Home end it is then...

First the early kick off decision on a boxing day match, then this absurd limiting of tickets for no apparent reason. Ridiculous.

There’s a lot of guilty parties in this decision - police forces, authorities, former club staff misrepresenting the fanbase to those previously mentioned - but the NL fixture planning has to burden some of the blame as well. This was always going to be well attended from our POV but also putting it on Boxing Day would always add more to the number of those wanting to go.

Even away fans going in the home end will be tough.

Their ticket sales end on 12th December, no more sales after that date and purchasing or collecting tickets need to provide proof of address.

It really does stink

Errr, no. Boxing Day is traditionally for local matches and Halifax is one of the most local in the league, so it looks like the NL fixture setters got it right. It’s just the local officials that got it wrong.

Never mind the football club losing out, the Halifax economy loses out.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

This is the same police force that deal week in week out with Bradford , Huddersfield and Leeds United and all the trouble that goes hand in hand with such high profile fixtures?

We are Grimsby in 2021 not Millwall in 1981, these daft yorkies have a real problem with us for some reason.

Ah well Market Rasen it is.

Yes Confirmed by club on twitter mate

Saying its a joint decision between Council WYP and Halifax Town


When did a council get to decide who can attend football games ?
And I’d like to know their reasons for restricting ticket sales

If Halifax can’t handle 2-3000 Grimsby fans in their ground then they shouldn’t be allowed in the league

Feel sorry for people who have already booked on the coach firm that was advertising on here and leaving flyers on cars a few weeks ago.

I bet there's already plans in place for pay on the gate when hundreds of ticketless fans turn up.
