Well, I'm hoping that I can buy a ticket at the ground. I can think
of only two League games I've ever been to where this has not been
possible and don't see why Crewe should consider themselves special
enough to be an exception.

I've just had a look at the OS which says:

"Tickets for Southend's game against Crewe Alexandra will only be on
sale on the day.

Southend travel to Crewe's Gresty Road on Saturday, April 5 in the
first of three away games in April.

Luke, I appreciate the reply and the information. I didn't fancy going all the way to Crewe to spend the afternoon at the railway museum. It is funny that every Englishman I have told I'm going to Crewe has a story about Crewe and railway trains.
