A Dover fan on the football forum recons they had 42 in the away end, but there were issues with ticket scanners not working properly, 25 is probably the number that actually got scanned in.

There was defo more than 25 dover fans.


I saw something on Twitter where a Dover supporter got the train up and when he got to Lincoln he had to get a taxi to BP as his train was cancelled, it cost him £120, some dedication that !

Im not sure there were more than 25 dover fans. Are we perhaps forgetting that we opened the Osmond to home fans?

would make no difference to hmrc what the actual attendance was. Its how many were sold and the income received that matters.

They did have block D in the Osmond for sale on line to both home and away fans for a short while online. . So if any Dover fans purchased tickets for block D they would have been moved to the corner block with the rest (25) of the Dover fans.

This probably what happened.

I counted 40 fans at kick off in the corner but I think some were staff as in Dover tracksuits

My Dad and I are season ticket holders and with us both walking with sticks the stewards let us through the door rather than the turnstiles. We show our season ticket cards but they don’t get scanned, there’s quite a lot of others come in like this which will make a difference? I must say we are very grateful for this treatment as my father would struggle with the turnstiles.

Some of those in the away section could have been Dover  staff/players partners and friends on ‘free tickets’ etc and maybe they don’t count, officially. Not sure.
