Assume we’ll be able to pay on the day though?

“There will be an increase of £3 per adult and £2 per concession.” Will take it to £26 if pay on the day.

A brilliant day. But the score was the other way round! City won 3-1.

BBC Sport - Football - Charlton 1-3 Exeter

Two tickets bought and train tickets sorted too (though a bit of a drive to Banbury because of engineering works on the Chiltern Line). Meeting up with a former work colleague who is a big Charlton fan.

That 2011 game was amazing. Including winning away at another club's ground in front of just shy of 25,000 (they had a reduced price offer for the match which boosted the attendance). That season we also famously won away at Hillsborough in front of 20,000+ fans.

Are you just visiting Banbury? There are City fans living in North Milton Keynes, Hook Norton and Brackley - we travel to matches although doing this by train.

Also where are the exiles meeting in terms of pubs on the way? suggestions for those arriving from Euston and getting across London - best local suggestions please. UTC Thanks

The London exiles often meet up near London Bridge to drink there then head to the game - haven’t seen a note yet either way

Yes, at the Southwark Brewery - apparently this is the plan.

Sadly I won't be there - President's Day at Cricket which I need to be at.

Anyone know how many pre ticket sales we have made for this one? Would be nice to have over 1,500k Grecians singing their hearts out in the away end.

A tad under 1000 I saw during the week. Over 1200 would be stupendous.

Was just shy of 1200 after the match yesterday.

Yes, just a one off due to engineering works on the Chiltern Line north of Banbury. Normally travel from the Bham area.
