Decent numbers from Wrexham.

Rumoured around 150 Gulls at Ebbsfleet.

Rumoured around 150 Gulls at Ebbsfleet.

Difficult to tell as it was unsegregated, but the majority of Gulls stayed behind the goal in the second half....I'd guestimate at around 170+ taking into account there were a few in the seated areas too.

I still find it strange at this level that fans who have the opportunity to stand behind (or alongside) the goal they are attacking favour staying at the other end.

Some decent followings down here which I didn't expect. Suppose I bet get myself acquainted with this forum and start looking up where Boreham Wood and Ebbsfleet is.

Borehamwood is in Hertfordshire but within the M25 and next to Barnet.
Ebbsfleet is on the Kent side of the Thames estuary.
You will also get acquainted with the fact that Borehamwood are universally despised here.

The two estimates I've seen are 150 and 150-200, so we'll call it 175. ;) cracking turn out either way.

Looking forward to playing Alfreton in the FA Trophy First Round next season?

BW are unquestionably the most soulless football club I've ever come across.

No need. They are shysters and I implore all potential visiting supporters to boycott going there out of principle.

Go on then..eleborate! I know nothing about non league football outside of the local sides in the Evo Stik or whatever and North East Counties so know nothing about them!

They charge visiting clubs to commentate, record highlights, and have more than a couple of staff in attendance, even though their opponents offer them all the usual courtesies... menial little things which make them pennies but lose them friends. It's in a soulless London commuter town with no fans, no passion, and no character.

And I'll never forgive them for making our club lower themselves to doing THIS...

Tragic thing is that you can't even get your own back by charging them at your ground as they are that tinpot they don't even bring anyone.

They sound terrible. We've got them at theirs in a couple of weeks time.

At least I'll be spared the now dreadful Radio Tees commentary anyway..

What upsets me most about Boreham is the lack of alehouses. There's a Ukipspoons near the ground which has an atmosphere of McDonalds with beer and is rammed full of shoppers on a saturday afternoon and takes at least 20 minutes to get served at the bar.

Agreed. Franchise are worse, natch, but they’re not actually a football club so BW take the crown by default. Vile little place.

I don’t disagree with the general view about Boreham Wood’s mercenary approach. The ground itself is reasonable, the staff were friendly and you get a reasonable view of the action as compared with say Guiseley. Though on the day I went a 0-0 where the teams seemed to be competing to see who could kick the ball out of play the most, that might not be viewed as an advantage.

We went in a bar in Borehamwood before the match a couple of years ago. Went back there after the game and it had turned into a Thai restaurant/Karaoke bar with the highest concentration of them fake Louis Vuitton man bags I've ever seen in one place before.

I think the general thing to do is drink in St Albans 1st.

BW are one of the only clubs whose few supporters have earned the right to sing "no one likes us, we don't care". In a parallel universe, we would be praising a very small club for surviving at this level. I don't hate them in the sense I don't hate anyone who is irrelevant to me.

Counted 78 in our contingent on my first visit to Ebbsfleet on Saturday. Enjoyed our stop off in Gravesend beforehand some good boozers there.
Counted 115 in our segregated area at Chester. A first visit to the Bear and Billet and the nearby Brewer tap, both excellent and well worth searching out.
