    Like Stockport.

    It was just 3 teams for this season, but Wrexham were a late addition to the 'list'.

    We’re not, Wrexham absolutely paid the higher price tickets and pretty sure I’ve seen Stockport fans moaning about it

    The extra 1-2,000 those teams take should more than cover any increased costs, without the need for a surcharge on top!
    That’s just a lame excuse to justify taking advantage of good old supply and demand increasing prices

    Amazed why?
    We are 15th, 8 points off the play offs.
    Theres only a few hundred tickets left.
    That's great going considering the position we are in.
    If we'd have played these last few weeks they would have gone ages ago

    All the preaching (from large elements of our fan base) how big a club, and the furore how the loyalty scheme is unfair every time a Harrogate or Salford sells out.

    Yes one of the few professions where you can make a complete mess get paid off then get employment by another desperate club.

    All this moral high ground bollox, as you allude to, if we were top 5 we'd have sold this out no problem. The low turnout on Tuesday night is a real indicator as to why we haven"t yet sold out our allocation, there is a strong feeling of apathy towards the club right now, most folk would be happy to see the end of the season and try and get enthusiastic for next season. There is still a chance we may take 7th if results go our way toward the end of the season but the general feeling amongst the support is this season has been a flop.

    One of the main reasons l am not going is the Stand. Crap old terrace open to all the elements. All those who love standing can have it, not for me! If it rains you get pissed wet through. At the moment the weather forecast is for it to be dry…..but with a ‘feels like temperature’ of 4 degrees!
    Anyway l had a look at the new ticket system. No tickets showing for the Accrington game and also on the actual announcement on the club website, so l assume it has sold out.

    There were still tickets available, for both terrace and seats, up until yesterday.

    The away seats are half of the stand to the right of the open terrace.

    I have sat in the stand to the left of the open end, several seasons ago. Accrington is the only match l will miss in March. Having had the wasted journey over on Saturday, then this is the only spare weekend in March, sometimes family life has to have priority.

    Got the full stand for this one SB, hence the extra 300 tickets given to us

    Try telling @Captain Grumpy@Captain Grumpy that RT. He thinks I’m in a minority of 1 with my disappointment of the lack of progress under this regime

    Nonsense, but it’s not as widespread as you think, it’s also not as simple as blame the owner when the team struggles. I would love a multi millionaire to buy us and invest millions but there is nothing on the horizon despite conspiracy theories that they are queuing round the corner. Rupp isn’t a great owner but neither is he a bad one who would wreck the club, his absence from games and that he lives in Germany is not a problem as that is why he employs Sparks. Whether people think Sparks is up to the job is arguable. The noise from fans about ownership was not loud last season as the team performed and got into the playoffs yet it was still the same owner that gets all the abuse now from some. You can drive Rupp out by all means but make sure there is someone capable of taking the club on first.
