I wish to record my respects in memory of David willicombe. Because , unfortunately I can't attend the game today. David captained the team unfortunately sustaining repeated broken arms. RIP David.

Great victory for the team and coaching staff. I could crush a grape, no two. I'll have another cream egg

Tense but great game to watch, also pleasing to hear that Martin Offiah is now working with the club. Although what has happened if in 2005 a sell out was 25004 and in 2023 a sell out crowd is 24275

That's weird isn't it you'd think they'd want bums on all seats

Thanks for explaining that for me, it does seem a shame as 858 is quite a chunk of seats that can never be filled in this circumstance which at £26 per ticket is worth upto £22308

Didn't sell all the other reserved seats anyway so not a big deal. Hope some of the guys who went yesterday who don't normally go enjoyed it and get a taste for going to more games
