york weekender!

[ELDERBEZZA]

Sadly missing this one as over in Lugo, Spain that weekend:( One bonus is its actually cheaper to go there than expensive York:doh:

[Valiant Haze]

Booked for overnight stay and it's adjoined to Weatherspoons. That's breakfast sorted

[Shropshire_Valiant]

6 of us going and staying the Saturday night (only 4 going to the game though - 2 are non-footy mates, not even s**t-fans).

 

Anyone got an idea what our ticket allocation (if, indeed, all-ticket) will be?

Holds 2000 behind the goal + 300 seats. My guess is it will be pay on the gate, can't see a problem as we won't take that many even if we're up there!

If we're still in a strong position and playing well I can see 2000 making the trip. We took almost 800 to a cold and depressing corner of Kent, so a big following to an interesting location like York is achievable, after all, it's only a 2hr drive in car and the weather should also be on the turn by then. I'd be surprised if this isn't all ticket.

Looks like we could be in for a good following if this thread is anything to go by! 500+? I suppose we haven't been to Bootham Crescent for a good few year? Early 90s I'd hazard a guess at, so will be a new ground for a lot of fans(me included).

 

Looking forward to it as I had 2 or 3 friends from college go to uni there but never made it up to see them in the 3 years they were there for a night out! Meant to be good!

 

As has been said York has some good little boozers and is a great oldy worldy city. Did the Jorvik museum last time I was there, there is also the National Railway Museum if your into that sort of thing for a bit of culture!

 

I wouldn't be surprised if we took at least 1,000 to York, maybe more.

 

We took 1,200 to Fleetwood for a night match earlier on this season plus 1,000 to Northampton which are far less attractive places/weekends than York is.

 

Expect a bumper following for Torquay next month too!!

York is a far better weekend destination than Torquay.

I think we'll take 2300 comfortably if we are top 2 mate. New ground for many of our age I guess, as well as the added attraction of it being a decent city.

Never been York before but heard lots of good things about it.

 

However having been Torquay for half-term breaks with parents for a good 20 years I'm a big fan of it and the surrounding areas. Many fond memories. Can't rate it highly enough.
