rent a crowd!

[Guest]

Hilarious! Take a look at the Abbey website where the webmaster has placed a picture of the half stand behind the goal full of supporters. On closer inspection the crowd are in fact Town supporters and the proof is Dingle Dangle David's St George flag. Is there a bigger piccie Mr Webmaster?

 

MERRY XMAS ABBEY

[Junior Pirate]

Steady!!! I thought this was a season of goodwill to all men or does that not include abbey??? <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/ooo.gif" alt="" />

[Guest]

of course it does. I was only joking!

[theabbeyabbott]

and so what?

[bigboybubs]

BTW the St George flag dingle dangle dave has is mine. he's only borrowed it.

Are they just Town faithful, or a few of Abbeynut's Pikey mates too?

[Guest]

Abbeynut aint got no mates.

[MbrunoB]

I think its a great quality picture and the smaller george on the fence is mine.

[Guest]

did u take it and it got nicked, bruno?

[Hawkeye Pierce]

Does it matter? Every club management wants to see their club full! So it only happens if Town drops by or Wimbledon choose a game to go on at Capershots

[theabbeyabbott]

thats a real gutbuster.......

2004-5 Stansted v Enfield att: 95

Stansted away has never been much good on the pitch for ETFC. A few decent pubs and curry houses, though. Afraid I was on holiday this year, and missed the game. Perhaps that's what done it?

[coupwotcoup]

Christ, you must be big to count for four people! Know what you mean about the pubs though. Mind you we went there in midweek (shock, not) in 93-4, got there about 4pm and not one pub in the town opened all day. The 4-2 was of scant consolation...

Coup,was your'e game against stanstead on a saturday.?Ours was midweek, with lots of games either side of it,plus there was football on the telly. So Stanstead was the game that most of us decided to miss.Just out of interest,how many other clubs have you got bigger attendances against,than the Town.???. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/whistling.gif" alt="" />

a) midweek in the League cup no less

what do you mean loads of games either side, you would hardly be playing three games a week that early in the season, even with the ESL's stranger than science scheduling, so your fixture list at that time was no different to anybody else.

c) football on the telly eh? That obviously shows were your supporters' loyalties lay

d) so you all together on the Saturday before, and came up with: "Hey lads there is football on the TV in the week, let's miss the Stansted - no A - match and stay in.

e) I am sure you know the answer to the attendance question without having to ask. Remember we were the big fish in this pond a few years back.

f) Christmas is over, so the gloves are back on!

 

Reel 'em in...fresh fish, fresh fish!

Well I like Stansted and as a frequent flyer with Ryanair I know one of their fans from the airport.

 

Midweek travel means that at the moment I miss midweek games. You want a fair chance at a good gate make it a Saturday and hope EFC are not at home because like it or not they will now affect our away gate. ETFC fans have a choice to travel (and be insulted) or to travel to Ware (and be insulted)!

Picture was not nicked but sent on if they wanted to use it along with a few others, we should all help each other as no one outside will lift a finger.

Its all very well supporting your club but it is pointless if they have no one to play.

As you didn't answer my main question..Ie.'Apart from Stanstead,how many times have Romford recorded a higher attendence than ETFC at anyone else's ground.?'.I presume the answer to that is .NONE <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" />.... As Romford is a lot closer to nearly every away ground in the league,than are Enfield Town.Thats not much to baost about,is it. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/laughuncontrollable.gif" alt="" />

Yep... thanks for the piccie.

I took one from the other side of the ground but preferred your full frontal.

For the record, it includes fans from both sides (including abbeynut, myself and my daughter)
