Preston away

Post by Quickenthetempo » Fri Aug 12, 2022 10:24 am

Just looked on their site and it seems we will be given the full away end again.
After seeing segregation in their recently on a few occasions, I thought Preston might be getting more home fans on to permanently have fans in there.

Prices behind their other goal are 28 quid.

I don't think they've had Preston fans in there for a bit now. Boro definitely had the full end for the last game of last season.

Just checked and they had the segregation up for the Hull game but no Preston fans in.

Shame this is on a Tuesday as would have been great to have a sold out away end in there again. Can’t see more than 3k with kids being back at school etc

It will sell out easily if we win the next few.

Having to book the train as the coaches set off too soon for any school aged kids. apparently a 1.5 mile walk or taxi ride

It’s a fair walk. I think the last train is 10.15 ish so maybe a struggle getting back to the station for that.

Try the supporters club - they set off later and go straight there

It is a good half hour walk from ground to station

Last train seems to be 2226 which is probably doable as long as getting out of the ground isn't too bad.

That’s the catch 22 with a huge away end . Fill it or partly fill it a few times a season or phase in home sections ,which gets tricky when you get teams who can fill it !
Great ( one of my best ever BFC nights ) there when we sealed promotion to prem ( or virtually?) rammed full and as loud as we’ve ever been .

It also might get ‘held back’ by Lancs Police to get the fans on rather than having a couple of hundred Burnley fans stranded in the city centre.

Looks that way, there is usually a train to colne at 22:57 but on that day it is only going to blackburn and is a replacement bus from there

For the Friday night game we had to walk back as the 3 double decker buses filled up very quickly.

Either we walked back in plenty of time or the police held the trains up.

They will not let 1000 Burnley fans hang around in Preston.

I will be going on the train again.

Is their not one train going to York and one going to Colne on the slow train?

A few wins before then and it sells out no problem for me. Not played them for years.

The stand was bouncing that night - literally

I could still feel the vibrations in my feet the next day

That was another occasion at Deepdale not to forget, the others being May 73 when we won promotion and 1987 when we reached Wembley in the Sherpa Van

Yeah think we are being given the entire end. A lad I work with is a season ticket holder for North End and he said they were unavailable for them in the Kop. And when I emailed their ticket office they confirmed there won’t be home fans in there
