    Fair enough.

    Agreed on away days - they are much more hardcore.

    I like the routine of going to home games and currently miss it but the diehards are at away games.

    I did Blackpool last season and had a ticket for Shrewsbury but didn't go as unwell.

    As you say, can always watch it at home if can't make it.

    Every time I pay for an Ifollow pass we seemed to drop points - so I stopped paying!

    With health in mind maybe better to go to the odd home game.

    I keep forgetting - Gillingham wasn't it?

    Is it easy for you lot to get an away ticket?

    Is it done on loyalty points as to when people get access to them?

    Yes mate, Gillingham, L2. Got a new owner in now, already got through two managers under him, now on our third, hopefully something clicks this season - team seem to be doing well pre season, some new players in as well, so I never know, see how it goes. Air of positivity seems to be about the place, so always helps when that reflects onto the pitch.

    Sadly it’s not an option in the U.K. to watch my team with a beer unless on TV.

    Getting harder and harder as numbers are improving hugely. Traditionally (or in my time going at least) we've never travelled well past the midlands but that seems to have changed in recent seasons and we've sold 3k for Newcastle probably for thr first time ever.

    Yeah they split up the windows by recent away attendances but never more than a season and a half worth's - so they'll use last season's and this season's aways up until about Christmas where they'll swap to this season only.

    A camelback full of red wine, worn on your front, under your jacket works very well, and is pretty much undetectable at most to all sporting / music events.

    Birmingham have given Rangers 7200 tickets for tonight's friendly, which of course they've sold. What could possibly go wrong

    Rangers win that they’ll claim it as Battle of Britain and deserve automatic entry into the PL which they’d then get relegated from in year 1
