Rearranged fixtures

[Pigman]

Arlesley not to be pay what you want thanks to SL rules - nice to see they have the interests of fans at heart eh?

It doesn't bother me as I always pay the full price anyway, plus I wasn't able to attend the abandoned fixture - but come on! How is that justified by the SL if the club were willing to take a potential hit at the gate?

Hohum, nothing surprises me anymore

Sayes it will be played under "cup fixture rules", so I suppose that means Arlesey get half the takings. Nice for them as there are no great costs for such a short journey

[Pigman]

But it's a league game? Why should they get any take from the gate?

Anyone "in the know" know??

[bozzer]

Those are the league rules we have been told.

[Pigman]

Thanks bozzer - wasn't having a pop at the club, just nonsensical rules of the SL (again) !!

Arlesley don't get a cut of the gate receipts though do they??

[bozzer]

I know you weren't Pigman, we thought the rules would be the same as the UCL hence we announced it as a Pay What You Want on the day, but we were informed their rules are different and it had to be played under cup rules which splits the gate between the two clubs.

[Pigman]

Ah, so they do get a cut of the takings ....... I'll stay at home then

[sussexdiamond]

"under cup rules" does that mean I cannot use my season ticket?

[bozzer]

You are right Sussex it has to be an All Pay fixture.

I refer you all to my comments on the SL from the No 1 shirt debacle thread - bloody stupid and designed to piss people off!!
