Did you not chat to them before or after the game?
No I wasnt there so couldn’t chat with them before or after the game.
Your point is?[/quote]That message board posters often have a different view of the game due to not seeing the game live. Possibly whatever you read on a Plymouth fans messageboard was a few keyboard warriors who don’t go to games giving their opinion based on local text feed or local radio commentary that is usually quite biased towards the home side.

Getting to the next round will help boost the coffers in terms of sponsorship and ticket sales – 5000 guaranteed from West Ham. Hopefully some of our not-so-die-hard fans will turn up. They were expecting to be at the DW that weekend anyway for the visit of Oxford, so there’s no excuse not to turn up for the visit of West Ham.
£10 a ticket and lets fill the ground for once. Maybe even tempt some of the premier league glory hunters back?
Mate of mine who is a Rovers fan refuses to believe that Jack Walker’s money bought them their Prem title, talk about being in denial !Some of our fans refuse to believe that Dave Whelan’s money bought us a place in the Premier League.
Graham Alexandra ex Dingle too. Used to come on and score pens.Will Grigg must be the first player to ever have a song sung for his bench-warming exploits during Euro 2016.
He’s got a stadium named after him and a statue outside the stadium that is named after him. I don’t see anyone playing professional anything at the Nick Clegg Arena.
Why would he need an honour?
You seem to have got lost. Allow me to redirect you to the correct area:
We need to get used to sides parking the bus at the DW – after all we are the Man City of League 1
Its a race for 2nd spot now, so Shrewsbury will feel good about taking 4 points from their two matches with us – I doubt many will equal or better that haul.
Ps. Coldest I’ve been at a game for a long time. And no way there was 8806 on. A lot of ST holders probably gave it a miss. Can’t blame people with the weather, really.Strange you should say that – it means there were almost 1000 non season ticket holders attending this game than the one two months ago against Southend, where the attendance (inc ST holders was 8133). I wasn’t aware of any special deal to tempt people from their cosy houses and Wish FM!
If it bothers you that much, get there early, or camp out the night before!
Thats not my point. My point is, you’d expect a non league club to take the chance to rake in some cash whilst theyve got the chance. As Ive said before, personally I dont drink so Im not bothered anyway.Ok, I’ll re-phrase it. If we draw Man Utd, Man City, Liverpool or Everton at home in the next round, would you be happy if we gave them the North and East Stands to ensure maximum revenue and a full house?
You seem to think we have a God-given right to have our backsides licked by Fylde and they should feel not worthy of our presence. Perhaps its you that is not giving AFC Fylde respect – I just hope Cookie isn’t thinking that way!
Serious question VAT – if we drew AFC Bournemouth, Swansea or Huddersfield at home in the next round, would you expect the club to bend over backwards to accommodate the premier league opponents, offering their fans the opportunity to drink in the South Stand?
In your eyes maybe. I happen to think that 1357 is very generous, and bearing in mind our average away following is less than 1,000, it still makes provision for over 400 tickets to be available to those who hardly ever travel.
I suspect there may still be tickets available on Thursday morning.
Latics arent at fault. Fylde are. They get 1600 on average, and have given us 1357. So thats 3000.I don’t recall us giving Newcastle 10,000 tickets for the fixture last season.
The officials were poor, but in the end, they saved us with that handball in our penalty area near the end. No doubt the Northampton equivalent of this site are equally as disappointed in the standard of reffing.
Didn’t we get a free kick from that handball incident?[/quote]
Indeed we did – which just goes to show how bad the ref was!
The Cobblers had appeals for a penalty turned down with 5 minutes to go. This is the incident here: pic.twitter.com/HbZnyBukZu
