League games will begin when supporters are allowed back but FA games will go ahead behind closed doors is what I've read. Depending on who you draw by the time clubs have paid travel costs, officials, players etc it may end up costing sides money to stage these games in empty grounds! Just doesn't seem viable really does it, of course it's worth it for the prize money - But minimal with a loss and as you say will end up costing sides money! No Replays Either.. And all the qualifying rounds alternate between Saturday fixtures and midweek fixtures. Although the early rounds are regionalised there will still be some lengthy journeys which will be a pain on a Tuesday evening.

Season ticket and pay on the gate prices for the new season are in... Official Site - LinkA couple of quid extra to pay on the gate. Inevitable really, it had to go up again one day and these are not the best of days. It makes a season ticket better value, especially if renewing.

Great to see we are in the age of online ticketing but would is be pessimistic of me to say we could end up with more Season Tickets bought than allowed capacity?

Figures the club put out a while back in one of the programmes had the ST holder percentage of our gates as being really quite low. Even with a much higher take up next season I couldn't see our percentage capacity being set that low... ...he says, gulp

The link doesn't work now and there is nothing I can see on the official site re prices; I wonder if a rethink isn't being contemplated or even pausing to see what form the season will take.
As an aside, guess what? That's right, naff all news from the leagues or FA about any rule changes etc

Details on promotion and relegation for next season. 2 sides from step 3 finishing 3rd bottom will be relegated using PPG.
Season ticket link has been removed as it was just a 'test event' to see if it worked before going live.

The Wrexham method of selling tickets in blocks makes a lot of sense. That way they can see how the season and the pandemic progresses without fans committing for a full season that may not get completed.

Talking of season tickets.... but touching also on 'dodgy links' Has anyone else had an unsolicited email through from the club asking them to press an 'activate' button to set up an account within which they can purchase their season ticket? Looks legit but sadly is also the sort of modus operandi employed in phishing.

Us being lifetimer's dont need to sign up though however.. PS - You also have a DM

...asking for a friend 😉 ...although saying that ST's only ever cover league games only. If initial reduced capacities did indeed mean 'ticket only' games so queues don't form and/or folk getting turned away... then everyone would need an account 🤔 Say we draw a Sussex team in the early stages of the FA Cup/Vase with a 20% capacity limit for example 😱 Likewise away games. A season ticket doesn't cover them and they too may be all ticket, at least initially. If it's just setting up an account on which you THEN book tickets as/when you need them, I figure there's no harm in registering.
