Long way together email

168 doesn't sound too far off for Charlton and Brentford combined...

No distance on mine, which Aer Lingus would disagree with, so it has to be away games only?
Either that or is a fairly crude calculation on postcodes which clearly I don't have.

Silly old bat
The club has done the fans a great service with this email. The season has finished so there's not much news. Fans have missed having something to moan about, so the club has provided the platform for a good old whinge.

1895 for me. I thought the email was a nice touch.

It's home games too, my total is about 400 miles and I've only been to the amex this season. I live in Eastbourne and missed a coyote of matches due to illness so that calculation is about right.
I haven't had an e-mail. Perhaps they don't believe my 600 mile round trip to home games!

2177 for me, not including the few POTG's that I did.
Saw some pretty poor games this season !

154 for me.
Although most Saturday mornings/Friday nights I travelled down from Hyde where my boxing gym is based so actually looking at about 250 miles each way, per game!

565 miles apparently. That's more than I expected.

Big Brother Barber is watching you!
He is either visually impaired or looking through rose c****ed glasses.
Mine is as accurate as a YouGov poll.
Apparently not!
FWIW, using a 'relatively easy and quite accurate' method, I reckon my own '891' should read '3,305'

It is as most have said a simple formula.
You take your seat no, add it to your post code then divide by tan(253/(|(599-log(34)^31)|) x no of games and this will give you the distance in KM x 0.621371192 and that will give you miles travelled..easy

Yes, this irritated me. An instruction to use American spellings has probably come from the, um, CEO. After he met with Peter Godfrey.
My distance-travelled was about 100 per cent out and strangely different to my wife's.

Goes to show the wide range of views ... I think it's utter crap
Some marketing fella comes up with a daft idea, likely spends days and days figuring it all out and then gets it all wrong
They do this in the name of 'personalisation' and think that we will regard this as the club talking to me as an individual
If the club are going to write to me at this time I'd much rather it would have been from TB or PB and saying something along the lines of 'thanks for sticking with us, we didn't do as well as we should have but we're working flat out to put it right, we really want you to get behind us next season etc etc.
Something from the heart, that felt genuine. I wouldnt give a monkeys if everyone else got the same thing
Grumpy when I should be asleep
The club was persuaded to send a chairman's letter to STHs a year or two ago. Unfortunately it turned into a routine sales spiel with a tendency towards self-congratulation, printed on transparently thin paper. Paul Barber really really doesn't get it.
