Sep 11th V Hereford United
Just had news from Hereford that this game is being made all ticket for away fans. They're expecting a lot of us due to there being no league match V them since 1976. And also our rather impressive numbers going to Burton

The problem is that the away end at Edgar Street (the Blackfriars End)
has got a problem with asbestos and has been condemned. That's why the capacity has been slashed. That terrace is probably the worst terrace I have ever watched football from and hopefully we will get some seats made available.
HUFC have permission to erect a new stand at that end with work starting later in the season - it will hold around 1600 seats.
I saw my first ever United away game at Edgar Street in October 1977 - one of the maiden trips run by the London Road Club if I remember correctly. We lost 1-2 to a last minute goal.

Re:
You (and I as it happens) witnessed that rarest of events that night - a Bertie Biggins goal (albeit a pen so it hardly counts) for Oxford, one of only too during his rather poor stint at the Manor. Note I use the word 'witnessed' rather than 'saw' as my view of the goal he scored in and that of countless others was actually obscured by dear Wayne's girth."womble" wrote:from memory as the the last time i visited edgar street was in season 95-96 for a league cup tie against the yellows the away section was terrible . the oxmail supplement says it only holds 640 so could be interesting getting a ticket
