I really hope that we sell out our allocation. The Aldershot fans naively think they are a bigger club than us (very strange to understand but true!) and I sincerely hope we better their away following at the Kassam this season.
The official site states we have around 500 left. What is the allocation they have given us?
It will be a cracking atmosphere if we do sell the full allocation.
There has never been a better time to get a result at their dump of a ground!
Looking forward to this one for once. I have been every time since we dropped into the conference and we have played poorly on each occasion. The game earlier in the season (in the cup) was a waste of time!

Would love to beat them at there place. Would be a good time to get the first win there. We had 800 odd terrace tickets and 100 or so seats. So we have only sold 500 to season ticket holders. Which is poor. Think there will only be 700-800 of us there which will be disappointed, it's only up the road...

Brought my ticket online. For some reason they would only sell me a ticket which is labelled "Seating"
Hopefully, I can nip round to the terrace. It's not like they are proper club with proper organisation or anything like that.

Their fans are a mixed bunch. Full of cocky w*nkers that think their average attendance of less than 2500 is acceptable for a league club, and that they're a bigger club than one who gets 7000+ in most games, but also a team with groups of very vocal, loyal and proud fans. I really do hope we beat them, the loss earlier in the season was just depressing considering the Port Vale game and the fact that they had just 1 good moment in the entire match.

I hope that we turn them over and would not be too disappointed if they end up back in the conference

People go on about it being 'a great atmosphere!' there. I hate it. The fookin drums really do do my head in. Banging a drum as loud as you can is not a good atmosphere. They don't sing without it, and you can't hear them sing with it going. Would love to beat them on Sat.

It's not like they are proper club with proper organisation or anything like that. You have to click on the bit that says "seating" and it drops down with 2 options. Almost got me as well. You should be able to nip round - or call the ticket office first thing and they should change it for you.

I'll ring the ticket office and get them changed. Not fair on those in the Seating area who want to sit down if I go in there.

We should sell the terrace out (hopefully). Unlikely that seating will sell out though. Really looking forward to this one. Revenge will be sweet this weekend, and especially on the 15th! That horror show has not been laid to rest though quite yet. We are still conceding - luckily we are scoring a few more.

They should refund the two quid, to be fair, the club are pretty good with this sort of thing.
I'm also looking forward to this one - going to be making the journey by train i reckon - although you've got to change at about 50 different stations around Hampshire!

And one change involves a walk to a different station

And one change involves a walk to a different station Half tempted to try going into London and back out. Might well be easier. EDIT - on the way there it looks like no walks between stations depending on what train you get but on the way back you've got to walk between Ash Vale and North Camp, which takes 10 minutes apparently.

In all fairness to them, they are one of few teams that actually have people that can play the drums (well last time I was there anyway). Made for a very good atmosphere too...

Is 10 -15 min walk (10 along the river) did it earlier this season as me mate lives in Ash Vale...can't you change at Ash?
