£5 less (£15) which is 25% cheaper than Wrexham.

BTW I believe £15 is the league minimum (and that in itself is expensive). To put it into context I paid £20 to watch Wales on Monday night, and now the same price for non-league Football

In that case we must be breaking the rules, charging £13.50 to get in. I hope you don't mind when we come down to your place and complain about how much you're ripping us off?

£14 at ours...

Obviously I was wrong, and I'm not even going into the whole north/south economy argument

The extra £1.50 is for the roof.....But as I said in my previous post I think £15 is expensive for this level of Football, so you'll find no disagreement from me

Some of the prices in this league are absurd. Ex football league clubs don't seem to realise that they're in non league.
Home to the daggers today and expecting a heavy defeat.

How do you expect full time clubs to actually make money?

It should really be down to the fans of each club to complain about ticket prices. Yes, paying anything over £15 is ridiculous at this level, but as an away fan, if you're prepared to invest time and money travelling halfway across the country to watch a match then surely an extra few quid to get in isn't a big financial hit for you. The only way clubs will change is if their own fans aren't turning up and citing the prices as the reason.

Alfreton were charging more than some FT Clubs down here a couple of seasons ago.

FAO Chester fans, been at the ground an hour now, no more than heavy drizzle(yet) but pitch is immaculate as ever, no problems getting the game on

There is a band of heavy rain, from NE to SW, moving eastwards across the country. On the rain radar it looks dry in Dover at the moment, but my guess would be that it will start raining during the second half of the game today.

Its not that the clubs don't realise they are in non league, it's that the stadiums are much bigger and therefore more expensive to run. I agree we are expensive (I have to pay that every home game) but it's not like our ground (or Tranmere or anyone else with a big ex league ground) is the same as that of Solihull, Sutton, North Ferriby. If we were charging 20 quid to lean on a barrier around a football pitch and go to the toilet in a portaloo I'd see the point.

Hearing representatives of Lincoln are waiting outside Crabble ready to kidnap Ricky Miller.

What a game that was. One of the most exciting 90 mins I've seen at Crabble.

Draw probably would've been a fair result, although Forest Green should've had a man sent off so not sure what the dodgy ref comments are about

There's the first of Chris FGR's 4-3 games.


...what do you mean Forest Green didn't win?

The push on Tubbs for your first and the fact we got yellows for the same fouls that your players received nothing for.

The yellows had no effect, and you should've had a man sent off.

I'll be surprised if I see a game as good as that all season, brilliant.

Joking aside i saw from the start of the second half up to 75th minute when i had to go drop the kids at a party, and you were bloody unlucky to be fair!

Your first was from a dive, and you should have had 10 men after 35 minutes.

Ifs and buts.

I should add, it was an enjoyable game, and I do think FGR look outstanding at times.

Fuck!!....Wished I had seen this especially as I sat through 90 minutes of bloody misery watching Rangers get trounced 5-1. This one must have been some game. I'll have to try and catch a replay on BT Sport.
