Can't have been many at the St Francis game in Dublin in 2000 (I think). 3-3 draw. Last minute Landon making it 3-2 in the 89th only for St Francis to equalise in injury time.

We had 23 stood up at Torquay on valentines day a few years back, that included my missus and jimmys missus who were there for the valentines weekend in Torquay..... Had we had prior knowledge of the team we were to put out that dat We would have gone Paris instead  

The Tuesday night game the year before I recall we took about 3 times that number. We can't have ever played a midweek game further from Alty I'd assume.

yes I had a week in Devon for it

My first meeting with Baldrick, I think I had bought him a drink before even meeting him in Newton Abbot

There was 77 on the away terrace that Tuesday night, added to the smattering sat down, it was an excellent turn out for such an occasion

A very enjoyable midweek trip plenty of ale and a decent draw

We've played at Dover on a Tuesday also, after the initial game was postponed due to snow, 4 of us had already arrived on the Friday evening and were told by the ticket bloke at Dover priory station that it was off already. Only game in the country that day to go ahead was reading v man united in the FA cup, pools panel gave us an away win.

Could have won it in the 2nd half, there was even a discotheque open on the Tuesday evening with it being a resort, although in Feb, and we had Exeter away on the Saturday also, kitchen floor stayed Devon based for both fixtures

Those were the days big van

true Brixham, Paignton, Newton Abbott, Dawlish, Exmouth - i did the lot!

I remember going to Barrow for an FA Trophey replay, we lost, Jeff Wealands in goal for Barrow. There was only a handfull of Alty fans there.

I think amongst the 5,000 plus crowd you may just have missed them keeping their heads down as Cult says.

I remember my dad driving a minbus to that game.

We celebrated the pools panel decision in the pub like we'd actually won the match!!
Correct on the trip to Folkestone,everyone thought we were military despite looking like the most unlikely army foursome ever!!
