Lee Power used chemtrail planes to generate the storm and rain deluge so that he could charge supporters twice.

Fact!

Just out of interest does anyone have any ideas of how much we are in to the Old Bill for policing such a game and will that be different for an evening kick off as I assume that plus stewarding etc will now need to be paid twice.

This is not a new thing I remember a game years back that was very borderline and all the talk in the stand pre kick off was that it would probably start and then be abandoned very quickly as the club would not have to give refunds and could charge for tickets for the new game, cannot remember for the life of me when it was though?

Ultimately they ain't going to make a fortune so if costs could be covered would probably have made some sense to discount in some way?

Not sure how the club can defend this, especially after initially telling people to keep their stubs. I've generally been supportive of Power but this lacks consideration towards those the club needs to attract.

I didn't think Power (who is obviously behind this decision as it's HIS club) could get any lower, but he has managed it.

It doesn't affect me as a ST holder, but I thought they would offer a 50% discount with Saturday's ticket.

Yes, there is additional police/stewarding costs, but surely these would be covered by the extra revenue. There would've been fans who couldn't make Saturday's game, but could make the rearranged match, and vice versa.

Oh come on. I don't agree with this but 'couldn't get any lower'? Really?

It is quite cynical of the club and a kick in the teeth for people who don't have season tickets etc so pick and choose which games they can afford. Not the lowest of the low but understand the sentiment...

Yeah, I can understand the unhappiness and there should be a compromise of some sort.

Not subscribing to the level of outrage though.

What an absolute prize cunt Lee Power is. He's just pissed off the people he can't afford to piss out, those on the outer circle of our support.

Our core fan base won't be affected because most of them will be season ticket holders and even if they weren’t a lot of them our door mats that will put up with any treatment anyway. The non-core support though it's like he's written the book on alienating them when they're already disillusioned.

Power Out. Cunt.

We've got an increased budget to maintain. Fair enough really.
