stkev7 Posted 16 March, 2009 Share Posted 16 March, 2009 7 of us spending the Saturday night in the hellhole that is Blackpool. I can understand why people can't be arsed with going this season after doing it last season. Massive game though and just hope it doesn't **** down with rain as we've got that awful away end.

Michelle Posted 16 March, 2009 Share Posted 16 March, 2009 7 of us did the weekender last season, bloomin' brilliant. Being more reserved this year and staying in Chester. How very civil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

red and white saint Posted 16 March, 2009 Share Posted 16 March, 2009 Going up saturday and staying overnight. Was a quality weekend last year. With loads of saints in The manchester before the game hopefully we will get as many up there as last year but doubt it even though its a massive game fior us.

hamster Posted 16 March, 2009 Share Posted 16 March, 2009 I remember the forum the morning after. I think there was a video posted on the internet involving a couple of our players. Then The Pearson Factor really kicked in and the future looked promising, some were even saying that relegation would be the start of a resurection on a scale never before seen.

LGTL Posted 16 March, 2009 Share Posted 16 March, 2009 Utter **** hole, but a cracking weekend and can't wait. Getting up there Friday afternoon with a few others and back Sunday.

wagon 84 Posted 17 March, 2009 Share Posted 17 March, 2009 We have been given 1700 tickets & i doubt we would sell those so any tickets remaining will be sent back to Blackpool & can be bought on the day. Thats from the Blackpool ticket office. So if youv bought a ticket before hand & its ****ing down then off you go, but if you wait till the day & its ****ing down then youv lost no money & stay in the pub.!

Thorpe-le-Saint Posted 17 March, 2009 Share Posted 17 March, 2009 (edited) Will saturday morning consist of being in that bar again as per last year? Even if it was a bit 'rammo'. Having to travel from Clacton is actually a LONGER trip the if I was travelling from home and I can't leave work till 3pm at the earliest on the friday! A stupid question for you mechanically minded out there: My little Citroen AX beast of a 1.0 (!!!!) has 93,000 miles on the clock...what are the odds of it dying on me halfway up the M6?

ladysaint Posted 17 March, 2009 Share Posted 17 March, 2009 They have a very big supporters club at the ground which we were very welcomed in last season. We are only going up and back on Saturday so wont have time to go anywhere else, but plenty of pubs within a short walking distance to the ground.

stkev7 Posted 17 March, 2009 Share Posted 17 March, 2009 Waterloo. Decent pub, us Northern Saints drank in there last season. The only downside was seeing those dirty Skates fluke a cup win against Utd whilst we all shouted abuse at the big screen to the bemusement of the locals.

saints triumph Posted 17 March, 2009 Share Posted 17 March, 2009 Brannagans on the Friday night last year was brill. 100s of ****ed up Saints fans having a good bop to a band.

yorkie Posted 17 March, 2009 Share Posted 17 March, 2009 I wonder if Stu will be ejected again this year? Oh how we laughed when he was frog marched out by Lancashires Finest!! There was a picture posted on here to commemorate and confirm it was him!!! The Waterloo wasn't bad except we watched the Skates win at ManU on their way to Cardiff. Landlord was a big bloke but seemed to enjoy the banter. Filled up with Blackpool fans towards 1pm but it was all good clean fun! It's a bit bleak on that temporary stand - and forget getting anything to eat at HT - fill up before you in! Stewards were absolute kn*bs - and the police not much better - well that's what Stu said in his defence!!! Not got a ticket and paid on the gate last year - doubt if they have a ticket office really. I bet Brett scores against us but won't celebrate with great enthusiasm - after all Kevin Philips is now at Birmingham. It's run down, but is a holiday resort so people are geered up for ***ats all p*ssed up so it's nothing new to them they get it week in and week out. Three points please lads - make my day!
