Yep and it sounds like they could have done it you look at their forum. Mind you, it’s a fixture we probably could have taken 3/4K to no problem with it being the last Away game and potentially the day we seal a play off place.

I expect it’s gonna be one of those more lively away days lol

I’d better start revising some Cheltenham F.C. history.

I tend to put on a foreign accent, say I have wanted to watch a game of English football whilst visiting the country, and if they ask I give the address of where I lived for a year in Lyon

I know it's simplistic, but can't you just wear some red and white, like a red jumper, white shirt, or red hoodie etc.?

Wouldn't think they would even begin to question you if you were wearing the team colours would they?

Err... but in reverse.

Everyone will be in red and white and you would be in red and white. That's the opposite of Wally isn't it?

I don't get how someone hasn't been to a single game in a season, yet feels like he can ring up 3 times a week to give his opinion on the team selection!? Surely if he's that interested he'd get to a couple of games a season.

To be honest no one ever asks. I have been in the home end at Lincoln, Luton, Exeter & FGR this season. No questions and no problems. This fixture is POTG so would be even less hassle to get a ticket.

Posh you say?
I’ll dig out the wax jacket and adopt an RP accent then. Like at FGR...you couldn’t bloody move for fucking mustard/burgundy cords and bloody almond milk.

I'm pretty sure this is 'Brummie Nick' (a lot of thought went into that), who was a regular on the SBA bus back in the 90s. He never missed a game back then. Haven't seen him for years. He's not alone I guess, but it is odd that someone clearly so engaged with the club doesn't go at all now.

Annoying they don't do the park and ride anymore. Apparently ground is 10/15 mins from the centre, so will walk from there.
