Yes so nothing new and you would think a modern football match would be easier to manage.
Out of interest did you ever hear anything more from Gordon?

I was never in contact with him, only when I met him at the BT thing and Arsenal away.

Fair enough. Just wondered if he was ok and keeping well as quite a few years have passed since then.

Why have they only been given 5500 ???
Maybe they don't think any more will go at £45!
Prices are now set by the home side and I don't think the away side are guaranteed a say on it. The prices must just not be higher than home tickets (the idea being to prevent e.g. Shrewsbury charging West Ham £40 and home fans £20).

If they ask for 10k and only sell 6k, they're left paying for the 10k's worth.Why have they only been given 5500 ???
I assume the allocation is just the top tier which means the robbing red tests can charge what they want as there will be no scum in that tier. £45 is nothing short of a disgrace and I hope that Derby fans boycott the game. If they charged us that I hope we would tell them to f**k offMaybe they don't think any more will go at £45!

The thing is that Derby still get their share (45% or something) of the gate money, so the whole ground at £45, and the club are happy.
Reading last year had the same thing, and subsidised it to £30. Utd do this every season.
