UE: Pitch invasion after the game by 100s of people all wearing Chris Wilder masks to avoid identification.

A tricky question. If a club gets into the Premiership it is going to have to pay a lot more in wages if it wants to stay there, and players are unlikely to want to sign a one year deal / pay cut for relegation. So the parachute payment seems a reasonable &quotreward&quot for the club's 1 ye...

In the statistics section, I would like to see attendance records for the &quotnew&quot ground. We are not going to beat the current &quottop 20 at home&quot in the current 3 sided stadium, but I would like to see a run-down of the top attendances. The question often pops up, and mos...

&quotEach home club retains their full gate receipts from the Play-Offs. In the final, 25% of the Gate Receipts is given to each club, the remaining 50% goes to the Conference and The Fa. The Conference divvy it up amongst all their member clubs.&quot is what Brahma Bull posted on tiu. Whic...

Re:

C) The Conference meeting at Wembley on Monday was to confirm the between the clubs and Conference how the share of all 4 clubs' play-off ticket sales would be divided. By that I assume you mean the income from them. No brainer surely. Each club keeps their home gate receipts but I bet the BSP take...

Just to annoy GY a bit more, the tickets (well the ones I collected at Nene Park) were printed up as OPPONENTS TBC, which means they were presumably available to give to the opposition last Saturday at 5pm. So there are even fewer excuses for not selling until Tuesday A) The ticket office were still...

Was very poor of the media to broadcast a private comment from inside his car. How many of us have put the phone down and then sworn out loud at the person we've just been speaking to - and to be fair to Gordon Brown he didn't even swear. The woman clearly was a bigot - blame the nation's problems o...

I was wondering why Luton weren't involved, even though the Cambridge man doing the walk is calling in at Luton on his walk. http&#58//www&#46protectfootballsfuture&#46co&#46uk/ Apparently Luton got in a strop because certain clubs wanted the Chester points reinstated, and so didn't ...

Well it is another own goal for the club this time. Can we collect the tickets at Rushden? Who knows? Why are the tickets only on sale from Tuesday? Sorry for the negativity, but lots of us exiles are asking these questions, which (begs or raises) the question as to why the club can't foresee the qu...

Re: Rushden

Why bother getting a season ticket, with the supposed rights that brings, if those rights are then unilaterally withdrawn? ST holders do have the right to get a ticket from 9:30am Tuesday, and tickets only go on general sale from 7pm that day. Agree with the other posts that it is ridiculous that t...

The old election to the football league seemed even more of a lottery. I read of one team who I think missed out because a committee member was in the wrong room when the vote was taken, causing the team to miss out on election by 1 vote.
