Off on holiday for 2 weeks today so booking travel up from London for the Lincoln game.

Is there anyone who is a ST holder who isn't going that would be kind enough sort me out a ticket?

Also, failing that - what do people reckon are the chances of being able to get one without a ST?

Thanks!

I can't see it selling out unless our results dramatically change.

Not going to sell out are we? They may actually bring more than 600 this year if they continue as they have started but we are talking virually doubling the current home gate to sell out the home stands....aint gonna happen.

I'll be in the home stands if I can't get a ticket, hopefully it won't be a problem.

Will the £15000 lost revenue be greater than the reduced police costs from a boxing day fixture?
I suspect their decision to request NOT Grimsby on Boxing Day was primarily based on Police costs.
Thoughts?

You're probably not far off there mate. Although I suspect the draw of a local derby means the extra home fans should more than cover the policing costs.

It was getting a bit dull every Boxing day at home & losing and NYD at yours & drawing.
Perhaps this year might be a bit different

Apparently they believe that we'll still bring the same crowd for Tuesday as we would for Boxing day (we won't) so they thought they might as well capitalise on Alfreton bringing more fans on a Boxing Day than they usually would.

I can see where they maybe thought it'd work in their favour but i'm 99% sure they're going to look back on the books and regret that one.

Yeh, you may still lose at home as well as losing money, it already looks like Alfreton are in for a relegation battle, so they aren't going to bring many if they're bottom of the division at Christmas are they ?

You may get the Christmas result you all so desperately want, but at what price ?

I actually know some of people who actually made this decision.  The requested not to play us on BD, as they expected to get us on another Saturday, especially as they thought the Lincolnshire Police would not allow a night match.

If their plan had worked, they would have gained a larger Saturday crowd away from the Christmas period from us and BD would have still been larger than say Alfreton on a Saturday afternoon in February for example.  They will probably lose out overall, now it is a night match.


I remember being pelted with ice by the Norwich fans during the Milk Cup match, do you?
