Well in 2022 loss was reduced from 5 million in 2021 to just
over a million, and turnover increased from 13 million to 27
million , Admin expenses however grew from 11 million to 15
million , total comprehensive loss grew from 513k to 1.5 million
But to cut a long story short if it wasn’t for Jillings and Pope
we would be in the brown stuff

The club sent out an email yesterday announcing a repeat of the
"State of Play" session they held last year as a forum for LD
and key staff to update the fans on how things stand, plans,
etc, along with a Q&A. It'll be live-streamed as well as being
available to watch later.
Regarding the kick-off time, it's not great that it's been
moved. While some of the move might have been with a thought
about boosting the "spectacle", reading the way its' phrased, I
think there were also some concerns raised from external sources
(BT Police, Richmond Council, Met, Train Cos, etc) relating to
other events taking place across the capital that day.
Last thing, Si, can you either delete or amend that link in your
post? It's making the page more or less unreadable!

I would assume that the number of tickets already "sold" also
includes those of ST holders who now can't go?
I'm away for the March weekend, so can't make it. If it was a
standard Stoop game, I would've given my tickets up for resell,
but as it's over the road at the sodding concrete mausoleum,
that option isn't available, so why would I bother going to the
effort of saying I can't make it?
The same thing applies for the Bath match. Can't make that, get
screwed. Yet another reason to loathe going over the road.

They surely can't be - or the HQ ticket site wouldn't work.
If you don't claim your seat(s) then that just means there's
another seat on sale visible on the seat map.

I think Kermitpower is, quite rightly, pointing out that, unlike
your Stoop games, you can't put a "big game" seat up for resale
which is a bummer if you don't like them. You pay for it in your
season ticket and either claim it or not.

The implication from Kermitpower is that he is claiming a ticket
and then not showing up. Surely, this doesn't make sense? You
just wouldn't claim your ticket - would you?

Why not? The game was originally in December when we could have
made it; like Kermitpower, we're away in March.
As he said, "I would've given my tickets up for resell, but as
it's over the road at the sodding concrete mausoleum, that
option isn't available"

From the original email announcing the postponement of BG 14 in
December:
--- Quote ---
> This email refers to all tickets associated with the 7-digit
Supporter ID, that can be found on your Big Game 14 confirmation
email.

> • If you have already claimed your free ticket to Big Game 14,
it will be automatically transferred to the rescheduled fixture.
You do not need to do anything if you still wish to attend.

> • If you claimed your ticket but are unable to attend the
fixture on Saturday 4 March, please let us know via the link
below and we will ensure your selected seat is released for
General Sale.
