Could do with a Billy Bookcase... I can kill 2 birds with 1 stone

Given how quick the Oxford tickets went, and at those prices (virtually given away to U18s), I can see the 2k selling out in about a week.

I'd expect us to take 4k unless our form drops off.  One of the few grounds where there doesn't seem to be a limit on away fans, Coventry used to take 7k or something.

1500 max

fair few away games close together folk will prioritise this one’s shite

3000 minimum!  Unless we lose the next 2 or only win 1 in 4 or something.

No cheap trains will put plenty off. And it really is a shit away trip.

I had a look at league one attendances earlier, they don't have big home attendances, so there should be a plentiful supply if we wanted them.

Whether they would want to let us have a large number is a different matter.

We could win them all before we won’t sell 3k

Not a chance.

As shit as shit away days come.

1500 max.

Out.

Massive rail fare savings to be made if you fancy a pre-6am start. £19 Man-MK goes up £68 at normal times. (Using 2-together railcard) and £37-£48 after the game for the return.

Me and Jnr are in, booked the hotel already! 

Horrible place, crap away trip, i'd only go back for an absolutely crucial game. 

Out.

Said it time and time again. An away day is shit if you go with shit people and don’t know where you’re going and camp in the nearest spoons as many do 

Milton Keynes is alright with some good boozers. You just need to know where to go. 
 

anyway I fly to Thailand the same day so whilst I would have liked to go to this one I am out (thinly veiled) 

Oxford's arguably in the "crap away day" category, difficult to get to, etc (I've not been since being on travel club coach in 1984 so I can't really judge).   Unless a stroll around the university grounds pre-match is the attraction.   

I just thought it was a rare away game where there will be no restriction on how many we take, not sure when that last happened to coincide with a feelgood factor.

The quintessential modern football away experience.

"So out, I'm almost in"

Out.

Anyone not going is a shit fan.

Likewise, doing Oxford, Burton & Gillingham.

MK is the sacrifice to get some brownie points back.

Doing Cirque de Soleil at Royal Albert Hall.

Weekend will cost me a fucking fortune.

Last time we went we couldn't even get a taxi out of Gillingham after the match to sup elsewhere.  Bizarre place.  Top notch beer and burgers in the ground though.

Real supporters will be doing Oxford,  Burton,  MK and Gillingham

I'm half tempted now, I could be sat on my couch ready for masked singer if the trains on time

see what happens next week
