       I see from their website, that for their friendlies, they're
       expecting people to get tickets by odering ONLINE!
       Don't they ever learn? ::)  Tickets for friendlies? :o
       When they tried to go down that route, attendances for league
       games dropped! What about the supporters that don't have that
       option?
       I hope the Rams aren't going to do that!

       with no maximum (hopefully), no need to buy in advance????

       Well the Rams have copied them with the plastic pitch.
       Personally if I can't pay at the gate with either cash or card
       then I probably won't be going.

       The only thing I can see this NOT being the case,is that if
       Boris and his crew state that if "Non Elite" football can only
       let in a percentage of their ground capacity, (like last year
       where the capacity allowed was 400 at the Rams), then every
       game(whether it be league or cup competition), would be
       classified as "ALL TICKET" and if you didn't have a ticket for
       that game, you didn't get in to watch it. Obviously, these
       tickets would be on a "1st come, 1st served" basis. I would like
       to think that the club would not only sell them online but would
       be open , say one or two evenings in the week, for people to
       call in, if they haven't got the facility to order online.
       I would hope that the club would not issue season tickets this
       year, if that were the case, as it would give everybody a fair
       chance to see a game.

       at the moment, believe, if you had season tickets last year, get
       a new one free for this season. Believe last season, ticket
       season holders was a small amount, so maximum was deducted from
       that total, then the rest was alloccated for online, buy at gate
       etc etc. Hopefully that will not be the case. Long time until
       Julyf or the opening of the 3g pitch game (1st home game).
       With the 3g pitch construction, no working bees, so have not
       heard any rumors etc.

       Ok Bill thanks.
       So what was the average gate for the past Two Seasons, 170 -200.
       So where is this 400 coming from, 200 from the kids getting for
       free is all wrong IMO.
       Us older supporters need to turn up and pay at the gate, not
       have to make a special trip to buy a ticket in the week.
       Finally most of these kids don't watch the match, they just run
       around making a nuisance while the genuine supporters try to
       watch the game.

       These are the figures:   2019-2020   Average Gate 201
       2018-2019   Average Gate 211
       Sorry to say this but 400 is b******s

       let's hope there's no maximum - get 500 plus. Kids get in free
       from their payment into the youth teams, one parent gets in
       free. They spend on drinks etc, so club gets quite a bit of
       money from them. As you say though. need to help the older
       supporters to get in when there's a maximum. Fingers crossed!!

       So the club is only interested in money and not the loyalty of
       their supporters.

       Hey, don't shoot the messenger![emoji6]
       400 was laid down by the FA(under instructions, as from the 31st
       August). As Ramsgate are "Step4", this was mentioned in the
       attached. Deal (in Step5) had a max. of 300(which under the
       circumstances) proved more than enough.

       Who knows, this might change but it all depends on "you know
       who" and "you know what"
