    Yes about £5,000 reasons (that might be on the low side).

    You’ve lost me? Are you suggesting that privileged people with money had a right to travel when others couldn’t?
    People lost loved ones and couldn’t attend funerals yet we have the prawn sarnie brigade able to travel to a football match in awful weather when there wasn’t any good reason to be there.
    I await another cocky response.

    How do you know about my heated coat.
    Daft thing is she's never bothered when me and the grandson have gone in the past, he couldn't make the Mansfield game so she came along and loved it especially when Cook scored the winner infront of us.
    I asked if I could purchase a season ticket although the deadline had passed but Mick in the ticket office said Ryan would not allow any more to be sold after the deadline so I pay for here on a game to game basis.

    He's already posted why he could attend away games, you obviously didn't read it, not sure what your rant with regards funerals has to do with it, there was criteria all fans attending games had to meet and they did.
    Envy is a terrible thing and can eat you up, maybe you being a business man you could join the Prawn Sarnie Brigade what's £5,000 to a man like yourself.

    It’s not envy, it’s anger.
    You still haven’t answered my question. What ESSENTIAL role did @wetherbywhaler@wetherbywhaler have which needed his attendance during a pandemic otherwise which would have meant the game couldn’t go ahead? Even the radio commentators weren’t allowed to go ffs.
    It’s nothing different to the rich being able to go on foreign holidays when nobody else could. I’m sure you wouldn’t have just accepted that.

    Sorry Loyal but I have explained the situation, the rules, the qualifying process before. As far as commentary is concerned it was only the BBC who told Radio Leeds a no go. Other stations, including other BBC regions were fully represented and I think Radio Leeds still did our home games.

    I don't need to answer it I'm just telling you what was said at the time, cool down.
    There are plenty of things I believe are unfair but little I can do, you worry far to much.

    The radio commentators were only stopped from going by their left leaning employer. The BBC. Had they worked for a commercial radio they would have been there.

    So what if @wetherbywhaler@wetherbywhaler went as part of the official bcfc contingency? No skin off our noses is it.

    Bang on. Attending an empty stadium would have made zero appeal. I did it several times watching horses behind closed doors and it was terrible with no atmosphere.

    if those at the club went fair play to them. Fans weren’t missing out on much.

    Exactly my point Bronco, and why shouldn't he, moreover why should some upstart question him on it

    I did post a response which appeared twice and deleting one belated both.
    As Bronco says I answered all this at the time but seeing as you mention it, yes I was there officially.
    The rules allowed Club officials which included such as Associate Directors subject to all sorts of qualifications which I can repeat if anyone is really interested.
    Attended when we all could to at least have some BCFC voices.

    Yes, both copies of your response were deleted. I've restored the original one.

    Sometimes a mod can delete a double post then the poster does a few seconds before or after so they both dissappear
