Be well over a 1,000 I think for the second Tuesday night away game running

Blackpool are still only getting about 3,000 home fans

Took 10000+ to Anfield on a foggy Tuesday night about 40 years ago, proper fans in those days.

2p machines, walkabout and the castle too much to miss?

Wonder if they have the comedian on in the week?

Isn't that bad from here, just drags on and on

This was going to be my first game of the season but the trains have put paid to that. Normally just over an hour on the train from Manchester but bus replacement is doubling that on the way there and the journey back would be nigh on 4 hours

 

[Cov kid 55]

My first game of the season (apart from WBA), staying overnight at the hotel on the ground. Can’t wait!

James is doing a coach that leaves at 9am if you want the all day thing or one that leaves at 3pm for under £15. Banging that is. Shame I’m working away.

Hour 45 - 2 hours maybe ?

Gutted both this and Fleetwood midweek. First fixtures I looked for when released hoping for a nice weekend away. Won't be going now but wish I was!

 

[Frank Sidebottom]

Me plus 3. Heading up from Manchester... gutted this and Fleetwood are midweek... mainly because one of us will have to drive rather than train.

Do we have many North West based fans?I know we have a large number down south but I rarely hear of any City in Manchester and Liverpool.

Couple on here from Manchester area. Was one from Liverpool but he was stolen and never to be heard from again.

I live Greater Manchester

 

[Covstar]

Gonna be down there from Preston. Only 30 mins drive away!

 

[pusbccfc]

On another note, I hope there are a number of 'Oyston Out' chants from Coventry fans.

While I am paying for my match ticket Tuesday, I won't be buying any food, drink or a programme. I understand Blackpool fans kindly ask that around the ground before the game.

 

[Londonccfcfan]

Looking forward to it bit more after today.

I'd like to know how he keeps a full time job and still manages to keep this site going 24/7 ! Anyway talking of window cleaners, haven't heard from BBR for a few weeks.???

Local game for me. I can see Blackpool from where I live. And it only takes just over 90 minutes to get there if the roads are clear.

Will still be a difficult one though. Right in the middle of 2 12 hour day shifts. Leave straight from work at 5:30 to make sure I get there on time as it is peak time traffic. And get home less than 6 hours before I am back at work.

I'm popping over from Preston as well, 30 mins tops! My son is coming up from Milton Keynes for it, a good 3 hour drive especially with the shitty roadworks that make up half the M6

No, just a bad view when you get there.

If you are very lucky. I usually do it in 2 and a half hours.

Piss easy but basically all motorway, M6 and M55. M6 is 50mph limit for a good 40 miles of the journey at least
