Thought Id start a new Thread for the new season!!
I second that! You did a sterling job.You did a good job last season, Cards.
We were there in the cup a few years ago, it will be a new experience for us all.
You're in for a right treat this season Mark! I think it was stood on the away end at Tamworth in our first season down here watching us lose 2-1 when it first really hit me just how far we had fallen.
Thankfully I missed our 5-0 defeat at Braintree very early in the next season as I was in Hull Royal Infirmary having my head carved open. I reckon that was probably better than being at Braintree that night!
PS. You did a great job last season Cards Fan so well done for volunteering again. I'll try to make sure you get all Grimsby figures, although they're usually not hard to come across if the other Mariners fans on here don't update you as they usually do.
You did notice we've got Gateshead first away game...Im really looking forward to getting to some proper football grounds as opposed to pre fabricated boxes that look the same on all 4 sides!!
Strange ground that was the slopeing pitch and entrance to dressing rooms reminded me of a ground much lower down pyramid. Was weird seen golf buggy at bottom or ground next to rugby pitch. Wont be back in a hurryOr Dover(?) where the bus can't get up the hill to the ground so you have to walk the rest of the way with equipment etc.
will be down next weekend, new ground for meI think this season if we actually have a good one we will have some great attendances, mind you though we had some great support at times last season and the season before that even though we were in a relegation battle and playing poor football.
I'll just leave this here.

(I did put this in the 2014/15 Away support thread but since you started a brand new one I thought I would put it in here instead)
Atmosphere allowed in the away end? Oh no hang on, Barnet have have left...my bad.So, whose away ends are the best for atmosphere? I'm looking forward to visiting a lot of new clubs this season, and I'm particularly looking forward to seeing us play Chester in a competitive game. I'm too 'young' to have seen us play them in the past! It's our first proper league derby in a long time.
Looking forward to Kiddy next Saturday, over 900 tickets sold already and they're not even on general sale yet.
Hopefully the caterers there will be well stocked up!
Doubt we'll sell all 2,100. 1,500 sounds about reasonable.

It'll be 'not great', then...If you bring 700+ and therefore make us open the East Bank section of the away end ours is pretty good. Otherwise its not great.
We did Likewise too.Yeah theres quite a few grounds have the feel of those below the confrence due to fact they aint segregated. At dover the fans changed ends in 2nd half
Your fans were bloody brilliant at Rovers last season -- Unlike your team I hasten to add.We did Likewise too.
