Having not been able to get to the q&a are there plans afloat to increase the capacity anytime soon and how? No

For those who aren't subscribed to SUFC's excellent newsletter (and you really should be), the consequences of Saturday's crucial fixture are as follows:
If we finish 3rd our home play-off game would be on Sunday 6th May
If we finish 4th our home play-off game would be on Thursday 3rd May at 7.00PM
If we finish 5th our home play-off game would be on Wednesday 2nd May at 7.00PM

Obviously cricket is his first love, nothing wrong with that but yes it is amazing how much he has to say about something he's clearly not that into. I think fishing is his first love! He is certainly very good at it.

He is certainly very good at it. I don't like fishing Stewart but i know a man who does.He tells me that he goes back to the same place week in week out year after year and throws out the bait.Amazingly (he says) the same fish have a bite every single time.After he throws them back they still always come back for more.Hundreds of clever fish don't come near but he always manages to catch the same few.

Anyway back to the point of the thread. I don't want to be coming down to GGL on Wednesday or Thursday so i really hope the team gets at least a point .I can then sit back in my armchair and watch our future opponents !

Off to the airport, not looking forward to the 13/14 degree drop from the balmy continental weather. Still, if it’s a shoot out between standing in the drizzle after a mid-morning pint of ale or two, watching the Us complete their finest season, or getting a bit of sunburn while downing local rosé, there’s only one winner.

So, here's a story. Originally I could go to the game and buy a ticket. Then because of work I couldn't. Now I can go. I'm assuming the ship has sailed and I won't be able to attend. If that's the case I will be following rather closely!

Nice to hear from someone who's got their priorities straight. Come on you U's!!!!

I believe when we famously beat Aldershot in 87, there were 3,419 people at that game. That's when we had a capacity of 8,000. It certainly didn't feel "half full" that day, and I think it's the only time I can think of where there police horses in the ground and even with segregation (which I think we had) there was trouble. I'll add a bit of context to that trouble, it had also been Millwall vs Leeds in an 11.30 kick off that day in a heavily policed match, and quite a few (from both those teams) made their way down to Sutton in the afternoon to get their fix. Many from Aldershot were happy to oblige as well.

Normally are games against Aldershot have been trouble free. They seem to think we have a Chelsea contingent in our ranks looking for trouble. Hmm.

Great game. Amazing to get third. Have to say I thought we missed Eastmond and Aldershot looked the better team. We didn't need to go all out though so perhaps that was at play. Great atmosphere.
