The local plod clearly fancy applying the same heavy handed tact tics as they did last year but this time during the daylight hours. The timing is sh1te for anyone who has pre booked specific train tickets.
Booked tickets from Nottingham to Cheltenham to arrive at 12.59. All advance singles with no refund

The main discussions will have been between Cheltenham and the police as the home club with a little input from us on numbers and bits and pieces. I wasn't involved in any of it and an early kick off with pay on the day doesn't really make sense tbh.
On Police advice? They are idiots then, making it a 1pm kick off is crazy given the 4 hour trip.
I am glad I decided I wasn't going even before this.
What discussion took place? Perhaps are SLO can advise

flipping rediculous. what a joke. What has this game got that any others this season hasn't had? it's a dead rubber game, 8hr round trip to a excrement tin pot non league bound club... I'm 50/50 about going whatever kick off time is but I feel for the fans who have got train tickets in advance. Pathetic. What does this actually do except effect proper football fans? I really hope we take over 1,000 (really cannot see it myself) just to see how the handle it.

Firstly, thanks for all your good work throughout the season. Secondly, I feel that you should at least been informed at the earliest opportunity, as a courtesy. Would you be able to write to Cheltenham Town and the Police to enquire as to the reasons for this, as well as their reasoning for blindsiding you with the announcement? When Police and clubs do things like this, it really doesn't foster an atmosphere of goodwill and open communication, which ultimately makes the Police's job harder. I hope you communicate this to them!

Anyone who's already pre-booked train tickets should ring up Trainline (if you've booked through them) customer service. Explain the circumstances and they will change it for you. I accidentally clicked the wrong timing for my tickets for Accrington and was unable to change it on my app. So I rung them up and I managed to get a refund for the "non refundable" tickets.

I will be going but always was to be fair. Apart from the Chekatrade it would take something exceptional for me to boycott a game but this decision along with last seasons aggressive behaviour and over policing by the Gloucestershire Police makes me wonder if CTFC should get my money. Also once again the fixture computer or the Muppets that control it throw up a stupid distance for a bank Holiday fixture.

I thought it said tickets only available on the day and none being sold from "The BP".
