would you come all the way down to Withdean from Liverpool for a meaningless game for them and a shit expensive view?

I would actually. Whenever we were in the same division as Blackpool when the fixtures came out I always looked for first game, last game, boxing day and when we were away to Blackpool. Surely it must work the same for the northerners (obviously substituting Blackpool for us or Charlton/Orient/Bournemouth/Southampton - at a push)?

But would I go on the supporters coach?? Not a chance in hell! I guess your average supporters club traveler probably cares about actually witnessing some of the football given that you aren't allowed a stingo on the bus?!? So in which case no it's not surprising people don't want to travel.

I've always wondered who would actually want to support Tranmere Rovers? Presumably only Birkenhead nationlists. What sort of crowds do they get?

I used to work in the Liver Building (Google it if you don't know what it is). Most of the people I worked with there were from 'across the water', The Wirral. They obviously were Tranmere fans. One thing about them was that despite sounding exactly like Scousers they hated being called Scousers as they felt very strongly that Liverpudlians were 'common'. Always used to amuse me that.

Well, their right to their snooty opinion would depend on exactly where 'across the wtaer' they were from!

if they were from Caldy, or Irby or somewhere, fair enough, but if they were from Birkenhead, it would be a bit rich!

It is ruddy annoying that we are not able to sell tickets to home fans for the away section.

Surely it would be easy to keep us apart and allow the home fans to access South Stand facilities, whilst keeping us away from the pitch. I sat there for the Portsmouth gamer and I am sure there are some little gates at the front to allow access.

I forgot to buy my ticket today and it is now 'sold out'. My fault entirely, but... :tantrum:

Of course, there will also be plenty of empty seats all over the shop.

There's usually someone in the pub before the game with a spare. :smokin:
