So who is going to Wealdstone?

[shrimperjon]

So guys and girls who is off to Wealdstone Saturday. From what i remember we took around 1000 (full allocation i believe) last season

Would expect the same on Saturday? no reason why not. Maybe we arent getting the results that our performances have deserved but Saturday with Husin, Hyde and Ralph back in the side, KL a full game as well and a new formation proved what we are capable of. Sooner or later we are going to give someone a thrashing. Know Wealdstone are high in the table but doubt theyve had a run of games we have. The next few weeks will tell us a lot about this side with teams that we should be able to beat coming up.

3 of us going, didn't go last season so a new ground for me, seems like its close to a wetherspoon which is always a bonus . According to there site they are still selling tickets so yeah probably 800-1000. Fancy a 2 or 3-0 blues

I'll be there with my 15 year old son. First time this season and I can't wait to see the boys in action. COYB.

A lot of tight games there. Not many scored or conceded. 0-0 incoming.

Haha yeah heard it's not great, but that's what makes football at this level

Don't forget... Hot food at both ends.

If you went last season, you'll get that reference.

I didn't go last season but presuming it's that bad it goes in one end and straight out the other end

No not at all. They did gourmet burgers. Very nice to be fair.

They had a tannoy that kept going off every 5 minutes stating they had hot food at both ends. Literally after every John White punt down the field to Egbri, that announcement followed for the entire game.

 

[RHB]

Me and her are going. New ground for us. Very difficult to sit down and watch?

 

[shrimper61]

I am going my first time at this ground. Hopefully we play as well as we did against Wrexham and come home with a win.

 

[Massimo Giovanni]

Another ground to tick off the list. I hope for a better viewing experience than Solihull and I am sure it will not be as good as the Shay.
Mate is driving, what is the travel time likely to be from Rayleigh to get there 30 minutes before kick off? 2hours is plenty?

 

[C'mon you Shrimpers]

I'm going. I never expect a win away and have seen us win only at Withdean and Priestfield (one against Gillingham and once Brighton) and seen us lose up and down the country but it's near where my mother was brought up and I remember having to get off at Preston Road station and walk to my gran's house. Ah nostalgia.

[lreed567]

Leaving Wickford about 11:30, looks like it's about an hour and a half

 

[Swiss Tony]

I'll be there (Billy no mates.)

I think we will tonk someone soon but not sure it will be Wealdstone who with ex-Shrimper Nathan Ferguson in the side are the surprise package so far this season, sitting in 6th having lost only once.

I’ll settle for a comfortable win and we can save the tonking for Yeovil or Woking.

Yes will be there just bought my ticket very easy.From my memory from last visit the facilities or lack of them are pretty primitive,dont drink to much as you will spend more time queuing than watching the game
