What's it like as a ground?
How many we usually take? How many do we expect to take being last game?
Do we tend to make some noise from behind the goal or along the side bit?
But bored and just wondering

We'll take 400 at least, we all usually sit down and make an atmosphere in the seats at the side.

400??? Possible if its the supporters club weekender? Do they still do them? I remember going Exeter back in 2009, we stayed in caravan site on the coast 45 mins away...

I thought he was being sarcastic
In that case.. Was he right and the atmosphere is on the side and not being the goal

Even though falls (hopefully) on a Sunny May day be very surprised if we pull in 400 there, away last year so missed that one but the year we almost went down and won 2-1 (where Seabright pulled out a blinder of a save) we had less than 100, but ' end of season beano' and quite a few taking a weekend break there with the added thrill of pulling some decent results as of late especially away from home and it could turn out a fine time in Devon. Will say this club fires top marks on being away friendly with a decent bar and snacks concourse and the town close by is up there as a decent place to tour and indulge.

It was only one nil mate Scott Doe scored in about two minutes and we spent the next 85 minutes holding on.
Always remember that Centre half we borrowed from Barnet he came on for the last 5 minutes and each time he headed it in our box it went into their half ,at times this season we we have headed the ball out and it's just loped ten yards out of our box I often thought what's he doing now.
Left there that day which was grand national day thinking we were safe and would not have taken 100-1 about us being involved in a last day bid for survival, think we only got two more points after.
last season we had the game won and Lewington threw it in his own net in injury time ahhhhhhhhhhh.
Also think that was they day we got relegated from League one ,1 nil up through Vincelot and coasting only for them to score twice in the last 5 minutes.
Real mixed bag of fortunes down there in recent seasons,always a good day out mind

That's good enough for me. Nice to hear it's decent. Try and make a bit of noise hopefully as well.

Sussex/ Yeah that's right mate remember that well now, we all thought scoring that early would deem us but we hanged on and bagged the very valuable three points muddled that one with the Rotherham away result earlier on in the season, Jonathon Fortune (defender) was the one game wonder from the Bees.

Nothing to play for and we're in Cider country - can't wait. Was there for the 2013 Seabright game and loved it, hopefully the suns out when we go again as that terrace is an absolute treat in the right weather.
Exeter's beer garden is also great pre-match, hopefully we'll manage over 125 given it's the last away, last day and train prices were pretty reasonable not so long ago.

It is identical layout to York . Arnu would like it as if you desire you can pay a supplement to an old boy who sits on a stoll who then allows you to sit In the stand, no issue there about the cost of new turnstiles. As the terrace is an open one I expect that bloke and his stool has paid for himself many times over when there has been a heavy downpour
