I'll be there reasonably early I would have thought as well as I am going to take the afternoon as holiday.
The above post is complete bollox/garbage/nonsense, please point this out to me at any and every occasion possible.

I can personally confirm Dan that Crewe IS a complete shit-hole.
What a hero, What a man...... Ooooh, what a bad foul...

That SVT game was when the fog came down like we were adrift in the Arctic ice flow.

After the half-way line all you could hear was 'Pass it to me' and 'Who said that?'

have we scored? I think we've scored...Are they kicking off agin or is that a free kick? I'll check the paper in the morning and see.

I'm going to get in extra early so i can stand on that barrier at the back of the away end. You shred your fingers holding on to the chicken wire fence but at least you can see the pitch.
I'm not asking you to 'think outside the box' I just wish you'd have a rummage around in it once in a while.

I think Mansfield is the nearest mainline station.

You can get a taxi from there.

It's a shame to lose your 100% attendance all the way to Wembley so early in this cup run... JSL... Do you wish to take this risk? Really?

I'm assuming that the game is being played on Tuesday 26th August?? I'll be driving back from Essex on the morning of the game and expecting to get back up here around 2.30pm, in which case I should be able to attend. Is there anyone from here driving over, that I can cadge a lift from, please?

It is the 26th. I'm sure that Lanzarote will be much nicer than Crewe at this, or any other time of the year!
