Great offer from the club and backed up by a superb display. Yes they can't do it every week. But I really think next week would be ideal opportunity for a repeat. At home to dag and red, top of the league and unbeaten. A win would really set momentum going. No home game for Boro or toon either.

Id like to think we could get 3500 plus without an offer. 2nd biggest crowd in the non league today even beating tranmeres. Apparently can only do 3 a season.

Took my son today. He enjoyed it. Can't fall off for 2 hours entertainment for £6. He wants to go back n make it a regular thing for us. So this may help get a few kids interested.

With home games on 3 consecutive Saturdays, the club had to do something to keep the floating fans turning up; and particularly so after the Fylde game. It will be interesting to see what they do for the Dagenham game - £5 again, or something different? Whatever deal they come up with, it needs to be matched by sorting out the turnstiles (I know they are advertising for operators)

There were queues on the Niramax side with some fans apparently being turned away to another turnstile. Calls to the stewards to make a call to sort it out were met with a "I can't do anything about it" response. The clipboard person with him, & the steward need to get on board to improve the Match Day Experience upon which we are all being urged to comment

Why does the site automatically change my description of what used to be the Mill House side to Max Bygraves?

The 'cash' turnstile on the Mill House side was a window selling tickets for cash that you then had to present at the turnstile. Was a bit daft, but no biggie.

I think the 3 a season rule is if you charge away fans more than home fans, they can charge what they want each game as long as the away fans get the same deal.

Please enlighten me

The problem at the Nirmax Terrace standing turnstile seemed to be that for a while the scanning machine didn't recognise tickets for terrace standing. I was too far down the queue to be sure, but fans appeals to the steward to make a call to get it sorted fell on deaf ears

Best feeling in the world when you first take your kids to pools and they get hooked.

Unless you were talking about lidl? sctatchinghead

I think they've done all they can to make access easier and if there was a technical issue, it happens, unfortunately. Did anyone fail to get in or miss the kick off?

Surprised at you making such a schoolboy error.

Needs to be the ASDA first.
