v Boreham Wood

[Reading Rebel]

£16 for concessions and £20 on the coach with segregation in place and no clubhouse/bar, I think I'll give this one a miss.

There is  a long and very heartfelt statement by the Boreham Wood chairman on their site now lots of praise for Scott and the team but a lot of insight regarding running a club worth a read imo unless one of our savvy members(Glen?) wants to put it on here.

Income has gone down since they got relegated so the chairman wants more supporters to turn up to bring more money into the club but then decides to lose money by segregating and banning away supporters from their clubhouse?

Doesn't make a lot of sense.

National league tv Dazn are streaming the game.

Seems to be some confusion on whether this game is segregated or not.

Hopefully BW will come back with a definitive answer.

There's a message on Facebook I tried to put on here but failed It says it's segregated but might change Depending on how many tickets they sell I suppose

This statement on their ticket sales site is mis-leading and false.

As it stands the game is segregated unless we here differently.

To add insult to injury the word is if we want to have Rebels Radio at the game there will be a fee involved.

They used to charge a fee for radio but this year they've just been flat refusing requests apparently

[Irishadrian]

They believe that away fans who can't listen to the game will pay and turn up at the game!!

They're struggling to increase attendance numbers and think by stopping away clubs broadcasting the game live it'll force/encourage some supporters to turn up rather than stay at home.

Of course that'll be pointless as Dazn are showing the game live for £9.99.

So they think that not having the radio broadcast will make me travel to the game from France?

Seems logical to me SR1965😂😂. What time is your ferry?

Clearly an backwards thinking club. There are a few about and having poor away facilities, no radio broadcasts and more ridiculous pricing are indicators of that.

Now official that this game is NOT segregated and away fans will have full use of the club house/facilities.

[Irishadrian]

Did they refuse to allow Rebels Radio to broadcast?

So, is everyone going now, or was it just the latest thing to moan about?

Was thinking of going but the #segregationgate put me off. Now I see it’s on tv I may well take that option as I’m going to Kidderminster and December to January pay day for me is 6 weeks! 😬

Yes, from the statement put out on FB etc.
