Most clubs have a very clear zero tolerance policy on away fans in home stands.

But......its Swindon Town.

Wrexham haven't got STFC away tickets on their website at the moment.
I think this is likely to be a case of squeezing what they can from out of town Town fans rather than selling the tickets to Wrexham fans.
Payment would need to be made and an address given, you'd hope that some rigour went into the person taking the payment if their address is: 12 Jones street, Wrexham

Are Swindon fans really going to be staying in hotels for a home game? Granted we do have out of town fans that may be interested but surely this is aimed more at Wrexham fans?

They're trying to sell to tourists that our interested in Wrexham rather than "real" Wrexham fans.

Its been a hot topic at Wrexham home games with some tickets ringfenced for day trippers.

How many Wrexham fans do you think frequent the stfc website or follow our twitter account?

anecdotally most people come in from outside swindon to watch games. Transport on boxing day is a bag of dicks, I might be overly charitable in thinking that it's trying to appeal to us out of towners to make a bloody good day and night of it

It is strange. We’d virtually sell out anyway. The club can’t make much out of the hotel/grub bit so what’s the point.

Building links. I can't blame the club for trying, but their messaging has been naïve with us cynical fucks around (or they're being dickheads, who knows)

If we don't win a game between now and then we won't sell out!

Not if it endangers people. Families in the DRS and the Wrexham firm decide to buy these tickets for a dust up... It's avaricious and shows no regard for our fans. A perfect parable of the Morfuni era.

Is this different in set up to any other hospitality options?

The hotel option is new isn't it, and suggests it is appealing to 'out of towners' and just happens to be for the Wrexham game...

Yeah i'd assume the chief steward and the fuzz might want to have a chat about what efforts are in place to separate the fans

Quite in fitting with Clems reign of terror then.
