Was it that bad?

Was it that bad?

Driving round the m25 and then the seemingly endless stretch to Sutton still gives me nightmares now

Me too, that A217 is horrible,used it for years mores the pity.

I was in Sutton at the weekend visiting relatives and the A217 from the M25 is absolutely littered with speed cameras. It seemed like one every 100 yards! For those travelling down by train, West Sutton station is adjacent to the ground. However if you prefer, you can get the Northern Line to Morden and then catch a 413 bus which stops virtually outside. Must say the away end doesn't look too appealing but hey ho.

Tickets x 2 sorted

 

[Gremlin]

That's confused me even more. So why haven't we been allocated the Parkside Terrace!?

We have. That's on sale to away fans now.

 

[ColinMorrisWalksOnWater]

From a Sutton fan:

"The parkside terrace has been available to away fans all season.

Due to current safety certificates there’s no access for home supporters to that area of the stadium, therefore it’s been open to away fans for the majority of games this season (particularly when bad weather is expected such as on New Year’s Day against Aldershot)."

 

[Bearded Shrimper]

i'm in x2

As per a few posts on this thread already - this thread makes me realise we’re far too generous with our away fans placements when we get crammed uncovered terraces in return. Away fans next season need to be in the very top NW corner out the way.

 

[Maldon Shrimper]

Not sure what our allocation is but what ever it is we need to fill it after today's result

I think it's about 1,000. Pretty sure we will sell out.

Tried to buy tickets this morning and it kept kicking me out of the checkout process. Phoned the ticket office and they said that someone at Sutton had placed an SS postcode block on home tickets — as it seemed SUFC fans were buying in the home stands — but ended up blocking ALL purchases.

They said they’re rectifying now. Should work in around 10 minutes.

They did us one earlier in the season ,kicked our butts and i mean that literally , if i remember the posts after that game they are a big side and use there height and weight too. Bullied us the whole 90 minutes

Not at all. We dominated them for the majority of the game, especially the first 45 minutes (in which we could/should have been up by a couple of goals)

They got a goal from absolutely nothing - a mistake at the back from Harry Taylor & Adam Crowther - in stoppage time of the first half which gave them an undeserved lifeline.

Then 5 minutes into the second half, they take the lead through a ****-poor pass from Collin which lead directly to an own goal courtesy of Joe Gubbins. A second sloppy goal which was of our own making.

We pushed for an equaliser, (all whilst still having the better of the chances) and they caught us cold once again.

From memory I thought the general consensus was that we’d thrown the game away for once again not being able to A) take chances when they arose & B) conceding close to HT… something we had a habit of doing for a short period of time.

We owe them one.

Why would they be buying tickets in the home end of our allocation is still available? I’m confused with this as the whole ground is a **** hole….

It happens in every ground where our away allocation is standing only. Some people just can’t manage it, which is understandable.

Amazing how can go from looking so good to so crap in the space of a few minutes.

My boy's on a SUFC (non official) party boat on the journey up the Thames for this one, i'm driving there. We owe them one, come on the Shrimpers...
