If doing NOPM, I'd suggest the following away games to be avoided.

Cup games (revenues shared)

Gillingham (Scally's letter in support)

MK Dons (speaks for itself.)

If doing NOPM....you'll do well to get your hands on any tickets for most away games.....

Notts County - Previously hired Lee Hughes.

Walsall - Chairman ripping them off over rent of the Bescott.

Also buy tickets direct from away ground direct or on the gate so SISU do not get the 7.5% commission.

Add them to the list then.

Who so far?

Port Vale, Notts County, Gillingham, MK Dons, and Walsall.

Doncaster, Hull and Swansea - all greedy scumbags akin to SISU trying to pay peppercorn rents for new stadia

Or more likely that they don't go up, and we're relegated.

Anyway they're on the list for accommodating SISU.

you do realise that the club gets 5% commission on any/all away tickets it sells don't you?

I thought that was only tickets bought in advance? Not tickets on the gate.

Best avoid them all then

However, there are some where a statement needs to be explicitly made. Even better to show our awareness, would be to substitute AFC Wimbledon for MK Dons that particular day.

Substituting a club for Gillingham is harder, as Charlton would be the obvious one... until they started running free coaches from Kent! Maidstone Utd would be a good substitute however, a club that lost its ground, backed a gamble on planning permission that never came... the symbolic pathos of going to Maidstone instead of Gillingham would be apt.

Talking of tickets for away games. Would it be legal if Sisu/Otium came up with the ploy of only selling tickets for away games to season ticket holders? I'm at the point now where I believe anything is possible.

Anyone know when it's best to cancel my Sky subscription? I've heard they are giving £360,000 to league one clubs this season. A 6.6% INCREASE!

NOPM!

Crewe and PNE don't seem to like us much and both seemed to find the whole thing vaguely amusing when I had a quick look!
