Ticket News Sittingbourne FC H Isuzu FA Trophy - 1st February 2025 3pm

[It'sGrimUpNorth]

There could be Kent vs Essex punch ups going on all round the ground

I very much doubt it.

 

[It'sGrimUpNorth]

Agree. Hindsight is a wonderful thing. At least we are trying to accommodate their unexpected overspill. That's more than the likes of Daggers and others have done for our travelling fans in the past. As regards splitting the support to different areas, its unfortunate, but this happens regularly with our fans travelling away. Often our terrace support is in the opposite area to those sitting.
Life isn't always perfect.

Great post.

Basically, let it go people. It’s really no big deal.

 

[Leigh_Seasider]

I very much doubt it.

I wasn’t being serious

 

[Harry Bullocks]

No we've just opened part of the West for more away fans

Ok, news doesn’t travel fast or far this far north

 

[Billy Bests boot laces]

Maybe just me but I find it very odd people won't buy a ticket because of seats here or there. I go to watch football not worry about my seat. I assume those fussy haven't been to the dreadful away grounds we play at with terrible views and facilities. Just buy a ticket and enjoy the game. Up the Blues!

I sat in the East Stand for the games against Darlington 2 years ago, & Hampton & Richmond last season, wasn't ideal but hey ho.
I had my 4th injection in my abdomen on Tuesday ( unforeseen mega health problems, which will keep me sidelined until next season due to forthcoming treatment ), which currently makes it difficult to sit in a confined space without suffering discomfort.
Had the West Stand been open, i could have stood at the back without experiencing any problems. That's the reason i won't be cheering us on tomorrow.

Bad news mate, hope you make a good recovery.

Bad news mate, hope you make a good recovery.

If the Grim Reaper comes for me, he will have the battle of his life, before I give in!.

So far Sittingbourne have a tad under a 1000 supporters turning up tomorrow which is a fantastic turn out for a club which gets hardly any support.We on the other hand have considerably more in attendance let's make sure we get right behind the team and spoil there big day out.

 

[RobB11]

Tis always thus.
From somewhere a club with an average 300 has conjured 800.
Last season, Maidstone average gate, 2,200 took 4,500 to Ipswich, something approaching the same ratio.
It's interesting how these clubs generate a near 50% increase in fans for a big game.

Friends and family etc of all players and staff… plus obviously casual day trippers like when we have ever had a big day out (minus the Lincoln play-off).

 

[Gt Yarmouth Shrimper]

I remember going away to Colchester in a Cup game in the early 2000s and they put Southend fans in two opposite areas of their old layerabout ground .

They did at Boston 3 weeks ago. We couldn't see them though, but we heard them.
We in the seats shared the main stand with no segregation at all.

 

[Up the Shrimpers]

Only about 50 home tickets available. If you want a ticket together back row of South Upper is your only choice.
Thought another section or two would have been opened by now.

 

[Fred]

Nearly 900 Shrimpers in the North Bank today, some like me returning since their youth and no doubt rekindling old memories which I’ll be able to share with my two grown up sons sat beside me who are both life-long Shrimpers and season ticket holders. That’s the way to bring up your kids.

We will surely be able to make one hell of a noise in there today against an almost equal and impressive number of ‘Brickies’ We should on paper proceed in the competition but that’s never a given as our history can prove but I’m looking forward to an entertaining game and just hope that I don’t get a tap on the ankles from the ’Old Bill’

 

[Up the Shrimpers]

There is going to be a bit of confusion in North Bank with people looking for their correct seats. We should just say its unallocated seating just like it is for the away fans in the North Bank.

Yep, I'm bringing the grandsons up from Sussex to go in the North Bank for the first time in decades. We had some wonderful Friday nights there, didn't we?

 

[Up the Shrimpers]

South Upper block HY just opened up if anyone still looking for tickets.

 

[Up the Shrimpers]

Actually just a bit of a warning for people going in the North Bank today.... don't leave it too late as there is only 1 small entrance into the stand and it's not the best gangway once you get inside.

Unfortunately it's not the north bank we onced loved.

It's incredibly cramped and poor view.

I'd love the club to rebuild it as safe standing and really get it bouncing.

Hope you enjoy the nostalgia though Fred, and a win obviously

 

[Up the Shrimpers]

South Upper block I now open...... why didn't we do this days ago?
