Like someone said above I think a few are just all Barnsley'd out.

When i was young it seemed like we played Fulham about 5-6 times a season, these days we always seem to be playing Barnsley and TBH we don't have a particularly good record 🤷

It's also one of the larger local allocations, so anyone who wants to go will have gone at least once over the last few years. Whereas Blackpool/Stockport etc. the scarcity of tickets make them more desirable.

3k is brilliant any road.

Is it general road parking does anyone know ?

They’ve only beaten us twice in our last 19 league games - both last season.

That stat seems unbelievable when they’ve got the better of us in cup games and playoffs in recent years.

A smidgen under 3k sold for tomorrow. Imagine there may be a few walk ups too

[only1swanny]

Anyone know what time the travel club leaves?

And we’ve only lost once in our last seven visits.

We parked on the streets next to the away pub/social club thing about 10 mins walk from ground. 

Plenty round there.

Let's hope that continues then!

Certainly not going to be easy.

Do you have a name or area for that, or will it be obvious on the drive in?  No idea where to park other than official away car park which I'm guessing will take ages to get away from.

Usually 45 minutes or so time they let the away car park leave . I've booked somewhere on just park for a fiver.

They close some roads by the ground so it can congested. But we have parked on the Metrodome before which is overlooking the ground just by the away end, which also has parking.  
 

It is a leisure centre but there is a bar for beer and food.

It's just off that big main road that takes you to the ground.

There's plenty street parking round there if you're early enough.

Parked here a couple of seasons ago easy enough and cheap enough. Cash only, think it was £5 max. Massive away pub so not to everyone's taste but the parking was spot on

Mad stats I think we must of slipped into a parallel universe because we all think we have a bad record against them in the past .
We beat them in the playoffs last time just to correct the last bit

I actually can't believe it is only 2 wins for them in the league in a load of years. Another Yorkshire club who seem to have the hoodoo over us in my opinion

Ah yeah we've done that as well for the play off game when went out.

It was bang on. The car park was full but we got down the side streets next to it.

Sure they actually advertise for away fans only as well.

[desperado]

Driven and coached it in last couple of games and done EDWMC

Training it in tomorrow. What’s the crack near station/in the centre. Remember a couple of seasons ago them not letting you in town centre pubs. That won’t be the case tomorrow will it?

[Krimzon]

Apparently against this lot we have won 18 drawn 18 lost 17 . 

The symmetry nonce in me says we get beat . 

[marple whites]

Decent record away in recent years since that winner on a Saturday tea time.

big end, good allocation, relatively close, so what if we have played them a bit.

come on tomorrow.

[TrickyTrotter]

Always pre book and park on Asda at the bottom of the hill past the social club.  £3 on one of them parking apps.

Just the bastard hill to walk up once parked.

Had no issues last season, free to go to any pub we chose near the station…
