Trains may be an issue with bus services replacing trains both into London on the Marylebone line but also from Rochester to Gillingham as well.
It could put a few away fans off, as well as home fans.

That was “boing” BTW, not Boeing as some, perfectly logically, might have thought. It’s something I recalled from the time we played WBA at Adams Park. I think their fans - one of whom came back several times and stood with us (pre FA stand) - used to jump up and down chanting “rhubarb, rhubarb, boing boing.” I may have got that wrong of course and I look to @ChasHarps (he of encyclopaedic recall) to correct me if necessary.
Rhubarb chant made an appearance at the Lincoln game which was nice to hear.
Gee thanks @OxfordBlue ! I really did “choose” the wrong game to miss.
I believe that WBA fans still do sing "Baggies, Baggies, boing boing" while jumping up and down. Upon facing them, the Wycombe fans readily adopted the song, changing the words to "rhubarb, rhubarb, boing, boing". I think...
I can just picture you jumping up and down singing with the yoof @micra !
Rhubarb!

Apologies @NorsQuarters. Having made my attendance forecast on Tuesday (and having just returned to the thread because I couldn’t remember if I’d done it!) I’ve just seen your post re boinging. I fear the only way I could jump up and down now would be if some random muscular person were to grab me in a bear hug (as is occasionally witnessed - at Torquay, for example) but I’d prefer to keep both feet firmly on the ground (physically and metaphorically). I’d be happy to do the rhubarb bit though.
4766 with 569 from. Us
