    No. I just like to have an exclusion zone around me.

    Certainly will be, trip to a non-league ground we'll probably never play a competitive game at again, cheaper than going to the theatre of misery that is Oakwell for the average game, why wouldn't I go?

    OK, so I may need my head seeing to, but I've actually been looking into this possibility.

    The ground holds less than your away end :)

    You will probably be allocated c1200 tickets.

    How many tickets will we get? I'd be amazed if we bring as many as 500 to be honest. Most people would struggle to get there for an evening game without taking time off work and money is tight at this time of year
    Believe it or not our away support this season has been superb, both in numbers and vocal backing.
    Oakwell is largely like a morgue. Given our shocking home record there's a lot of apprehension in the stands.
    In case you hadn't noticed morale amongst our support is rock bottom at present :)

    Not got a clue how many we'd bring to be honest, especially it being a midweek game, but I know a lot of people will want to come because it's a a ground not many of our lot will have visited.

    :) yeah it was a tad noticable!

    Away matches are better as everyone is lumped together.

    Draw could have a big say in it, Blyth or someone like that away with small allocation or a top six club away then we'll sell the lot because of the way our away tickets are allocated

    Yeah that's true because first refusal for somewhere like Blyth would probably be STHs who have been to all three FA Cup games and probably a number of league games too.

    Unless as has been said we're given an attractive draw tonight when we'll sell out, I could see 500-800 making the trip. Not too long a journey, ground we've never been to before, (theoretically) decent chance of winning. Our away support has been alright this season so there'll be a few going for sure, me and couple of other lads included.

    I am. Closest possible BFC game since I moved to North Wales only 50 Miles down the road. Just waiting to see the Club's announcement on tickets to see if I end up in the away end or the home end if not.
