Well guys I havent done an away game since I lost my boy, I hadnt really been until this season as it was just to painful it was "our thing" my younger son started taking an interest, and this season is the 1st season Ive really attended, although I have had to leave early a few times, tried to explain to my younger son but he doesnt understand.. my lads been wanting to do an away game but I was dubious he would like the atmosphere noise etc...but he is absolutely a Rover and has loved the recent atmosphere at home, so I will be taking him to Gillingham tomorrow, its strange having my younger son there cheering away I sometimes have to do a double take, but it does feel good to be back in the stands now and I know I only pay for 2 tickets but it feels like there are three of us singing!! see you all In Gillingham!!!! RTID!

Bald Rover, hopefully see you there tomorrow. You're an inspiration, mate. Hope the young man enjoys his awayday.

As a regular awaydayer l have mixed feelings about Saturday. My Xmas present from 2 lads was to see my most absolutely favourite band New Model Army in Leeds on Saturday night. So given the distance it would be impossible to do both hence extended family watching the game on I follow and then in to Leeds for beers and music
