    Surely they must just let people in for Free now
    Who is going to pay to watch a game.which will basically be a Pre Season game as we have nothing to play for.

    If they dont i cant even see 200 people there

    Letting people in for free would lose them money we don't have.

    My lads footy mad, when I told him it was a pointless match he said "we'll have the whole stand to ourselves".
    Doubt I'll be going like.

    There will be something in the rules whereby a minimum charge will apply for admission.

    That said I wouldn’t go if I was given a free ticket. I struggle to motivate myself for the league games on the season ticket I’ve already paid for never mind this.

    Play it behind closed doors. No fans in the ground.

    Can play it in my back garden if they wait until I shut my curtains first.

    To save money they should just play it behind closed doors, but I suppose there's away fans to consider, not their fault we're dire.

    I think we can influence whether Donny qualify.
    Otherwise I think forfeit would be a good shout.

    I might go tbh, for the “I was there” story. Like the first Beatles gig.
