Morecambe away
Just a simple poll to see what kind of numbers we should expect at Morecambe because technically (not being negative) we could actually be relegated there if results don't go our way .. Who's up for it? It's the last away day of the season! A Few pints, fish and chips and maybe a bit of Lancashire sun .. Although it's unlikely
Dreaming Of Promotion ..

I'll be there mate, was hoping we'd be safe by now as now i'll have to go on holiday a day later than i'd booked for but this is important. I don't know about the fish and chips mate as i'll be on the bog all game if i had those but i'll be there offering my croaky singing voice! COYY!! We should be allocated the terrace for this one then shouldn't we?
Strangely enough it was Pope Gregory the 9th inviting me for drinks aboard his steam yacht, the saucy sue currently wintering in montego bay with the England cricket team and the Balanese Goddess of plenty.
I will be there, an a***hole of a journey but not a game to be missed. Hoping we arrive on the back of 3 points against Barnet, hope even more that 3 points at Morecambe will see us safe.
I would be surprised in any event if we get more than 300, the distance and brand of football will put off so many who although I am sure wish they were, simply won't be able to justify the expense.
If the worst is to happen, I would prefer being relegated at Morecambe than at Plainmoor. The fans who are there would be the ones who want to be there and I think the atmosphere would be so much bearable than the vitriol bound to be evident at Plainmoor from people who, I am sure, turn up just for a moan.
Either way it is going to be another massive one, and if you can get there, do.

A long, long way to go. Many will make the decision based on the result of the Barnet game, and other results around us.
Free coaches would be nice.

I don't see why fans would wait until after the Barnet game DY. Even if we lose we can still stay up and then the Morecambe game will be EVEN MORE VITAL as it will be a must win or we're down. If we beat Barnet then the Morecambe game will still be vital as if we win up there we shoudl be safe. So regardless i think it's the endgame and we all should get up there if we possibly can no matter what happens in the Barnet game.
I think you're idea of free coaches is a superb one and someone should go to the club about this. All it would cost them is the cost of the hire, a coach driver or three for the day and the fuel. If they refuse to do this simple gesture for the sake of the club and the fans who DESERVE a little bit back then they can bloody well p*ss off! Cracking idea Devon although we'll probably get someone coming on who says we'll lose some money and it's impractical blah blah blah. F*ck impracticality! The club can do this one last thing for us and it bloody well should.

I am going. 5.50am train from Aberdeen to get to Lancaster for midday. Few hours with my best friend from uni, watch the game and then a 5.50pm train back to Aberdeen. Altogether it's five trains, two replacement buses and probably two more buses between Lancaster and Morecambe.

It's a nope for me, do not finish work until 8am Saturday, if it was a tad closer would have driven and stoped over, just to far to risk it.

Robbotufc ,
The problem will be that the last three games of the season we will be playing for pride alone as Tuesday night is our Cup final at Bradford where even though our form is good I will be very surprised if we get a point let alone three. Our last two home games have been against York and Wimbledon and have been matches where the opposition, although lowly placed have really given us tough games and Accrington will be no different. How we get on Tuesday will IMO determine how we do in our last three games. If we win Tuesday then we will be in the position where winning the last three games could well see us in the Play offs so there would be something to push us which we have had since Xmas in trying to avoid relegation.Losing on Tuesday will leave us in a position where we have nothing whatsoever to play for which could work in both yours and Accringtons favour.
I very much hope that you are safe by the time you play us.

I'm thinking about Morecambe, haven't been to half as many away games as I did last year, my last one was Rovers away. Morecambe away is a possibility!

I normally do one long trip a year but unfortunately this season I haven't. My record up north is three defeats out of three (Bradford 1-0 playing against 10 men, Rotherham 3-1 at the Don Valley and the Stevenage final) so maybe it's best if I stay away.
Rovers will be my last game of the season and hopefully (unlikely) we'll be out of trouble by then.
