Sutton Dilemma

Our attendances at local away matches this season have been fantastic.
Unfortunately results are not so good.
Lost at Boreham Wood.
Lost at Dagenham and Redbridge.
Lost at Ebbsfleet.
Drew at Barnet.
Lost at Bromley.
Total one point out of fifteen.
With this in mind should we stay away from Sutton or risk more of the same?

Yes we seem to have done better in the away matches a long way from E10

Your presence (or otherwise) will make no difference.

Staying away from Sutton will result in the game being awarded to Sutton, and Orient receiving a heavy fine. Surely better to go there, even if there is a big risk of losing. Not going guarantees a loss

Do I not like that. Interesting, though.

We overcame the televised matches curse and I’ve every confidence that we will overcome the large following curse.
I said we would win against Eastleigh if we reproduced the form against Halifax , and we did, so I am keeping my run going and I will repeat that if we reproduce our Halifax form we WILL win.

3 point penalty + fine. Though game would still have to be played as Sutton cannot be awarded a walkover as it would impact other teams chasing a play off place.

Well, if Travis, Teague, Edinburgh or McAnuff suggest that fans shouldn't go to away games, I'd stay away.
Until they do, I'll keep going.

I've only been to about ten or so away matches so far in my life, but I've only see one win (vs Brentford 2013). Beginning to think I'm the curse, and I'm going to Sutton.

Isn't Aldershot a local match ...?
