1000+ on Sat!

Leeds, York & Railway away on Saturday!!!!
Have Knaresborough a game?
Possible 700 from Chester with 500+ from Harrogate!

Knaresborough have no game............

It should be a good game & if the Harrogate public turn up it should be a good atmosphere as well!!!
Might need all the turnstiles open Sat!

i have been druming up support all week for this one.... there will be a small Ripon supporters branch there with me

Going to be an interesting one, and not just from the "on the pitch" bit.

We've coped with a crowd of 3,000 and one of 1,500 very well (in my opinion) so we should not have too many problems.

Hello!

Really looking forward to coming to your place on Sat. Never been to Harrogate before but have heard its a lovely place. We are hoping to bring a decent crowd.

Do you have a bar at the ground thats open before and during the game (if you can take drinks outside)? and where is a good pub with real ales that will be showing the early kick off on the telly that i could go to before the match?

Good luck against Halifax tonight, we hope you smash em!

Hi Mate

Looking forward to a bumper crowd on Saturday. Our bar is open at the ground before, during and after the game but no drinks are allowed outside. There are 2 pubs about 500 yds from the ground in opposite directions, The Woodlands on Wetherby Road and The Empress on the Stray. Either are fine...empress I find more geared up for match days.

Enjoy your day in our lovely Town.

How many are you bringing ?

Martin

Would certainly hope for 500+. There was no game for us last weekend so should be more like 700+

Previous big gates used tickets to get in!
This one will be “cash on the turnstile” so entry will be slower into the ground!
Harrogate fans used to turning up 10 minutes before the game!
Will be worth turning up earlier than normal me thinks on Saturday!!!!!!!

And don't forget to enter the 50/50 draw - run by the supporters club for the first time!!!!

Any danger of the match being called off with all the rain forecast or have you got covers down?

Covers down and drainage fixed and nice eather almost all week too.. the pitch isnt perfect by any stretch of the imagination and we cant play our normal passing game on it ( were not playing long ball during mixing it about alot more) But itis not as bad as some bitter and uninformed away fans will tell you

Great news!don't want anything getting in the way of this day out... Cheers

Well, we won 2-1. I've heard the Chester supporters get a bit tasty when they have had a few. Really hope we can just enjoy a good game of football on Saturday, then all have a pint afterwards.

You will receive a very warm welcome from all at the club, and it will give you a good chance to have a look at our setup.

Congrats on the result tonight, its gona make for an even better atmosphere on Sat!

Chester fans seem to have got a bad rep because of a couple of unfortunate incidents which is very unjustified and by no means reflect on the quality away support, everyone will be coming to enjoy themseleves!

I'm really stunned by the result, as I was not expecting it. When it comes to booze, i'm always aware that it is a minority, but you will receive a warm welcome on Saturday, that you can be assured of.

We are a club that prides ourselves on being friendly, and welcoming.

Look forward to seeing you on Saturday.

REALLY?

Does anyone have any details as to what this is?

Another topic for next Thursday I think........

Chester fan here who can't make it over tomorrow. Any idea if Radio York MW666 or whatever it is are doing live commentary tomorrow? Thanks in advance.

666MW will have live commentary for the large majority of the game,

Bradford Park Avenue with the largest away league support so far this season @ the CNG!
But the 1,400 Southport brought still holds the record for the largest away league support for a Blue Square North game @ the CNG!

I think that vampire from “salem’s lot” played for them that season!!!!
