Ticket News Wealdstone (h) Saturday 26 April 5:30pm - block X open; 10,000 theoretically doable

[Crowstone Crevette]

Absolutely agree with this.
And please shoot towards the NB in the 2nd half please!

@It'sGrimUpNorth ^^^^^^^This

North Bank sold out once more.

Another 1,000+ in there proving the appetite is certainly there to create a proper "home end" again.

Chuck the usual 50-100 away fans right up the back in Block Y/Z and give us the entire North Bank COSU and with a successful team, we will fill it all.

Might need both exits out of the north (East and West) for capacity flow and giving Block Y/Z to away fans would put the West out of action which would mean that all of the north would have to filter out of the East

If its not an issue then it should sort out the car parking then as well as the away fans could access from the Fairfax drive entrance and the North could access from the East Stand Car park, removing the need for that stupid barrier entrance all the way down the car park.

Wealdstone have now sold close to 300 and will likely sell their allocation.

Surely looking at a 9k crowd again

 

[Harry Bullocks]

400 allocated? Braintree got more
Guessing that is due to 1k + Shrimpers and segregation

For those that emailed the ticket office to switch season cards to the North Bank, did you get a confirmation reply from them?

I’ve sent an email yesterday as advised with SHR number and had zero back. Now it’s sold out I have no idea whether my card has been moved over or not.

Better give them a call mate.

Wealdstone’s last game is home to Halifax, could be a must win game for them after Sat.

If we beat Wealdstone and Wealdstone then beat Halifax, we should leapfrog the Shaymen too with a superior goal difference

Providing Halifax don't beat Braintree by a hatful. Halifax are not the greatest scorers, but Braintree are toothless after losing Lisbie, Francis and Akinde, as they proved against Daggers last weekend.

But also good at keeping teams out like us and Dagenham.

Obviously would be happy with any position in the play offs. But I actually think we’d be better off with 7th than 6th, as that would mean *if* we can get to the semi final we would go away to 3rd place Forest Green.

Would fancy our chances of going away to them and winning a lot more than York.

Sure this season there will be hiccups. I have one gripe. I sit in the East and now the Fairfax Drive exit isn't an option, I now have to avoid cars trying to leave the Car Park at the same time as the entire East Stand. Only a matter of time until there is an accident. Surely the cars need to be held back for say 15 minutes to allow a majority of those on foot to leave first.

Hi Thundersley Blue I park my car in the Car Park and yes you are right it’s very Dangerous with Supporters & cars leaving together but I think the lack of Stewards is a problem plenty on the gate when coming in but after the game there is no stewards controlling people or vehicles leaving together this certainly needs looking into with bigger crowds,

I emailed them over the weekend and got a reply Tuesday saying they had swapped them over and been sent the tickets l, I didn't get the tickets id originally asked for as they had gone but they put me in the row behind where I asked.

My son got his new ticket back via email.

Has anyone ever given this raider person a ****ing good hiding? I don't find his little act charming - it's tiresome and absurd.

Echo this.. He turned his celebrity (loose term) into an opportunity to raise a hell of a lot of money for charity.

By all accounts, a real nice guy. Fair play to him

 

[Tommy2holes]

Back on subject..

It would be fantastic if the safety cert allowed for the hall to be restored to its rightful capacity next season.

Am I right in thinking we achieved 11,700 against Yeovil in league 2 some years ago.

Id love to see some more 10k + crowds again.

I live in Rayners Lane, he drinks in my local pub.... he is actually an OK bloke when he hasn't had 12 pints and people egg him on to do/say something stupid....Had a few chats with him about Wealdstone and Southend and he knows his stuff in more detail than people realise.

Ditto for me, fair play to the ticket office, very efficient service
