I think 300 is a conservative estimate!!

Definitely hoping for more!

A few of Yeltz Bar FC will be attending their first away game!

Estimating our following for this game is tough, we've taken 100 - 150 to many away games this season, with so much riding on this game it wouldn't surprise me to see us take 300 or so.
Agreed it is difficult to estimate, but as an indication our little group of 'old gits' totals 7. I tend to go to all away games, another 2 of us about 50%, but the rest haven't been to an away game since we played Team Bath in the play off final. However this Saturday is a 100% attendance :o
Also I was talking to a couple of our old supporters in the town yesterday who have only been to a handful of home games and they are both going along with two visiting Americans !!!

Although Raiden does not know we are heading for the George and Dragon should not run out of ale as AVFC is at wedding.

Pistol tell your mate to make sure they have plenty of staff (Sheffield had one on !!!) and some food would be good cobs, rolls and pies maybe even chips.

I reckon with the coaches, trains, cars, players families and glory hunters (all welcome of course) 500 Halesowen fans.

Did enjoy the food in your ground last season only complaint they rushed the chips because of numbers waiting and a bit hard.

At the risk of installing a cloud of doubt over everyone's heads, I will be in attendance, along with Big Mick and his brother, Dick, from California.
Having successfully purged my jinx tag at two winning away games thus far, I feel that I can be allowed to make it three without a feeling of dread!
We will do it!!
