As I said on social media abs Tin Pot  3 days ago we were playing Thursday with a Sunday kick off at 4-15 .I had planned to book the train/bus to get to the game . Now we could be playing weds and or Sun /Mon  with a kick off on Sunday 12-15 ffs or mon  .If you live round the corner it's not so bad  but I live 200 miles away . That's why it will always be Tin Pot Conferance

Might just be easier to just promote us as champions to be honest.

If we are playing on the sunday why the hell does it have to be 12.15? Pain in the bottom for exiles!


Now based in reading, do I class as an exile yet?

If that's the case the police must be saying they can't cope with Hull and Town at home on the same day (Monday) so one of them needs to be changed and I can't see it being the Hull game! In which case Town on the Sunday which would suit the Bristol Teams.
The conference really don't care one bit about the fans, something that was set in stone as Wednesday/Sunday for one semi and Thursday/Sunday for the other can suddenly get changed at such a late stage not taking any consideration for fans who have changed work or booked trains etc. Another example being Lincoln v Eastleigh last weekend changing the kick off time with 6 days notice.

I did a blog on this for the Trust a few days back, but even my blog was out of date as soon as i wrote; the situation is ever-changing!    I don't see any excuse for this uncertainty; all very avoidable. If nothing else, they shouldn't have announced the dates and then unannounced them the way they did.     Agree with the post above; it shows a lack of respect for fans; there's not an apology, just an announcement like a statement of fact; its still up in the air

I guess the kick off times are what the police are disputing?

Conference tweeted that the only sticking point re the announcement is between GTFC & the local police.

Now in my world the job of the police is to protect people at events not stop them going ahead. Would a Sunday afternoon or a Monday afternoon fixture  really mean a break down in law and order??

I just can't understand the problem. In the past we had much bigger crowds and they went ahead as planned plus the police acted accordingly. Am I missing something is there some neo nazi march planned for that weekend?

My guess is that they're not happy about a 4:15 kick off on bank holiday monday. I think they're going to move it to 12:15 which doesn't bode well for me as I won't be able to get away from work as early as that. Very frustrating.
