**** off BT

[ThurrockShrimper]

Is the tv money shared, or, just to the hosting team?

I'd imagine Dover would probably get the lion's share.....

£75k each!

Dear Ron, stick this in the January war chest please

 

[Another Surrey Shrimper]

I understand you can't buy a day pass for BT so they are pretty much making you go down the illegal route if you want to watch and aren't an existing customer.

I would've gone to this one, had it been on a Saturday, but no Gravesend ferry service on a Sunday, and National Rail can **** off if they think I'm paying £52 for a return ticket to Kent from Tilbury.

Group saver?

 

[rigsby]

I hope that we'll be hearing the refrain of "Sol is on his way to Dover" ahead of this game.

That sounds a bit flat to me

What's the ground capacity at Dover ?...impressive that the away end holds up to 2,000 - esp for a non league team

About 6000ish but the away terrace is big

Group saver?

good point, 3 or more people isn't it?

Get to Stratford International and get Advance Singles to Dover Priory there and back - 9.16 change at Ashford gets in at 10.35 - £13.50 each way. Train back at 14.58 change at Ashford back to Stratford at 16.14.

I have t sport for free on my package, so one of the happy few if l don't get a ticket.

Me too, but only on my phone. However, they can't stop me casting it to my TV!

Potential banana skin to be shown live on national tv

Nah, we won't win that....

Yeah so that's £27 and you can add another £20 Just to get to Stratford.

ESPN Plus had the FA Cup over here last year, but I don't think they started until the 3rd round. No sign of the game on the schedule at the moment. For any US based Shrimpers, ESPN Plus is well worth the $4.99/month - they show loads of football, including every non-Premiership game televised in England.

 

[in the know]

Just hoping that someone out there has intimate insider 'sky tv' knowledge.
I read that sky and BT had done a deal and towards the end of 2019 you would be able to get BT sport as part of your sky package. It would save me having another row with BT about their buying extortionately package again!

Buy at least 3 days in advance - it's £10.30 return to Stratford via West Ham and walk through Westfield.

It's nowhere near £52

 

[WhiteCliffs]

I used to have a 'Young Persons' railcard, which was pretty nifty, but at the ripe old age of 30, I don't think National Rail consider me to be 'young' anymore!

Considering I paid 23 quid to go there and back to Tranmere away the other day, it's more out of principle!

26-30 railcard you know.

 

[Maldon Shrimper]

Not surprised that this game choosen for TV it will effect attendance but £75000 not to be sniffed at just what the club needs

 

[Willis]

Travellers Joy in Rayleigh has BT Sports. Hopefully they’ll be showing the game.

 

[SheldonW65]

Bollocks to that, next to no time for pre-match boozing. Will cut the away attendance by 50%

But it leaves the entire afternoon to get ****ed and depressed after we lose
