AMS Stand for away supporters.

I've recently been in contact with their club and having also browsed the information on their website, I noticed in the away fans guidance that we are expected to buy a ticket before we arrive at the ground.

It also says that there might be the possibility to purchase on the day, so that's left me confused.

It could just be for their own league matches.

Nevertheless, I would encourage people to buy tickets prior to arrival, just in case. No one wants to turn up on the day and be refused entry.

I've also been told that supporters who are receiving Personal Independence Payment (PIP) can bring a carer in free of charge. Presumably with proof.

My thoughts exactly 🤔

I was in a happy place when he was out... And devastated when we re-signed him.

An ex is an ex for a reason 😭

Finally an away trip I can get to by coach 🙂

I've just bought my ticket to ride 🎫 ⚽️ 🚍

I must admit that I haven't been particularly impressed by Crowther, but I'm sure someone will shout me down 😂

As for Van Lier, I haven't seen enough of him yet to form an opinion 😕

JR seems to be moulding the team to his liking 🤔

Plenty going on and much better information coming out from the club 🫣😯⚽

Another step completed in the saga of the club 🙂

"Every manager has always made Clunan the captain, so they must see something in him.......but I don't know what he's pointing at either!!"

I think Clunan is just carrying on from when he was here before. The finger pointing is just directing players, especially required by the younger players.

He has great awareness on the pitch, a role that is clearly needed judging by the number of times I saw players holding their hands out when they didn't know what to play next. That's a great giveaway for the opposition as they know who to prey on.

He's like a spider 🕷️ in the middle of his 🕸️

But man oh man ! What on earth was he doing in defence ? Sorry Michael, but you were terrible in that position. It prevented the web from working as efficiently. I think that's why supporters noticed the finger pointing. When he does it in the middle of the pitch, it's not so noticeable.

Thanks Spiv 🙂

There's an article on BBC News app, but I'm not clever enough to put it on here 😂

Mostly the same details as LN, but somehow makes it feel more serious to see it in national news 😏

I hope the idiots who think it's funny to act out see the article and change their ways. But I doubt it.

Perhaps one of you clever people could put it on here 😉

It's quite saddening to hear about such an unnecessary attack against the coach carrying our club players and staff.

Those of us who are old enough will remember the bad old days when violence, both inside and outside football grounds, was commonplace.

We certainly don't want to return to that. Ever.

See us lose ?  You mean there are people who will pay up to 20 quid to watch us lose ?

Sorry Ducky, I stand by my statement. And money doesn't come into it for these individuals.

Some people go to watch us fail at the start of the season, just so they can say how "rubbish" we are and that they won't attend another match while "X" owner is in charge.

Then sit in the pub every week all smug about predicting relegation/club going under etc.

As soon as we start to do well, however, they brag about "our" team and might even start watching again.

Fickle fairweather fans. But their money is just as welcome.

Happens at the start of every new season or change of ownership.

No reason to think it's any different this season.

I think the gate was also affected by being not only during the school holidays, but being over a Bank Holiday weekend, one of the busiest of the year.

Add to that the decent weather, the Norwich City factor previously mentioned, and the dreaded cost of living and I'm not surprised at the gate numbers.

Whilst I appreciate that some of those factors will be ongoing, I think all of that put together can explain the slightly disappointing (for me) attendance.

But I also believe the number was higher than it could have been had we not scored 5 goals on Tuesday. It will include those who were keen to see more and those who wanted to see us lose.

Who would be an analyst for a job 🙂‍↔️ Not me 😏

I have to say that after Tuesday's result I was expecting more of the same, but found myself disappointed ☹️

There were long periods of time when we clearly had the upper hand, but were unable to finish the job.

That said, their keeper pulled off some spectacular saves and definitely kept Darlo in the match. He most definitely earned his wages today.

And at the other end our "sweeper-keeper" was...you guessed it... lobbed whilst sodding around miles away from his goal 🫣😠

Exactly what several of us on here, and elsewhere, predicted. He was caught out a few times stuck in no man's land. If this method can be proven to work over time, I might be persuaded. But it shoots my stress meter way up high.

In the immortal words of Trump..."I DON'T LIKE IT !!!"

We had many opportunities when it looked like scoring was inevitable, but I do wonder if they felt the pressure to perform at home was just too much to handle on the day 🤔

You have to remember that most of our players had never set eyes on each other until a few weeks ago. That they've already come together as something resembling a team, is remarkable and to their credit.

The gaffer promised excitement and that's exactly what he's giving us. Hang on to your hats and bring on the next opponent 😉

Well I am partially sighted, so I'll blame it on that 🫣😎🙄

Sorry guys... nothing to see here...

Anyone know why we're the only team in the league playing tonight ? 🤔

And should we develop a conspiracy theory about it 🤫

There is a full programme surely ( would need two teams too Quinn) Sorry

Well obviously we aren't playing alone on a pitch 😉

We're definitely the only "two teams in one match" who played tonight, hence my curiosity 🫣🤫
