1500 standing for away fans and a few in the seats on the side, assuming this will take it up to 2000. Depending on the next 3 games, we could well need an extra 1000 on top of that lot!

You'd like to think our Fans Directors/Supporters Club officials would be keeping a keen eye on what is happening with the away support after what happened at Woking and making sure there is proper communication between the two clubs about our potential support, not just leave it to chance or hope someone at Kiddiminster thinks about it. It's a Bank Holiday, 1500 tickets is no way going to be enough regardless of where we are in the League. If the Health and Safety certificate needs amending for this game to allow more away fans in, now is the time to start applying for it and lets not hear from one of our club officials wringing their hands saying well we tried ringing them up on the day but they wouldn't allow anymore in. Come on Rovers, lets be proactive about this  |

Move it to Birmingham! They're away Easter Monday, and we like going there. We would have advantage with the decor though Why not eh? Worcestershire moved cricket mmatches to Kidderminster. Talking of Worcester, the rugby ground has a much bigger capacity than Aggborough, and is free that day. |

After playing at Halifax and seeing the condition of their pitch, there may be a good reason not to move it to the Worcester rugby ground  |

Pity no priority for those of us who did Gateshead and Halifax I understand your view particularly if you aren't in one of the higher priority groups, hopefully they will increase their official away capacity for this game |

I wouldn't worry we've been here before & they'll be a lot more prepared than piss poor Woking were.
In Graydon's time Kiddie were the last game of the season when we finished 2nd bottom to Halifax with the expectation that we'd need a result going into the game fortunately Halifax saved us from that discomfort. But the game was a sell out anyway for Rovers fans & lots of tickets had been purchased for the Kiddie end. Going up with friends & some people I didn't know one of the women had a ticket for the Kiddie end but didn't really fancy it so I swapped tickets with her. So 3 of us headed to the Kiddie end only to be asked where we were from, accents failed us so we were told we wouldn't be going in there & before we could start to argue we were told they'd kept seats in the main stand & just to go along & show our tickets. Ended up strangely sat next to the Kiddie chairman but he didn't reappear for the second half!

It was under Graydon but it was the year after we finished 91st I think.

A large amont of not very good fake tickets were available for a few quid as well and amzingly got you in the home end , was the same day a bunch of Cardiff fans found a new seating arrangment in there carriage at Cheltenham Station after gesturing to Gasheads they may wish to get on their train i believe! |

You believe wrong, there were only about 10 Cardiff fans on that train and it was our "fans" who attacked it without
receiving any "invitation".

Pity no priority for those of us who did Gateshead and Halifax i'm still waiting for my booking priority for getting drenched at Brighton in 1991, watching a bloody Dobson loss, and then getting an unscheduled 'rail replacement service' thrust upon me, several delays, and a scabby local bus as our 'luxury coach' |

If there was a classification for the worst away game that I have ever attended, it would be Brighton & Hove Albion versus BRFC at the Goldstone Ground on 28 September 1991. Sounds like it might be the same game, eh? It rained continuously from the time that I arrived in Brighton (cats and dogs actually), and by HT I was literally drenched, And when the sun finally did come out I just stood there and steamed. I've even forgotten the score now, I was so keen to get away, but one thing that I do remember is that I developed bronchitis and was off work for a good time afterwards. |
