To replicate the 3-1 drubbing we handed them when bottom of the Championship. What a Tuesday night, won a poker tourney day after in Stoke, stayed the week in a hotel then saw us draw 1-1 at the Potters. Good memories!

 

[johnlattimerssponge]

Someone different away maybe Tonbridge or Worthing would be interesting.

Not Kettering though as Ranger would probably revert to his Sheffield United away form.

 

[Blues4LifeDan]

No Phil Brown's Kidderminster fortunately. Couldn't take losing to him.

 

[Bearded Shrimper]

probably coz they're far too big to be a 3rd division team, big money American owners, Tom Brady = chance of money, and even TV coverage

yup I was there. Stayed in a Travelodge near New Street. Came out the ground with a load of Brummies wanting Steve Bruce sacked for losing to little, bottom side Southend.

Gower and Freddy *sigh*

Nailsworth is a nice place but the ground is on top of a hill hopeless to park and no pubs

Sizeable car park next to a charming stadium,scenic location—street parking too—very hospitable people,one whole side for away fans—good pubs down in village . I’d love to make a 3rd visit.

Great night that was, I think Matt Upson was Bham centre half that night as well but we were superb and ran him ragged

And all after Clarkey’s horrendous OG too. Gower was fabulous that evening.

 

[choggy]

Another vote for Brum away...and for the BBC to show it live for even more money.

 

[Shrimper]

Looking at the teams:

Kettering, Scarborough, Harborough, Horsham, Weston-Super-Mare, Chesham at home would be fine

Or someone like Birmingham, Charlton, Orient, Reading away

 

[Smiffy]

Biggest side in the draw at this stage. An away game there would probably see 12,000-15,000+ and a decent payday for us.

Charlton would also be decent.

We will end up with Rochdale or Oldham away anyway

 

[Strykr]

Horsham please

 

[RobB11]

Oldham away you wait

 

[Suffolk Shrimper In Dorset]

Weston-super-Mare away please. Thank you

 

[Blues4LifeDan]

Oldham away you wait

Or our beloved Morecambe

 

[Roger The Alien]

Mansfield, home or away.

Why want them? They have sh*t fans.
