Ticket News FA Trophy 3rd Round Draw - Brentwood Town (A) - Sat 7th Dec TICKETS SOLD OUT

[shrimperjon]

Yep and the pub situation isn’t much better either. The high street must be a good 30 minute walk at least.

Very little else near the ground, from memory.

the ground is next door to the Brentwood Centre near a housing area. some pubs but not that close

 

[shrimperjon]

No pubs near ground at all. I'd imagine the Brentwood Centre will open it's bar next door. But from memory that place is awful. So it will be a long walk or a cab if arriving by train.

doubt they will. the bar is only open these days for events at the brentwood centre. the are nothing to do with the football club. the club has a bar but its tiny so wont fit many in there and more likely to be used for officials from the club etc

 

[Shrimper]

The limited tickets there are, season ticket holders first priority? People who have been to away games?

 

[Smiffy]

This is where a Fanzone at RH would of come in handy. A beamback would of been well supported.

 

[Maldon Shrimper]

The big question for the authorities is whether or not they can provide segregation for both sets of supporters.

 

[Up the Shrimpers]

The limited tickets there are, season ticket holders first priority? People who have been to away games?

If it is held at Brentwood with such a small allocation it would have to be a ballot of season ticket holders that want to go.
Can't see how you know who has been to an away game or not especially as the home clubs sell the away tickets.

 

[Yorkshire Blue]

Everyone who said the points system was a waste of time should be ineligible for an away ticket.

 

[Sherif H]

Better nothing to play for than no club at all. I, for one, will never take the mighty Shrimpers for granted again. I'm just happy to have a club to support, even if it's a mediocre one. Only four months ago, there was no guarantee of that.

There is a difference between losing faith and losing perspective of where we have been. My issue is the former. I don't trust us to beat anybody right now.

 

[Reynardine]

I remember our previous game with Brentwood being quite enjoyable! 13,107 at Roots Hall on 7th December 1968.

Little rays of sunshine, you and Tommy2holes

 

[Tangled up in Blue]

It won't be 10-1.

 

[Shrimperborn1957]

It won't be 10-1.

Are you that certain Brentwwod will not score 10 .

 

[Tommy2holes]

It won't be 10-1.

Not to us anyway

I think the car park there gets busy with people using the swimming pool certainly not a good spot for a large crowd, especially after the game

No, I think the nearest was on Ongar Road? Can’t remember what it’s called, but remember it was small and looked quite old fashioned. More towards the High St, than Doddinghurst Rd.

There is a ‘Spoons on the High St. though. And some other garish establishments (if a £20 cocktail takes your fancy)

Edit: After looking it up, the pub I was thinking of, is called Victoria Arms. There seems to be another pub down Ongar Rd too, called the Rising Sun. According to Google, both pubs are 20 and 25 minute walks to the ground… which isn’t exactly conducive for winter weather

The Robin Hood pub on Ongar Road is probably the nearest to the ground about 3/4 mile walk

 

[cerbera45]

a great tie

 

[Crowstone Crevette]

It was at Roots Hall. I’m sure a certain person on here will furnish you with all the facts and figures from that game! A memorable game in what many on here would surely agree was the most entertaining season in all my years of watching Southend.

Thought the capacity is only 1k? We will be entitled to 15% so about 150 tickets?

No I think it’s closer to 2k
