The last sentence in the Mirror article...
"So there you go, conclusive proof that there is always someone worse off than you...unless you're a Carlisle fan."
You reading that Mr Nixon?

Doubt that many would have gone if it was a Saturday mind would they, if you really wanted to go Saturday 29th August probably the best one with it being a bank hol weekend. Sure people would rather the Hartlepool match was then than on the Tuesday slot of the Plymouth match for example.

I honestly think if that happened in Germany at about 90% of Clubs both sets of fans would boycott that, especially in the lower leagues. "The only people who'll suffer from that, is the club..." or whatever b0llocks folk keep saying to avoid a boycott.

Sure people would rather the Hartlepool match was then than on the Tuesday slot of the Plymouth match for example. I agree. Was actually quite relieved to see that Plymouth was one of the mid-week games. I wasn't going to go anyway so it's taken out one of the pesky Tuesday games. However appreciate that for those who want to do every game no matter what it's a bit of a bugger! Orient and Luton being mid-week is far more annoying to me, as are the 3 London trips in 4 weeks which will probably mean I have to give Barnet the elbow.

Bank holiday Saturday, loads of holiday makers heading for Cornwall and a caravan had overturned on the motorway. Took over 10 hours. just to get there.

That's the time I went to Plymouth and it was a bloody nightmare got there at half two from a 5am start. Plymouth scored an equaliser right at the end.
Your going to get some dodgy fixtures with the league being so southern. January we might as well stop in London though.

I went to that game on a coach too, we ended up being late for kick off because of the traffic. Whoever it was who'd sorted the coach rang Plymouth Foitball Club and asked about the possibility of delaying kick off, they said they'd be able to if more than one coach was delayed.
Somebody then rang the supporters travel lot and asked if they'd be able to say they were going to be late too, they said no.

I was on that bus as well, first time I met Floyd that day, God rest him. We never got in until about 3.20 and they equalised virtually last kick of the game.

That's the only time I've ever been to Home Park and went on the Supporters Bus and we got there at 1445. 94th minute equaliser for Plymouth, absolutely gut-wrenching.

The day we're at Newport, there's a 6 nations game in Cardiff (ko 4.50), so that might be moved too. I hope not though, surely Newport would have asked to be away that day if they were bothered?
