This is a big joke of course, I had a ST when Alf Wood was playing, but gave up after a few years after SISU destroyers came in.I'm not taking Glee mate because 1. Im helping the club not killing them. 2. the amount of shit ST holders have took i for one will piss my self laughing when you all come running back to sixfields for a big game.
Preston are subsidising coach travel, charging £10, so they may bring more than the 150 being bandied about.
If people see "the club" as a Coventry based football team and feel that by going you are legitimising a move out of Coventry. How are they not killing the club?
I think the estimate by the police of 500 to 600 sounds about right, they never bought a 1000 to the Ricoh to my knowledge (apart from the JPT) so why would they bring more this time around, does not make sense. Personally as a fan for over 50 years I'll never set foot in Sixfields, but its all about choice I guess.
Brighton and Rotherham did not die
I have saw a few people say "I cant see Preston bringing many" Just for you NOPM people, Preston have been allocated 900 and they have asked for more so now they have 1,300. So yes they will bring quite a few and yes a few more cov fans are going than they did against Bristol, So yes it will be a higher attendance.
Brighton and Rotherham did not die
FACT hey :thinking about:
Brighton and Rotherham did not die
Yes it looks like it was a FACT actually lol.

Surely an allocation is increased as a result of sales, otherwise why bother?

Make your mind up.The other week you were bragging about how you couldn't wait to get back to fortress sixfields. I get the impression that youre a bit of a wind up merchant to be honest,either that or youre just an odd ball.
yep.. but not the 1300 (25 coaches) being bandied about bu the likes of EasternGreen and Edgy.
Brighton played at Gillingham and had a plan to come back Rotherham played four miles away and had a plan to come back We havent and have a perfectly good ground available so please tell me where the similarity is between us and them?
Brighton didnt have a plan at all they eventually moved back to play at a sports stadium then finally got the land at Falmer.
Beat me to itAre you not getting 'up north' confused with 'north east'?

Rotherham:
Millmoor is a stadium in Rotherham, England. It was built and was used for football matches, and until the end of the 2007–08 season was the home ground of Rotherham United F.C., until a dispute over ownership forced them to move to the Don Valley Stadium in nearby Sheffield
Following the failure of the owners of the club and the owners of Millmoor to reach a lease agreement the club left for the Don Valley Stadium in Sheffield in 2008.[12]
Brighton:
For many years Brighton and Hove Albion were based at the Goldstone Ground in Hove, until the board of directors decided to sell the stadium. The sale, implemented by majority shareholder Bill Archer and his chief executive David Bellotti, proved controversial, and the move provoked widespread protests against the board. The club received little if any money from this sale.[7] sounds familiar
A ground share with Portsmouth never materialised and the club eventually arranged a ground-share with Gillingham at their Priestfield Stadium over 70 miles from Brighton.
For two years, from 1997–99, the club shared the ground of Gillingham, before returning to Brighton to play at Withdean Stadium.
Because of the cost of the public enquiry into planning permission for a new stadium, rent on Withdean Stadium, fees paid to use Gillingham's Priestfield Stadium, and a general running deficit due to the low ticket sales inherent with a small ground, the club had an accumulated deficit of £9.5 million in 2004.

Rotherham was classed as unsafe, they had a plan and now in new stadium
Brighton was knocked down and had no choice to play elsewhere
In our case our owners did not like the rent so stopped paying it, so a perfectly good stadium is available but no football.
Was it really?
You must be quite old then, but you have not suffered as long as most of us.I will NEVER stop watching a team i have followed home and away for 15 years because of some arseholes in the board room.
Are you not getting 'up north' confused with 'north east'?
