Dawlish Clarets

Post by Cornwallclaret » Fri Jan 03, 2025 11:49 am

Got our tickets for Plymouth away, playing them on a Wednesday evening has meant we’ve been able to get 4 tickets easily on general sale. I appreciate it’s a rubbish time and day for home based fans but has good for us Devon based fans to be able to get to an away game . Looking forward to seeing some fellow southwest clarets too UTC

So looking forward to it. I spent most of my childhood in Plymouth but no divided loyalty.

I'm hoping to be there. Don't finish work until 5pm and a two hour drive to get there. I thought I would be at work right next to J25 M5 but will be working from home and it takes me 40 minutes to get to the M5.

I will be there, coming from St Austell. Catching up with fellow South West Clarets, remembering our coach journeys up to the turf many years ago. Watching the game with Steve, Ian, Elaine and Nick will be just like old times. UTC

Is that our old ship mate Ian the salty sea dog by any chance?

I thought it was. I would have just scrolled on but you put Ian and Elaine next to each other and I know they were at Bristol City this season, so I thought it must have been that Ian. :)

Queens isn't too far away at all, there's quite a few Burnley fans in and around St Columb area

I know chedzoy, we are in Kingsbury Episcopi, but quite often walk or cycle the 5miles to Langport, very nice little town with cafes and pendras (chippy) the black swan is a decent pub, good food, drink and has sports on. The court yard is good in the nice weather also. Although Mike the landlord is a Leeds fan, suppose you can't have everything haha.

Yes great proper pub, I used to play football for Langport vets before my knees fully packed in with Ryan who runs it, top bloke.

Played cricket against Langport often in the noughties.. was a happy hunting ground back then...Black Swan was their post match watering hole...then the Black Smock for a few ciders on the way back.
Eli's was also a favourite of ours.
