We were lucky enough to get one of the recently released tickets for the Scunny match, unfortunately there are two us hoping to travel from Cambridge.
So with the very remote chance that anyone has a spare come Saturday please PM me, on top of the ticket price I will buy you a pint/gin/Bovril as a reward for your endeavour.
Regardless I hope all lucky ticket holders have a truly memorable day.

Sorry to be obvious but seriously anyone knows of any spare tickets please let me know, many thanks been supporting the gas for nearly 60 years and don’t want to miss this match (like thousands of other gashead). Fingers crossed UTG

If anyone has a spare ticket PM me. I will then return it to the Club because I said I wouldn't attend games this season.
(That was a joke).
Regardless of the result at the Mem and Barrow I hope everyone has a fantastic day out.
Automatic promotion or a great chance of getting to Wembley. Beer o'clock whatever happens.
It's been a strange old season...

I see someone on one of the Rover's Facebook pages was asking £200 for a ticket.
They (rightfully) got the abuse they deserve.
EDIT: But I also see someone offered to pay that price!

If somebody can afford to pay £200, why didn't they just buy a ticket weeks ago, rather than wait to see if this game would be crucial or a dead rubber? |

Before anyone offers me a ticket at £200, please don't, I'm desperate but not that desperate.

You never know another’s circumstance @bathgas it could be that they have illness or many other thing or it could be that they want to be part of an historical day. personally, i will be on the glos road and will see if anyone has a ticket as, often, there are a few but, if not, i will stay around the ground and be part of the celebrations IF we do manage to go up. I have done this before and managed to blag a ticket. |

But does it really matter when we need those fair weather fans to turn back to coming regularly ? We had a lot from Kingswood , come back with ST’s but, by the time we got relegated, they had stopped going. I would just love to see the old faces of what used to be regular fans. Tony Skuse came back to the gas when he knew he was not going to be around too much longer, i don’t think anyone would have called him a fair weather fan |

The club needs every fan, supporter, odd match customer it can get, as does any business. So, if you do not have a season ticket, if you chose not to commit to the final game of the season earlier on, then expect to pay an awful lot more when supply becomes really constrained. I dont get the bleating. |

If we had had a twenty thousand plus capacity stadium we would of filled it for this fixture, crazy that when you think it is only fourth tier but a fact nonetheless. Someone really has to grasp the nettle at our club and get the ball rolling now on a new stadium if this club is to really push on forward.

I dont get the bleating. I have said , many times before, that i used to feel Rovers were my extended family and so it really upsets me that one or two of that family would want to make money from other supporters of our club, i know i would not dream of it and have had tickets given me in the past. I am not bleating but am just upset that greed can come into this, i have always thought that, even if we argue, all gas are fair, or fairer than most other clubs. It seems i have been proven wrong and that this is not the case. That genuinely hurts me at a level many would maybe not understand. Rovers got me through 4 deaths and 2 break up. It’s like real care in the community but those days are gone and it saddens me, greatly Les. I just could not do it, even if i was brassic skint, i would not profit from another of our supporters, i would if it was an away fan though |

I and a couple of others, who have been sort of labelled as ner do well types, have always said success starts on the pitch. Get a decent team and the fans will come. I don’t know about 20K for this match but it would be 15 for sure and i agree on the stadium |

Some of the youngsters think that it is funny to post things like that, and get people's hopes up. |

Does your matchday ticket have a" not for resale" printout? If so could those profiteering from this game either be banned( ST holders) or cash sales be picked up for touting? Only saying like 🤔
