Agree withe the notion of a passport, like Paul said, in a Town like this all links between the clubs can be good, however in my experience of the three sports there is a limited crossover between speedway and football (although seeing Bowden schmoozing in his STFC scarf over at Blunsdon makes me feel a little sick), I would say that the hockey crowds are IMHO not the sort of people who would wach the football or speedway from my evelaution fo them - perhaps only on family packages.  It has to be said thought that this bears little resemblance to the ground redevelopment.

Got to say, I'd be quite keen on a joint football/(ice)hockey season ticket.

Only problem being face-off at the hockey being 5pm, could make for a pretty speedy journey to the link centre if Town were playing thet day.

The CG-Link Centre journey is quite easy, as face off is usually 5.45, i do it a few times a year. Its a good evening at the Ice Hockey to be fair.

Mty mistake, when i went out earlier in the season it started at 5,  true though it's a good night out, even if the whole U-S-A sporting experience is a bit false.

If Mr Blodwen mentions this again, you may wish to point him in the direction of Newcastle.

Freddy Shepherd tried the whole Sporting Club Newcastle thing whilst I was living up there and from my recollection it fell fairly firmly on its arse. If poeple want to go to these other sports they will tend to anyway!

The combined football ground/ice hockey stadium would be interesting though, I would love to know what that looks like in his head!
