here here..   its 135 miles from my place but have to be at the first game of the new season.. Hopefully Lee will have the lads all fired up and we can get into the Yorkies... Lets keep positive folks  New Team new manager new hope

Lets keep the faith and get behind the lads from the off... Yeah there will be hiccups on the way but I have a great feeling about the next 9 months..

Looking forward to this Saturday

Cmon you Red, white (and sometimes black) Alty boys

signs are bad, remember last time we played harrogate on opening day.

On the plus side trains every 30 mins and possible drinking at Huddersfield and stalybridge stations both purveyors of fine traditional ales.

i am looking forward to it already

I'll be there but I'll be honest, I'm struggling to motivate myself for this one. I was hoping that when the fixtures came out I would get really excited but having read the names of some of the teams we have to play I'm not feeling it....yet.

5 0 away win at Harrogate and I'll be back

Hmmm, last time we played them I was living in Leeds, bit more difficult this time. No return flight back to Dublin same day from Leeds so would require overnight stay unless I try flying back from Manchester.....flight times aren dire also, would mean leaving home at around 03:30 and getting back about 01:30 on the Sunday, lot of hanging around without being able to drink as car at airport......unfortunately, think this one is a non-starter.......will have to pick more convenient fixtures

Leave Kings X at 10am, change at York, arrive Harrogate 1243. Two hours in the bar before KO, perfect. I think you can count on a good London Alty turnout for this one.

Yes,its almost as easy trip by train as from alty, we will be on the 9.42 from oxford road and with a change at leeds your in harrogate for 11.30, Only £19 return aswell!

Considering its such an attractive localish fixture that coupled with at least two lots of birthday salutations being included in the day out,I think a large number of gents in this area will be sending memos to the 'minister for the interior' to free thier diary for that day!

I'll be there with my youngest and my red and black top.  One of the closest fixtures for me.

Just try keeping me away ! I'll probably bring the cab across and head straight back to work when we've secured the three points.

Oh, all right then, I'll watch the other 75 minutes as well  :D

Its the liverpool- scarborough train,so one would assume it also stops at,and would be easier to get on at piccadilly,Its probably scheduled as 945 from piccadilly,ill check it out but indian call centres seem to love advising you to travel from oxford road where possible!

Considering its your birthday,matt taylors 30th and on the proviso of birth greg wetting his new arrivals head,that train could arguably be renamed 'the wretch express' considering those that have already said they intending to travel

I feel that it is very important that you are also now aware that you are now unable to smoke on the platforms or in the grounds of any railway property.

If you CONTINUE to do so, you will receive a public address announcement via the station's tannoy system to request you to stop.

If you refuse to do this,  the British Transport Police MAY be called to evict you from the station or issue you with a fixed penalty ticket.

Please consider this before inhaling tobacco based products on their premises.

Please note that there is NO SMOKING either in the Carol Nash main stand AND also the Dunne & Gray family stand!!!!

ENJOY THE GAME!!!!

London Alty booked on. We've had to get the Megabus up (9 quid from Kings X to Harrogate) as a day rtn on the train would have been 88 quid from Ldn even with the group save prices. Bloody rip off! Train back though to toast the first 3 points of the Sinnott-Tolson era.
