If anyone is planning to go to this fixture, I happily invite them to join me for a pre- (or post-)match drink in my local, the White Hart in Crowle. It's only 10-15 minutes drive from the ground and barely a couple of miles out of your way as you drive along the M180.

Be there or be square. And - if it just so happens you have a spare evening to fill in - I will be jamming in the very same pub on the night.
You can't miss it: it's right on the high street.

My sister's husband is from Crowle, and he says it's an interesting place. Some of his family are a bit odd like.

I'll hopefully pop in and say hello.

Strange decision. I'm presuming the tickets are for the stand where we were last season in the LDV when Sir David notched twice and Pools looked a better team when that silly boy Robbie Elliott got sent off.

Their ground holds 9,088 with 1,678 in the away end. So if they gave us the full allocation then that'd leave approx 7400.

Their biggest crowd of the season was their top of the table clash against Leicester when presumably Leicester sold their full allocation which means the most Scunny have had in the home end this season is 6300.

Do they really think they are going to get an EXTRA 1100 on top of the biggest crowd they've had this season against which was against Leicester?

Silly, silly twats.

I was going to make a last minute decision before deciding to go. I think there will be a couple of hundred people pretty miffed at this decision.

Yes, well, if you do get a ticket you know where to go for a drink OK?

what if I don't get one?

Sorry, only football-match-ticket-carrying clients allowed in - even on weekdays and quiz nights.

I've got some stubs from old cup games, any good?

Amazed at how few tickets we have. Normally have a good following there - and we usually have a good following on Boxing Day - so some may be unlucky.

Corner Flag will have bus/buses going but need to know asap - preferably on Friday night. Bookings before/after match. Details on 261197
