Exeweb Rail travel HQ or so it seems!!
Popped to get my Barnet tickets earlier from the club and was told that Didcot are giving us an allocation of 800 tickets so there'll be plenty for everyone that wants to go. Should be going on sale over the counter tomorrow with phone and online sales starting this afternoon hopefully.

Less than 796 left now at least...mine in the post. Assuming the sales before me they are selling well and moving well already. Get your flags and voices up to Didcot, make this a home game and roar us into the next round. Let show TV that 800 City fans will travel on a Sunday for the game. It is the FACUP, we are only 180 minutes from the 3rd Round Draw - in theory!

Let's have the balloons, banners, purple pineapples and if room one of the giant flags up. I will try and pop into Didcot to see if they have space for our giant banners on TV. It is only 2 hours.........put on a show for City!

You go me on the alarm clock
Just musing on this. Theoretically could get a flight Saturday morning to London, train to Didcot Parkway, stay overnight in the Premier Inn, get to the match, train to London straight after, fly home Sunday night and be back at the desk Monday morning same as always.

Total cost would be knocking around £300 (plus to cost of the ticket) so probably not going to come off... but I am definitely tempted (it would be a hell of a story if we did win, and a hell of a kick in the balls if we lost.)

I am tempted too but will gamble on an even more exciting next round draw......If you starve yourself for a couple of days before the game you could recoup the £300 on the Premier Inn all you can eat breakfast. :D

In RaWZ we trust....Amen.
A generous allocation..It was only 300 for Warrington last season iirc (that did not sell out)..That was a Friday trip up the M6 & a work day for many..This is a bit easier travel wise & if we get near 500,that will be a good turnout...550 at Nuneaton but only 350 at Curzon.
Who knows what the effect of the match being on TV will have on travelling numbers.

Will there be as much local excitement as there was last year in Warrington?
