Looks like a full coach load of fans from west country n Tuesday night. Well done to them.
Lets make them welcome in our bar and send then home happy at our hospitality.
3 am when they get home. 6 am for some players who live in plymouth?

Not charging them £16 to get in would be a start.....

Have to agree, a drop in entry price would be nice as it's not the most glamorous of games. Can't see it happening though. I'm debating whether to attend and I only live 16 miles away.

For FA Cup games there is a minimum entry imposed by the FA depending on the round being played. For this round it's £6 while not suggesting the club should lower entry to that mark, a concession would be nice as it's another £16 for regular followers and all pay on the night. I will be there tomorrow as my son wants to go to an evening game and I am not going to inflict the E10 Mafia on the poor kid so it's the "magic" of the FA Cup for us. Edit - I have just noticed this makes 3 home games in a week, surely there must be some leeway (no pun intended) on admission prices for this cup game given that it's going to be real stretch for some. |

If the prices are not put down tomorrow, it will just prove that the board does not care about the fans and certainly do not care about attracting more people to come along.

As posted elsewhere I would like to think that the board would look into running a promotion or something similar to attract the fans, but as it is a cup game and a shared gate then whatever decision gets made on proving has to be agreed by both teams so blame can't be put wholly on our board of directors who lets face it pull out all the stops to support our pub team as they do!!
If we were on a winning streak then how many of you would not miss this whatever the cost?? I guess you are just looking at ways to convince yourselves not to go and potentially see a giant killing!?!

I see that the normal admission price at Weymouth is £11.00 (not sure if that is what the ticket price was for the game on Saturday).
Perhaps we could match their prices? That sounds like a good compromise.

£11 was the price at Weymouth on Sat with concessions at £8 which is their usual admission fee. Considering they are Southern League
our pricing is IMO in line with the fact we are 2 leagues above them.

No doubt there will be even more moaning with the possibility of 4 home games in less 2 weeks if we are fortunate enough to get through Tuesday. |

That sounds like a good compromise. I can't imagine that Weymouth's players are on the same money as our boys. Are people also expecting the players to get paid a lower amount tonight because they're up against lower league opposition?  ? |

Sorry for the short notice, but I couldn't find out from your OWS:
Will there be segregation tonight?
Are we allowed into your bar pre-match?
Is there any on-street parking near the ground? - I need to make a quick getaway afterwards.
Looking forward to the game tonight. There should be a good away attendance, we usually take 50/60ish, but could be 100 or so, what with people travelling from London/East Anglia.
Thanks

Are we just assuming tonight is full price? Think it's a bit poor that this late in the day we, and travelling fans who raise valid questions above, haven't been informed.
