Aldershot Town and the Small Claims Court

[andykn]

While I wish you all good luck in making a claim n' all... given that those of you who are bleating the most don't appear to have bothered researching any of your "arguments", here are a few reminders:

1. The T&C are posted on the OUTSIDE of theTurnstiles not just the club website – so that excuse isn't valid (unless you want to claim you can't read. Lets also face it... whould you have read them anyway? I've been a football supporter since the mid 80's and never have).

1. The ticket issue has been done the death and STILL some of you can’t get it through your thick skulls… YOUR CLUB did not return the un-used tickets in time so rather than allow you lot to stand outside waiting for them to arrive the SAFETY OFFICER (who is qualified to allow this sort of thing) allowed the issue of Shrewsbury tickets to allow you to enter the ground so it's a NON-POINT. It could have said anything on the ticket, the piece of paper you receive is all that is required. Once YOUR CLUB had returned the un-sold tickets, they were used.
2. Of course the "lawers" you spoke to are "interested"... they don't make money turning customers away now do they? Still, it's your money so fill your boots. You had 45 minutes of the game though, so would imagine a District Judge will only say you get £8.50 back.

Good luck though.

Doesn't matter what the T&Cs say, the club still have a legal obligation to provide a product that isn't defective. Floodlights failing is the club's defective product. Fog is different as it's outside the control of the club.

The Shrews ticket thing is probably a non issue.

A defective product is a defective product. Half a football match is about as useful as half a car, not half a tank of petrol.

bless! That's so sweet :smile:

But seriously - filing fee, hearing fee, plus the fact that the case will be held near the defendant - are you really sure it's worth it?!

I'm pretty sure the filing fee and hearing fee are paid for by the loser.

And I live much closer to Aldershot than Southend.

If we'd been awarded the 3 points would anybody have been moaning?

 

[Crabby Shrimper]

If we'd been awarded the 3 points would anybody have been moaning?

no, because to most on here 3 points are worth more than watching 90 minutes of football, which is worth more than the entrance fee. Ergo value would've been had for the outlay

 

[Hotman]

So what amount below which do you just shrug and say "that's life, I'll let myself be stiffed this time"?

Depends what you value your own time at. I certainly wouldn't waste any emotion, let alone time, solicitors fees, court filing fees, hearing fees, travel to the court for £25!

I'm pretty sure the filing fee and hearing fee are paid for by the loser.

And I live much closer to Aldershot than Southend.

So do I - and I still wouldn't travel there for £25! And I'm not a gambler, so don't fancy putting down these "lawyer's" fees, filing fees and hearing fees, and whatever travel there is - on what might not come off! Get in the real world!!

If we'd been awarded the 3 points would anybody have been moaning?

****ing hell, something from ldnfasto that I agree with wholeheartedly! Enjoy the green - it's a rare occasion mate.

Fergie does as we have a 100% against his mob unlike a tin pot team we can name!!

And we did put the final nail in the coffin of a Chelsea manager as I recall.

Sorry but you lot are just like the programme. If you have the Balls take Aldershot to the small claims court. Cant wait for the results.

Hope the banks are staying open for the next 6 months so the massive support you have can cash your Cheques. A real big club is Plymouth in our division, The crap they have been through, club, players ,Fans. And they brought more to us than you lot (dee dums you got held up on the M25 with the tickets you sent back) Aldershot are Second division.
In 20 years they got from Istmian div 3 through the pyramid and have the right to be League Status and yes I will admit in a Conference ground. You lot will fold as soon as you go out of the League and I hope and pray it happens.

Sorry to real Southend Fans, as there are some of you but god most of you are big girls Blouses

ANDYKN YES of course you did by getting a replay and us thrashing you. Only thing of note that happened in the replay your Mickey mouse pitch ended the career in England of a fine player

Happy new Year

Sorry, Team from Clanmell but I don't understand why you are getting involved in this. If, as you say, people are wasting their time (and money) then they will get their comeuppance. If the Courts decide there is a case to answer then so be it. A lot of people feel that Aldershot have acted incorrectly over the refunds/rearranged match price. Your fans will also suffer no doubt. This grievance would be there if it was Chelsea or Wrexham so it's not just a hate campaign against Aldershot.

If the club don't/wont change their stance over this matter let an independent adjudicator decide. That's my view, without any insults to anyone.

Good luck for the rest of the season.

You hope and pray we will go out the league and fold do you TFC, why dont you just **** off you ****.:finger2:

Sorry, tfc, but I'm a bit confused. Are you an Aldershot or a Chelsea supporter? Or do you swing both ways?

I think his just a bit frustrated!!

Because you know as little about the law as you do football.

Teams always take larger crowds to away matches if they haven't played each other for many years, or, as in the case of Plymouth at Aldershot, ever. And Aldershot is one of Plymouth's nearer fixtures. Even then, I suspect we brought more when we played there the first time than Plymouth did, they only brought 1000 (and the combined gate was under 4,000 "is that all you get at home?")

Tin pot non league. Looking forward to smashing your lot in the replay. It might have to be a lunchtime kick off though if we are to get the full 90 minutes :finger:

 

[Team from clanmell]

Cant wait for the replay myself. God please, please, please let Aldershot win and you miss out on Promotion because of it. Plymouth have always been and will always be a bigger club than The Thams Estuary Galacticos.

Oxford have been and always will be a bigger club than you. What winds me up about you lot is the whinging. Any tin pot lawyer will tell you, you have a case. as he wants your money.

Low and behold when you lose and you have a bill cant wait. Aldershot did not do this on purpose, it happens. Nice to see you have a Scummer on here as well, Come on the Skates.

Are you really 45? I'd have thought that most people aged over 13 would've made there way back to their own forum by now

Agreed. There are not many opposition posters who have amassed 65 posts on this forum, still less someone who talks such utter bollocks.
