Sheffield United Away - 1st October

Folev the redFolev the red
edited August 2011 in General Charlton
Never been to Bramall Lane before, hopefully there will be a decent charlton turnout, and performance.

Anyone else thinking about going? If both teams maintain their current form then it could be the biggest game in the football league that weekend.

There are also some cheap singles, at reasonable times, on the trainline at the moment.

    These sort of games are the ones that will tell us if we've got the minerals or not. I'm in.

    I am going. As Carly said, this is the type of game that will tell me if we have what it takes.

    Trains already booked, however with the game being the day after payday I could do with buying on the day (this months wages will mostly be going towards Rochdale which I have a feeling will be an expensive one). Anyone know of our likely allocation and whether that means that tickets would likely be available on the day ? I’d imagine we’ll take a fair few to this top of the table clash.

    got train tickets for this two weeks ago, well up for this one as i've not been before. and sheffield is a good day out for a booze.

    if we're still in the top three when this comes round i should imagine we'll have close to 1k up there.

    There are three PL games and one Championship match already scheduled for TV that weekend, so I wouldn't have thought so.

    Planning car trip and overnighter. Premier Inn seems to suggest parking extra, perhaps not at hotel, anyone clarify or recommend other hotels?

    1 of me going. Never been to Bramall Lane so another to tick off my list. Expect we'll take a respectable amount if September goes as well as August did.

    The Prmier Inn closest to the ground has a big car park for customers.

    Us old un's remember a Leauge cup tie when Shef Utd were in Div one and us in Div 3 (I think). Drew 0-0 away replay at the valley, 2-1 up in extra time , I think it may have been Tutt in goal, ran out left goal empty and was chipped for 2-2. Second replay (yes it was that long ago). Went to Bramall lane was a three sided ground (Two ends one side) and on the far side was the county cricket ground. 90 minutes 0-0. Extra time 8 to go, they scored a goal at least 30 yards offside. Ref and lino looked at each other and gave it. They just did'nt want a fourth game ! That sparked mayhem, and led to big punch up outside. Remember Sheff hard core had their boots painted different colours to show their ranking in the hooligan firm. I must have been 18. So I am guessing at 74/75 anyone else remember this game.

    I will be going. This will be my first game of the season having landed from Oz the day before. Really looking forward to seeing some proper passing football again. It has been a while from Charlton. I have been to Bramell Lane on three occasions already and been stuffed every time. It must be time for retribution!!

    I'm going across from Grimsby on the 'Transpennine Express' . The journey takes almost twice as long as London to Sheffield

    Ralph Mline - was at the home game, still at school then. I remember it being a big game, having a first division team at the Valley. They played their full strength team in those days.

    Going to Bramall Lane again, always enjoy Sheffield. Nice easy walk back to the station.
