Views from the Sieve

I am not one who normally criticises the Club for decisions they make or things of that nature...............BUT, I am quite surprised that there has been no ticket information or details about the Play Off games from the Club yet.

I am aware that the final positions are not yet confirmed, but we know we are playing FGR and we know one game will be Thursday night at 7pm and one game will be Sunday at 3pm. The SC have managed to put together an either or plan of action with regards to coach transport so could the Club not have done the same with tickets??

I am sure details will be in the programme this week but as an ST holder in the seats, I don't yet know if my ST voucher will be valid on the night (along with a cash payment) or if I will need to pick up a ticket for the game in advance to claim my seat etc. I would also say we are missing an opportunity with regards to floating fans once again. We all know when the games are going to be, but there may be more casual fans who don't, and should they flick on the to the website at anytime they would not even be given any clue we have qualified for them!!

As I say, I think the Club gets a lot of stick over some things which is unwarranted, and I am sure there are many who would disagree with what I have said above, but am quite surprised about the lack of information and lack of promotion of the two games.

More than likely we will be at home on Thursday which is less than 6 days away and nothing. I can't make it to the club after tomorrow so if tickets go on sale I will have to chance that I will get a ticket over the phone but with likely random opening times even getting to call it is a pain in be Harris.

Once again it's a failure not to get something out there Yes we have a game tomorrow but it will only be the normal fans that bother for that one, get promoting this one early. You can put an either or date on the ticket surely?

Ticket information will go out later today but we have.been trying to resolve issues with the league and FGR.

Thanks Simmo

With the home game potentially on a Thursday and, wanting to increase the attendance for a televised game, the club tried to change the prices to be similar to those they charged in the FA Cup ties this season.

unfprtunately the Club were reminded by the league that Play Off Rule - Appendix B financial rules 2.1 is in place to stop clubs changing their prices.

Hence the delay in announcing them whilst they argued the benefits to all of cheaper admission.

Well done the club for trying. Glad to see us trying to increase numbers just a shame league rules get in the way. Is their a split on gate money?

Putting them in the Family stand for the Thursday is right, would encourage as many as possible to take a seat in the TBS specially at £2.50 a pint! Suck that ball in the net.
