Traveling is all part of the fun. Jump in the car and have some road beers with your friends.

I guess it's different for me cos the distance is basically no different.

Snap, same distance for me, still feels like an away game

I was just pointing out the irony about you whinging about the location and calling people who go superfans when you didn't really bother when it was literally on your doorstep last year.

No no you misunderstood lets have it right. You jumped down throat without thinking.

I have no issue with ppl who go. I applaud them. I wsnt to go a few times to st andrewa myself. This is not no scab BS. We been forced out

My point was that some fans try to make out this better thab ricoh and fans should not moan and just go. I expected the novelty of travelling to brum to wear off quickly and seems it is for some. Its a desperate situation not a perfect one is my point.

I really didn't misunderstand, you were trying to be clever for a change.

Driving the extra isn't ideal for most people, I can walk to the Ricoh.

I want to watch live football in the flesh. Just treat it as extra away games.

The thing is though St Andrews is easier for some people in Cov to get to than the Ricoh. Leave the missus shopping in the bull ring, drink along Digbeth to the ground and sorted.

Yep for a lot of people it probably doesn't make much difference. It's 40 mins of travelling whether it is the Ricoh or not for me. But st andrews ends up costing me about £18 all in compared to £25-30 all in for the Ricoh .

Nothing wrong eith your edited post

But some have talked as if distance is fine and it clearly isnt for many

That was my only point. Dont sugar coat it like SOME fans have

If you like it oersonally more ppwer to u but thrtr are gonna be fans that cba with travelling brum every 2 weeks and thats fine too.

Yes back to thread without an apology. Sweep under carpet after posting for likes. Pathetic rly

But yes ok lets move on

Not really interested in the arguments you put forward, but I for one would appreciate if you could read your post before posting, as some of your words, on first reading, don't make sense.

There - lecture from a grammar cop - I'll get me coat

Just getting the lawn mower out to cut the grass and wait for the goal alerts from the beeb.

Although it's much easier for me to get to St Andrews, without my lad to assist with my mobility scooter, I'm unable to travel alone. Here's hoping for a win today and not like last week at Bolton.

Done exactly this, the Primark is huge so there’s plenty of time for the family to pass while

To be honest it seems to go like that on a matchday so I think it's likely due to a pre-match drink. I think CCFC aren't good for his liver.

Line us as expected with Godden in for Baka from previous league game. Also as expected Allen not ready yet so not on the bench. Bapaga in instead of Biamou - maybe just treating hm carefully esp as he played for U23.

My point was there were fans that couldn't be bothered traveling a couple of miles.
