Pigs sold 5,800 as of this morning.......

they say they have 7,200 tickets so take it we have gave them the West Lower again? wish we wouldnt do that. All for what an extra 20 odd grand? It makes it into a home game for them yet again.

 

they wanna stick em in the south terrace and split em up so we can give em what for from the Ponty.

Remember when we got split up at St James Park??? Totally killed the noise from our fans - bigger ground and less fans granted but it was a nasty trick they pulled there.

 

A trick that worked though, our board dont think like that. nt

 

So no segregation issues in the West Stand this week ?

Excellent. I must say, between BFC and SY Police, they certainly make away fans as welcome as possible and do their utmost not to spoil their enjoyment.</p>

Barnsley fans away ? Scum to be treated as such.</p>

 

Were did you read/hear this mate?

 

Indeed

Much like Barnsley fans at home then.

 

RE: Indeed

Fair point.

 

It seems that way with SY police

Could have easily split the North Stand for Chelsea, on the concourse theres a gate that goes across to keep segregation at half time and its been done before so they wouldn't have needed the West Stand. Advantage away team again, they may as well give em a free scarf and a bovril on the way in too.

Top poster says over 7,000 tickets available. Further down the board someone says box office says theres 200 hundred left but he's unsure whether or not they have the West Stand.

 

RE: It seems that way with SY police

The police wouldn't allow it.

 

Cause they're w*nk but places like Birmingham

split their stands up regardless of who they're playing and they have a much higher potential for trouble. Chelsea wont have any yobs travelling with them, they have a youth element these days but their police have an hold on them and they've plenty of banning orders dished out that have solved this. Sounds like our police still think they're like they were in the 80's. Over cautious policing yet again.

 

RE: Cause they're w*nk but places like Birmingham

Down to the fact that they are Category A fans and they don't have enough resources on that day to police it. (Short notice and all that)

 

RE: Cause they're w*nk but places like Birmingham

I bet SY police are fuming that we've got a 3pm kick off for a local derby.</p>

Lack of 'resources' - properly laughing.</p>

 

Lack of Resources....

Who else are they policing that day? Dont us and the blunts usually play at home on the same day and the rest away?

 

RE: Lack of Resources....

I think us and Sheff Utd are paired together - so when us 2 are at home, Wednesday and Rovrum are away etc.</p>

So I imagine that when we play Chelsea Sheff Wed will also be at home. They must have a category 'A' match too.</p>

 

Pikeys and Pigs at home on the Saturday...

against QPR and Port Vale, **** me their resources will be stretched. Cancel all leave the Donny crowd may break 7,000.

 

QPR massive coming

You can see SY police's point.</p>

Absolutely no fall out from the hey-day of the 5-0 at all.</p>

 

Thought we`d given them about 5,700 in North Stand. Don`t forget they put meshing in bottom corner next to East Stand for segregation.

 

some of the "jokes" on that page

are actually relatively true

 

6,000 for that end

They haven't put any across in previous years against the pigs but strangley enough they sometimes have against other teams. They just have around 150 coppers there instead.
