I still think a lot of floaters will see it as a game against a league side not too far away and turn out for it, a lot of players friends and family's will turn out as well being FA Cup 1st round.I'll never forget how shocked I was walking up the steps at the deva in 1992 to see such a packed away end when I expected about 250 to be there.

We must have had seven hundred at the deva that day or more

As I'm taking the new lady in my life, who doesn't really know much about the beautiful game, I shall be in the stand for a change.

This and the fact that we've just lost three on the bounce, but I hope I'm wrong. I shall shout myself hoarse anyway, don't get the chance very often anymore

I think people might be over exaggerating.

I for one can't do Sunday. I wonder how many other people could have done Saturday but are now going to miss out due to the inability of Burton to employ their own stewards.

We'll take 287

Not going as have a Juniors match to manage at lunchtime. So thats 4 down.

Must say that this game does not excite me much. Lets hope they under estimate us and the team turn up with the correct frame of mind.

Come on you Robins

Speaking of ITV, I notice in the Radio Times that there are FA Cup highlights at 10.45pm on the Sunday evening on ITV1. Burton v Alty is mentioned as one of the games that will be featured, so perhaps a few extra quid for the coffers there?

Post by: Mrs Warbouys on November 02, 2012, 12:36:45 PM
Brilliant, lets hope so, I still reackon 350, even if one or two can't make a sunday

It's a shame the draw is not Saturday evening because I think this would stoke up the interest (Sheffield United vs Burton or Altrincham sounds good). As it stands I am going for a pessimistic 235 through the turnstile from us
Title: Re: How many will we take to burton on sunday?
Post by: Jenga on November 02, 2012, 12:49:21 PM
well 65 on coach and mini bus plus definately another 20 or so on the facebook group, so that is 85 with no effort.

I bet she can't wait  ::)

256 away fans. It doesn't feel like a game against a league club and the excitement isn't really what it should be.

She is actually very positive about trying something new - and wants to go to a Newcastle game sometime, since her mother was a Geordie. Never done St.James's Park, so why not ?  ;)

Phil,

I hate to be the bearer of bad news but I suspect that the lady who you have been dating is actually Jim Rushe in drag......

As someone who has never been to an alty away game, could someone fill me in on details about coaches or would I have to of booked a seat for them? If I don't need to of booked then what sort of price am I looking at?

You need to book to travel on the coach and I'm pretty sure tomorrow is fully booked.

Sorry to advise that the coach and minibus are full for tomorrow.

We take names in advance via the club and at matches in the club shop.

Some games we have seats on the the day but not this time although its always best to book.

If you are desperate to go might be worth putting a post on here seeing if anyone has a spare car seat on a new thread so people see it.

As an official floater i won't be going. I still see Burton as a non league club so it was a very disappointing draw for me.  The game is winnable if Reeves can bang in a couple of early goals but i think Burton will wear the lads down and get a late winner. 216 Alty fans.

A draw would be a decent result for us from a money point of view.
I cant see a replay worth showing live on tv so far
