My advise to anyone else who they try this on is to refuse to take the letter. The club chief officer (Doyle) does a good blag, goes to get on his radio etc, makes it look like he's going to get the police involved (hes an ex bobbie himself). But they cant do nothing, and he knows it. Just walk away. If they turn you away next game, then fair enough, but refuse the letter again, go back to the pub.
Easier just to take it, no? I got mine overturned after just one game, and at the time I was thinking of doing the same as Yeovil and just not bothering. Plus if you go for a meeting they've at least got to explain to you why.
