What's going on!!!
Cant ever remember reading a thread on an open forum about such a contentious issue and so many good valid points made and no its their f'ing fault etc.

Nice one guys been a really good discussion ;D
Very mature! The whole situation, in my view is completely frustrating, the current scenario doesn't have to be as it is, and needless bother, anger, and criticism has been levelled at both clubs. The whole thing has been poorly handled (I don't care by who, but that's how I view it, due to the logical solution that's staring us all in the face).

On Saturday fans safety will needlessly (that word, again) will be put in danger, both from the ground which is clearly not fit for purpose, and from fellow 'supporters' who will turn up looking for trouble which will have been enabled due to the ticketing situation which could so easily have been avoided.

Ultimately fans anger and frustration should concentrate on how, seemingly, the league haven't taken our safety in consideration when both clubs went to them to request the fixture be moved. I'm certain representatives from both clubs (volunteers!) have worked hard for the solution, only for the league to stick two fingers up.

That's where my frustration is right now. Maybe it's me being a bit 'thick' but I just can't get my head around why this fixture is being allowed to go ahead as it is, when there is a completely safe alternative that would benefit both clubs and the fans. It's ludicrous. Maybe that frustration is mis-placed. I don't know.

t's just a game of bloody football, ain't it!

I don't necessarily disagree but playing devil's advocate...How would you feel if Kettering had a tough away game switched to a home game in these circumstances? My view would immediately be it's not fair that they get an extra home game just because not all of their fans can go. It's not going to be "unsafe" at Stourbr*dge and it won't be easy for our fans to get tickets in the home end (or any easier than it is for any segregated game) because you need a purchase history on their website.

Reading some of the shameful comments about our wonderful club on social media makes me despair. I almost long for the time when we had 11 fans at Crawley on a Tuesday night, life was simpler then and far less toxic.
The internet and social media has turned us into a vile uncaring species.

Andy, Stour are getting it even worse! Blame blame blame, doom and gloom, this is going to happen, thats going to happen........ not saying it's ideal but the key as always is go to the football and behave. It's not hard. Before the chav brigade for that friendly a couple of years back fecked it up for all of us we used to stand together and not have barely a peep between us. Those going, I hope you try and enjoy and be safe. There'll be plenty of stewards and probably police too so just report anything that worries you. Glad I'm not going to be honest!
