Saint_clark Posted 19 September, 2009 Posted 19 September, 2009 On halloween I believe, anyone taking a costume? Might be 4-5 of us coming up from Weymouth.
marc_saint Posted 20 September, 2009 Posted 20 September, 2009 Hadn't thought of getting dressed up for Halloween but i have booked my train from Swindon. Should be good as it's another ground to tick off the list.
Saint Samuel Posted 20 September, 2009 Posted 20 September, 2009 Looking forward to this one, will be getting the train up.
Bourno Posted 23 September, 2009 Posted 23 September, 2009 Just checked on the greyhound bus site and they have journeys to London for £1 and return for £1 on the day of the Orient game.
This Charming Man Posted 23 September, 2009 Posted 23 September, 2009 Please can nobody dress up. You'll only embarrass yourself and everyone else.
Red&White Posted 23 September, 2009 Posted 23 September, 2009 Fancy going to that game boozers any good ?
JRM Posted 24 September, 2009 Posted 24 September, 2009 Please can nobody dress up. You'll only embarrass yourself and everyone else. you need to get in the spirit of it mate, i've already emailed the club and asked them to play with an orange ball with a face drawn on it to pretend it is a pumpkin
keithd Posted 29 September, 2009 Posted 29 September, 2009 will be my first away trip of the season, and as has already been requested any boozer suggestions would be a billy bonus....
Hatch Posted 29 September, 2009 Posted 29 September, 2009 Fancy going to that game boozers any good ? No, I used to live around that area. They are all dumps.
Guest Dark Sotonic Mills Posted 29 September, 2009 Posted 29 September, 2009 Anyone going from Winchester? I need 2 for a Groupsave at £15 per head for a Travelcard.
saint_bert Posted 29 September, 2009 Posted 29 September, 2009 Just checked on the greyhound bus site and they have journeys to London for £1 and return for £1 on the day of the Orient game. Their superb aswell. We used them to get to victoria on Saturday. We shall be doing Leyton Orient on them aswell. Just hope they empty the loo ah lee?
SaintMilesie Posted 30 September, 2009 Posted 30 September, 2009 Looking forward to this one, will be getting the train up. Looks like engineering works on the tube that weekend, any ideas what is going to be the best route once you arrive at Waterloo ?
saints_is_the_south Posted 30 September, 2009 Posted 30 September, 2009 Their superb aswell. We used them to get to victoria on Saturday. We shall be doing Leyton Orient on them aswell. Just hope they empty the loo ah lee? Indeed. Apart from that though it was great, never had so much leg room!
Neil Posted 30 September, 2009 Posted 30 September, 2009 Looks like engineering works on the tube that weekend, any ideas what is going to be the best route once you arrive at Waterloo ? Just had a look, there's 6 (SIX) lines affected that weekend! But the good news is that the Northern Line and Central Line aren't amongst them. So I guess it's Northern Line from Waterloo to Tottenham Court Road, then Central Line to Leyton, then it's less than half a mile walk to the ground. Not sure on pubs round the ground, but sounds like they're not too fancy! Will have to be a trip to Bethnal Green / Shoreditch etc after the game... http://www.tfl.gov.uk/assets/livetravelnews/realtime/tube/track-closures.pdf
SaintMilesie Posted 1 October, 2009 Posted 1 October, 2009 Cheers mate, that is def the best route will have a couple in the Hole in the Wall and then move on to Leyton.
bungle Posted 5 October, 2009 Posted 5 October, 2009 Got my tickets! Looking forward to it as not been before. Got an £11 return on the train as well, bargain! We have found a real ale pub crawl to do in London before the game. More details to follow!
saints_is_the_south Posted 5 October, 2009 Posted 5 October, 2009 Getting tickets on Friday, first London away day of the season for me after missing Charlton so very much looking forward to this!

We have found a real ale pub crawl to do in London before the game. More details to follow! How did you managed to get train tickets £11 return? Will the ticket office be open after the game tomorrow? Hoping to get mine for Orient then.
Genk Posted 5 October, 2009 Posted 5 October, 2009 How did you managed to get train tickets £11 return? Will the ticket office be open after the game tomorrow? Hoping to get mine for Orient then. Yea how £11??!?!?!?!? Expect us to take a lot up there
Um Bongo Posted 5 October, 2009 Posted 5 October, 2009 (edited) Got mine today. First away game of the season. With regards to the underground, go from Waterloo then onto the Waterloo/City line to Bank, then onto Leyton. Takes 25 mins. Edited 5 October, 2009 by Um Bongo

Saint_clark Posted 5 October, 2009 Author Posted 5 October, 2009 Got mine today. First away game of the season. With regards to the underground, go from Waterloo then onto the Waterloo/City line to Bank, then onto Leyton. Takes 25 mins. Or just walk to bank.
Hemel Saint Posted 5 October, 2009 Posted 5 October, 2009 Got my tickets! Looking forward to it as not been before. Got an £11 return on the train as well, bargain! We have found a real ale pub crawl to do in London before the game. More details to follow! Be interested in this Bungle, let us know the details when you have them. We will be starting early with a Fry-up near Euston Station around 9.30-10am... so should be on the Ale by 10.30-11am
bungle Posted 6 October, 2009 Posted 6 October, 2009 Should have details of ale pubs later on today. I know that pub #1 doesn't open until 12, so will have to do some research on ale pubs open from 11am! As for £11 fare. Advanced fares children, advanced fares.

Saint Samuel Posted 7 October, 2009 Posted 7 October, 2009 Got mine after the game last night, good to see they do unreserved seating, wish more clubs did that. They've only given us an initial allocation of 950, surely we'll get more later on. Wonder how many we'll get, consider their ground only holds 9,000.
saints_is_the_south Posted 7 October, 2009 Posted 7 October, 2009 Had a email from Luker yesterday saying they were chasing more tickets but didn't have a clue how many more we'd get. According to footballgroundguide site away teams get 'around' 1000 tickets so we aint going to be getting many more. Going to get mine on Friday.
fish fingers Posted 7 October, 2009 Posted 7 October, 2009 Ok, link below to the webiste of the Capital Cask Ale Crawl. As mentioned earlier pub number 1 does not open until 12 so can rule that one out. http://www.greeneking.co.uk/capital-ale-trail The added bonus is after we have boozed at 6 pubs we'll be proud owners of a completed stamp card, and more importantly this gets us a t-shirt. My suggestion of pub order would be 2,3, 5,4,7 and 6

According to footballgroundguide site away teams get 'around' 1000 tickets so we aint going to be getting many more. Going to get mine on Friday. Charlton were given 3000 for their game earlier this season, Last season Leicester were given the whole of the East Stand I think it all depends on demand, but its more likeley we get at least 3000 tickets if the initial allocation sells quickly IMO .

marc_saint Posted 7 October, 2009 Posted 7 October, 2009 I thought we were doing Cask Ale Trail 1? That only has 5 pubs. What lagers do they sell? Dont like warm flat beer. ;-)

My suggestion of pub order would be 2,3, 5,4,7 and 6 Hi all.... Here is the map of the Ale Trails.... http://www.greeneking.co.uk/capital-ale-trail/london-ale-trail.pdf Is your suggestion to start at pub nos 2 on the map.... "Monument", 18 Fish Street Hill, EC3R 6DB? What time are you kicking off?
Genk Posted 7 October, 2009 Posted 7 October, 2009 If we take 3,000 there will be more of us then them surely?
Genk Posted 7 October, 2009 Posted 7 October, 2009 If we take 3,000 there will be more of us than them surely?
marc_saint Posted 8 October, 2009 Posted 8 October, 2009 If we take 3,000 there will be more of us than them surely? We've only got (about) 1,000 tickets.
Genk Posted 8 October, 2009 Posted 8 October, 2009 We've only got (about) 1,000 tickets. Yes I know but Oldsarum said Charlton were given 3000 earlier this season. It's relatively close so I would expect us to take alot up.

SaintMilesie Posted 8 October, 2009 Posted 8 October, 2009 Yes I know but Oldsarum said Charlton were given 3000 earlier this season. It's relatively close so I would expect us to take alot up. Spoke to Dave Luker just a min ago we have another 1500 tickets on way should arrive tomorrow.
rick1976.4.38 Posted 8 October, 2009 Posted 8 October, 2009 should be another good away day for the red and white army,good its sit where you want ,as all the non singers can sit at the front while the vocal support can gather at the back,coyr
fish fingers Posted 8 October, 2009 Posted 8 October, 2009 I am actually thinking of doing pub crawl #2, rather than number 1. We would be wanting to start at 11 of the morning. You decide, we follow you, makes things easier.
alehouseboys Posted 8 October, 2009 Posted 8 October, 2009 Charlton were given 3000 for their game earlier this season, Last season Leicester were given the whole of the East Stand I think it all depends on demand, but its more likeley we get at least 3000 tickets if the initial allocation sells quickly IMO . The last two times I've been there we took something like 5,000 in the FA Cup, early 80s, and of course that Wednesday night way back in '78 when out of a gate of over 19,000 the vast majority were Saints fans. Didn't Barry Hearn have a pop at us in the summer? Don't think he'll appreciate too many Saints fans swamping his little bit of the East End.
chocco boxo Posted 8 October, 2009 Posted 8 October, 2009 Halloween lets scare the **** out of them with say 4,000 loud fans! COYR.
RedWillie Posted 8 October, 2009 Posted 8 October, 2009 ah yes, that cup game in the eighties- all got a bit messy if I remember correctly and didn't a wall break or something?
SaintMilesie Posted 9 October, 2009 Posted 9 October, 2009 ah yes, that cup game in the eighties- all got a bit messy if I remember correctly and didn't a wall break or something? Yes lots of West Ham there causing mayhem
saints_is_the_south Posted 9 October, 2009 Posted 9 October, 2009 1st allocation sold out, 2nd allocation should arrive tomorrow or Monday.
Saint_clark Posted 9 October, 2009 Author Posted 9 October, 2009 6 of us coming up from Weymouth now.
saints_is_the_south Posted 9 October, 2009 Posted 9 October, 2009 2nd allocation has arrived & now on sale, just got 4 tickets.
Prince Jazzbo Posted 9 October, 2009 Posted 9 October, 2009 Charlton were given 3000 for their game earlier this season, Last season Leicester were given the whole of the East Stand I think it all depends on demand, but its more likeley we get at least 3000 tickets if the initial allocation sells quickly IMO . Charlton had 2700 there, Millwall had about 1900. So I would guess that we would get 2700 at best and about 2000 at worst.
