Ticket News Forest Green Rovers (a) 21st May - Play-off Semi Final (SOLD OUT)

Good luck to those who have obtained tickets and safe travels.I regularly visit the area to visit family and please note it's a very difficult place to park street restrictions in place around the ground and more difficult as the park and ride not in use.Any Southend based Shrimper the coach option might be better bearing mind there could be extra time and penalties.
 
No doubt old "Stale Mince" is up to no good by only giving us the minimum amount of tickets because he is scared that our fans will totally out sing his bumpkin lot to victory.

My advise is that we sing twice as hard and loud and make it as difficult for them as possible because that is clearly his fear, the wretch of a man that he is.
I feel your on the fence about our owner!
 
Are the veggi boys so scared of the blue boys .That they give us a poor amount of tickets .We could have taken 1000 plus Is there groung really that small .
The ground is stupidly small (hence why they are building a new one out by the motorway junction) and the away section is way too close to the other stands and they are just too scared as normally travelling fans dont number in the suze that is coming let alone would like to come. There recruitment policy for the hi Liz wearing peeps seems to not be the usual gruff looking men (and women on occasion) other grounds have so they are scared of having to deal with your 'seaside ultras' I'm sure your fans will do you proud next week.
 
I went to Rochdale as a non season ticket holder and was driven there by a STH and his partner who is also not a STH. I bought my ticket on my own SUFC account and he bought his and his partners the same way. He had to wait for Phase 2 to buy his and hers tickets whilst I had to wait to Phase 2 separately. I managed to buy mine online just before they sold out (luck of the draw I suppose) but they had sold out before he could get his 2. So I have now booked onto a coach because having been to FGR before I know how difficult parking will be. Having said that, I live in Norfolk and will still have to drive home from Roots Hall when the coach returns. I got home from Rochdale at 5.30am and it will probably be about the same next week, but worth it to cheer the guys onto victory.

I sort of get that, but surely when the game proceeds are shared there would be value in giving us the full allocation? That's a rhetorical question, as neither you or I will really know the inner machinations of your club. For what it's worth, our away support is very lively, but does not a have any reputation for being good at the darker side of supporting. You never know, your Club may yet cough up the balance.

Money means nothing to the owner, its just another one of his ventures. The club made £5 million in last years accounts including selling 709,000 vegan pies commercially outside of the football industry but in total a £4 million loss. So certain individuals at the top will never put the average fan home or away at the front of decisions.
 
That’s a good point he should have a staff pass with the fantastic effort that mans put in bringing the away games alive for many who can’t make them.
Absolutely this. I watched the match on DAZN three hours after kick-off, not knowing the final score or the ebb and flow of the first 90 minutes, as I had double-booked myself for a gig at the Palace Theatre. After watching the match, ending around 1.00 am, I then watched Pip's vlog in the morning, and did not stop grinning (it did help knowing we won). If anyone should get a ticket, it should be Pip for his voluntary service to the fanbase.

Thanks for the background, and it doesn't surprise me, sadly. So time to move on from your owner, and let's hope you give us a decent game.
 
Any idea if there are any decent pubs nearby. Heard rumour of a cricket club that may be the one.

After this complete ****housery by FGR not putting a penny in at the ground
