Any views on the ticketing arrangements for what is going to be one of the biggest matches in our recent history?

200 tickets available at £25 for non ST holders.

A bit of an anti climax from the original 3928 capacity from about 4 weeks ago.

Imagine it will be the same for the Quarter Final play off game.

Can't see that sort of crowd creating much of a home advantage.

UTP.

So in addition to the 200 non ST holders how many fans will be in the ground.

1,700 can make a fair bit of noise if they have a mind too. That was pretty much an average crowd for most of the 1980s. Depends how many season ticket holders are North West Corner types and how many are old knackers like me.

Though to be fair, I've always liked a bit of a shout and am prone to a Tourette's outburst every now and again.

Shame we can't pack the place out but every promotion contender is in the same boat - except Sutton, who never had any fans in the first place.

Are facemasks mandatory for these games between now and 21 June ( part way thru the Euros ).
If yes then surely terraced parts of grounds should be open at reduced capacity.
Nailed on the Racecourse fans will be welded to each other after a few Shandy's.

heard somewhere they have to be worn entering the ground and moving about it to your seat. once seated you can remove them. watching the fa cup final it seemed about 50/50 of fans wearing them. its more or less uninforcible anyway due to all the number of people involved.

The vaccine is really starting to kick in now.
Covid hospital patients down from 40000 to 900.
Death rate down from 1800 a day to about 9 for the last week.
Honestly thought that you covid vaccine card to prove you been jabbed and a face covering would of given us a bit more freedom to live especially in the outdoor world.
Outdoor sporting venues should be
Had the jab = no mask required
Not had the jab = mask required
50 % capacity just to be on the safe side.
DC said on radio under normal circumstances we could quite easily take 20000 fans to Wembley for the final.
Eh

For the final match, although we'll not be at capacity, BT will likely do a 'round the grounds' coverage. Will this mean there won't be a live stream available? Any ST holders on here had communications about that?

Its been confirmed there will be a livestream provided by the club as usual.

We are paying a hefty contribution to their travel costs due to them agreeing to move to the last day of the season.
Tin pot club.

do not get that one bit. is it costing them more to travel now than it would have only a few weeks ago. would have been nice for pools to hammer em just to send the rip off chancers down.

stockport are allowing over 2,000 fans into their ground on saturday. i imagine pools will have a similar situation for the weymouth game. staggered entry times from 1.15 onwards. no muzzles once seated. exiting the ground block by block. no alcohol inside the ground, temperature taken before you enter, questionaire to fill in, NHS app to be scanned on entry plus more stuff. is it really worth the hassle for 90 minutes of football. your idea seams more sensible to me. its not compulsory to go to the vic or any other ground.

Disappointing getting in at 1:15 if it kicks-off at 12:30

Anyone heard how ST holders get hold of the 'paper tickets'? Or entry arrangements? Or how to get hold of tickets if you haven't got a season ticket?

Bump

Something has been announced but the club website is down. Only Pools........

Seems Wednesday-Friday office open for you 906 or early Saturday before game.

Or for next year's ST holders 12pm Tuesday if you're lucky!

so it sounds like if you have not got a season ticket for this or next season then you can forget it.
