I think rather than the potential singling out of a little club or the arguable laughability of what the charge relates to in terms of a game of darts, it's more about the fact that we didn't fill in the risk assessment.

That's probably why no other club will get fined.  Because we're so bloody arrogant that we don't think the rules apply to us.  In the same way it's ok to sit together at home games (with or without a convicted fraudster).

Guess another 20k has been added to the £1.5mil then?

I think it's a concerted attempt to make an example of us to, quite rightly, deter anyone else from thinking they can get away with being lax.

Only we would be stupid enough to allow ourselves to get fined like this. It's so typical of our whole approach. Car sharing, ie being cheapskates, and darts practice? I mean you couldn't make it up!


I've wasted my life in black and white, a pathetic act for a worthless cause

The fans donated money at the start of the season and as usual the club have drunk it up the wall.  The fans deserve answers and Day should go now

Unbelievable, even small youth / scout groups or tiny country churches with a handful of members manage to risk assess their activities in order to operate safely.

The fine is sickening, the outgoing regime should hang their heads in shame, but thank goodness it wasn't a points deduction.  That would have finished us.

I wonder if Holloway will be invited to discuss his "darts"decision with his mates on Soccer AM? Somehow I doubt it!
