Yeovil

[Franks Wild Years]

The first time I went, Hiney got attacked by a killer moth, with the wingspan of a CROW. And we drew.

The second time, we won, I had a nice SING-SONG with Carrot Cruncher, Tony Meolas Loan Spell, Mendoza and Edna K. But the day was RUINED when the THIEVING Yeovil stewards STOLE 'my' football.

There are massive, very slow queues for the refreshment (pasty) hatch, in the away end.

Getting out of the carpark is a MASSIVE ball-ache.

I was going to say, watch out for the BAT MOTH that nearly ate Kuipers.

It was funny. I was stood there with Hiney and his lovely daughter, who I think was only about 14 at the time. This MASSIVE flying MONSTER suddenly appeared out of the darkness, flying straight at our heads. As I ducked I heard this pitiful, girly squeal of terror.

Ticket bought...weekend away.. I'd like to go to forde abbey on the Sunday

Standing on the terraces will b novel

I can think of nothing positive to say about Yeovil at all. I only live 40 miles away but those are 40 long and slow miles to drive.

The train journey can take over 3 hours before finally depositing you a ridiculous distance from the ground.

And then it will probably rain.

not bothering then...?

last time the sun shone and we couldnt see a bloody thing against the glare.
Shit ground. Shit parking.

Just hoping for a result to make the trip worthwhile

Oh, I'm going.

With Bristol City having been relegated, it's my home game* this season.

(* - although I've probably got to the Amex in less time than it will take me to get to Yeovil.)

 

[Braders]

Tickets sorted , again I can echo all the above about going before and bar the terracing having not a lot positive to say about it , but it's a Saturday afternoon - it HAS to be football!

 

[nwgull]

I don't know why, but I'm actually considering making the trip from Manchester for this one. Anyone else?

All depends where you going from. Ive got my train for £24 with a railcard, splitting the journey at Southampton.

Brighton to Yeovil via Southampton return with a Network Card, booking on the Southern Website = £32.75

HOWEVER: Brighton to Southampton Central return with a Network Card (Booked on the Southern Website) £9.90 return. Also booked via the same website: Southampton to Yeovil Junction return, with a Network Card, £14.15. Grand total of £24.05.

Even without a Network Card, you can still save using the above split tickets.

Despite the good deal, getting from Yeovil Junction to Huish Park is still a pain in the arse......

 

[Charlies Shinpad]

Local game for us Devon Seagulls
Hope it doesn't piss down

 

[mune ni kamome]

Saw quite a few games at Yeovil last season as I was living down there for a year. I parked in the "home" car park every time, £2. Takes a little while to get out but nothing really to worry about.

 

[Horsham Gull]

Got my train for £30 return via Clapham junction with a railcard, no set train on the way home either

 

[Springal]

Bit O/T

If I have a Southern annual season ticket from Worthing to London, what does this give me? Gold card within Southern area / trains ? Do I have any other kind of railcard for other networks?

It can be a nightmare getting to the ground, but the train journey is decent in terms of cost, speed and scenery. Last two times we've been we just plotted up in the beer garden of The Arrow (?) pub and drunk a lot of alcohol with the sun beating down before walking to the ground. Add on the fact it's cheap match tickets, and I don't think its as bad an away day as some make out, especially if the weather is decent.

 

[Hungry Joe]

Going for the first time. Staying in town and making a weekend of it. Anyone got a rough idea of how much it would cost by taxi from town to the ground?

 

[Rugrat]

Is that an away pub or anyone pub?

 

[Jimmy Grimble]

Anyone I think. But the last two times I've bee there's probably been more Brighton fans than Yeovil in there.
