Should win this game in a comfortable manner. Mad dash for tickets i expect,as they won't give us too many......

Not a bad draw. Travelling time to Dorchester isn't too outrageous. And I suppose it's a potential live TV game on ITV - I think Dorchester are about 4th in Blue Square South so it may be viewed (by TV executives as well as a sizeable rump of opinion on ATD) as a potential shock. Add in the atmosphere that'll undoubtedly be created by a decent amount of support from the Green Army, and hey presto, Sunday lunchtime on ITV it is.

Last time i looked at trainline in the Summer (for the Pre-Season friendly Vs Yeovil Town),it was four hours each way from Plymouth. Just had another look and it is now 2 hrs 57 mins each way.

anyone know how many away fans they can hold?

We beat Dorchester 5-2 at HP in the FA cup second round in 1958.And didn't that pre season disaster against Yeovil take place at Dorchester?

Should get through but after that debacle against Stourbridge last year,it wouldn't be wise to count any chickens.

That reminds me. Is there a kind enfranchised season ticket holder who is willing to allow me use of their right to a ticket?

Will pay postage plus a couple of beer vouchers Very Happy

I'd much rather get through to the 3rd round of the FA Cup than win the JPT, so I hope Fletch the Wretched takes this seriously.

Ground holds 5k (15% of which = 750?), their record att is just over 4k.

Just googling as it's fairly easy to get there from where I am, plus I have family in nearby Weymouth I might be able to stay at too.

Come on Freathy...you know you want to.......come and join us for an ATD away day fansfest.

Knecht must know some good folk singers who'll play a Dorchester real ale pub and TCM Mike can bring the home made scrumpy.

And the scarf thing was such a good idea I've started knitting one already.
