There’s a button I have at the end of the messages next to “reply topic” that says “subscribe” so probably you have one that says “unsubscribe”?
If those rules still apply or clubs abide by them we should have had 2800 tickets on a sale or return for the Stoke game last season but we didn’t. The club released a statement saying they took a small allocation as they would have had to pay for the rest even if they didn’t sell.We always take a reduced allocation of tickets for all away games.
Sorry but there seems to be a misunderstanding here.
With a 28,000 stadium we can ask for up to 2,800.
If you read the Handbook that I posted above a half, that is 1,400, are on a sale or return basis – the remainder have to be bought up front by the visiting team 4 weeks in advance – they are not sale or return. If they don’t sell then we are left with them on our hands.
Yep – it looks like 1924/25 and 1925/26 they wore the plain shirts.
And yes please I’d love a copy if you scan for me.
(Have PMd you my e-mail address)
I presume we only asked for 1900 tickets, ie one tier. The way it sometimes works is if you ask for the rest of the allocation and don’t sell them, you have to pay for them all anyway. We would NOT have sold 4000 tickets.This is what happened with Stoke away last season.
Visiting teams are entitled to 10% of the capacity or 3,000 if the capacity is more than 30,000, with half of that being sale or return. If you ask for more than that the remainder have to be bought by the club, so they have to ensure they will sell or be out of pocket.
“7. Unless otherwise agreed by the Board or between the Clubs, each Home Club shall make
available to its Visiting Club:
7.1 3,000 tickets or, if the capacity of the Home Club’s ground is less than 30,000, such
number of tickets as is equal to 10 per cent. of its ground capacity; and, whether or not
that allocation is taken up,
7.2 tickets for a minimum of 10 per cent. of the Home Club’s disabled spectator
accommodation.
8. At least half of the tickets referred to in Rule J.7 above must be made available on a sale or
return basis and the balance must be ordered by the Visiting Club (subject to the conditions
set out in Rule C.100) at least 4 weeks before the League Match to which they relate.”
(Premier League Handbook)Thanks, bronx. Yes I’ve got that book too which is where I now have the info that they had plain shirts 1924-26 changing to the amber and black hoops in 1926.
If no-one can provide any help then I’ll have to get myself down to the History Shop and plough through papers hoping for one little line of “a wave of blue shirts pressed forward” or similar. I just hoped that maybe there was the off-chance someone could resolve it easily.

Really have to admit defeat on how many was on.
However scorers in the 4-0 were Higham hat trick and McDermott
4-2 were Twiddle (2), Fielding and Taberner, and
7-0 were Murdoch 3, Morgans 2, Edmunson and Sleight.I’ll try to do better in the future :cheer:
According to my records they’ve never been in the same league.
In 1959-61 Rovers were in teh Cheshire League while Latics were in the Lancashire Combination. In 1961 Latics moved to the Cheshire League while Rovers moved to the Lancashire Combination.

Other clubs have them – they’re quite widespread – and no, they won’t get you anywhere else, just as your bank card will not get you someone else’s cash from a machine.
They’re chipped.
Yeah, but nothing is foolproof; there got to be a loophole. We need advice from a top Techno Geek ( assuming you are not that person ). Failing that, I’ll let you know if it works on Sunday.[/quote]
Question for you then is – it looks like we might just sell out our end. So are you going to risk that your system will work and go without a ticket and maybe not get in?
