    I remember both games well. That evening in Camebridge, 0:0 at half-time then 2nd half John Hawley and Bobby got 2 each.

    I seem to remember for the game at Bolton Trevor Cherry picked himself in order to counter the Jeff Chandler threat (the winger not the actor, he was long gone).

    It will have been something blended or mashed up to make it easier to eat.

    I see more clubs are pulling out shithousery now. Accrington Stanley have only given Carlisle about 1k tickets when they gave us 2.5k no more than a few weeks ago.

    To be fair that is twice what they were entitled to give them as they could give them 500 tickets as 10% of their ground attendance as per EFL rules.

    For grounds with over 20k, the minimum they have to give is 2k. It doesn't really work with us as barely anyone brings 2k to our place in the first place. Only Grimsby 2,187 & Chesterfield 2,341 this season have brought more than 2k, and to be honest the atmosphere has been far better for it.

    Sorry but the EFL should be all over it honestly it could start causing a lot of grief going forward.
    In Citys case should we grace the same league next season i would simply take the 1,500 tickets on offer and refuse the rest ............ok when times are crap and your willing to give 4k but an odd good day ????

    It should be 10% of capacity, no ifs no buts and then it’s equal across the board .If they can’t support holding the required 10% of away supporters why are they in the EFL in the first place?

    Don't teams get promoted through winning leagues?
    Does the capacity matter?

    The Doncaster situation might be annoying for many fans wanting to see our team in action but Doncaster are doing nothing wrong. Donny are completely entitled to sell the number of tickets they want to so long as they don't breach the EFL's own rules on away ticketing. These rules have been accepted by every club including our own for many years. If Donny weren't meeting the EFL's rules, I'm sure our club would be pressing the EFL to take action.

    If a club's ground cannot provide 10% of its capacity for away supporters, the ground doesn't meet EFL standards. In which case, the club cannot play in the EFL!

    You're right of course but Doncaster should not be surprised to see a sudden increase in 'neutral' fans for this game

    Of course. I understand from a friend of mine that Donny are being quite stringent on ticket sales and are not selling home tickets to 'new' fans from outside the Donny area. That's simply self protection on their part.
