So where do you fancy going for an away game next season ? A day on the English Riviera or the glamour of Broadhall Way ?

    Difficult to say really. 

    Of course a weekend in Torquay in August or early Summer is great but we've been here with Blackpool, Brighton etc. it will be in November and it is a trek.

    On the other hand Stevenage can be done straight from work on a Tuesday night within half an hour.

    Both welcome additions bearing in mind how Northern our league looks next season, Stevenage just edge it for me on convenience.

    With petrol prices as they are Torquay is out of the question for me.  Stevenage.

    Gotta be Torquay.
  • Got to be Torquay - we've not by beaten by a team with a 'Q' in the middle of its name for years.

    Torn between Stevenage and
    Torquay today...could do without the 40 hour round trip to Torquay but
    would get the chance to visit Basil Fawlty

    Having the play offs at Old Trafford is poor.

    I was wondering how this works with Club Wembley. Aren't they promised a certain number of matches?

    Why can't they change the venue once you know the teams involved .

    Last week Luton Wimbledon could have worked better at a London ground , today would have been better staged in London or maybe Cardiff  .

    Less than 30,000 and Old Trafford looks empty.

    Nice and quick train ride. Good on them. 
  • Wahey! Easiest Charlton game for me to travel to ever (after Bedford away). Congrats Stevenage!

    Another definite away to add to the list for next season then.

    Well done to Stevenage, been doing great things since 2007. If i'm right they've had a Wembley final win in 2007, a play off semi (loss) and another Wembley final win in 2009, league title in 2010 and todays play off win 2011.

    Wouldn't bet against them having a decent go at the play offs next year.
