Swindon players of yore...Don't remember much about Andy Rollings but the second reference is surely Chalky rhyming slang for Nicky Tanner
Don't remember ever witnessing him. How many apps did he make? Wasn't his mum Molly Tanner, whose dance school pimped the original Robinettes to the club? Or am I making that up?

Think you made that one up, although I suppose that nugget of info may have passed me by. Tanner was essentially a short term answer to the Fridge being out for a while in 90-91, after he got clogged by Steve Bull. Tanner was a Gashead, who somewhat bizarrely Dalglish took a punt on in the late 80's, so we took him on loan from the Scousers, and he filled the gap before Ossie signed Nestor Lorenzo. I don't recall him as being anything other than average....certainly not completely terrible, and he went on to play 59 games for the Scousers up til 94

Macclesfield are selling dvds of the full match I just had a look on their website, it's out of stock. It's hard to believe they've sold that many already. Reading this, they are another club who need some investment.... http://www.mtfc.co.uk/news/article/club-statement-131113-1171645.aspx

I see instead of a refund, you get a free ticket for the Stevenage JPT game...

PR stunt at the time, nothing more. I just can't get my head around the fact we are charging £15 for a Johnstone’s Paint Trophy match against Stevenage Borough.

£15 doesn't sound outrageous to me to be honest.

Wembley final aside, for a JPT clash it's unheard of. At any club.
Sell them cheap, pile them in for the paint pot. Like we did against Barnet in 2012.

Someone's got to pay for them 'free' tickets

I actually think the club's 'excuse' that they weren't in control of the ticket sales in the first place is reasonable. And It's possible the 'loss' giving out free tickets means will be taken by Jed out of their wages.
On the other hand, the board are obviously pocketing the money to help build their giant doom laser.

I'm happy with this outcome, was going to Stevenage anyway and now I don't have to pay (in a way).

One of the comments on the adver site made me laugh. Someone complaining that he can't get to the Stevenage game and the reason he went to Macclesfield was it was close for him! Don't think the gesture was aimed at people who fucking live near Macclesfield!
