3,865 is their record attendance at the Jakeman.
A heavy party / nights drinking for me when I posted… a tad carried away.

I’ll still go for a 2-1 win to the Iron with a crowd of 2,650

Does anyone know why we were only given 650 tickets

Presumably because they don’t want 2,500 of us there.

Not every club get 600 standing they have a moveable segregation barrier and have apologised for the inconvenience to their supporters.
Obviously not interested in the extra money at their own supporters expense, that’s fair enough but scunny should reciprocate only allowing 650 of their fans when we play them at home especially when they’ll be at least 1500 spaces will go begging, not like it’s a real problem to give us all the stand.

I go to Boston sometimes, could get a ticket in the Home end.

I get the sentiment but I’d take their money, it will hurt more. Give them the whole 1500.

If you let them get away with it they’ll just carry on doing it.
Not in the least bit bothered about the money it’s about us the fans, many who aren’t getting chance to watch their team in our local derby this season.
If we can give them a full stand then so could they poxy though it is.

[Deereyme66]

What would be the logic of restricting them to 650 at GP and losing revenue? Some sort of twisted logic that next time they’ll up our allocation at their place? If so, that seems unrealistic.

[Awaywego]

First line Deerey!

[Deereyme66]

Yeah, they have got away with it. They’ll do what they like and continue to do so no doubt.

[Iron-awe]

Agree take their money when they come here, sorry Awaywego your noble fan sentiment bollocks doesn’t make any sense, we need as much money into the club as possible whenever we get chance to do it.

[Awaywego]

And don’t Boston need the money? Just the same.
Logic in football doesn’t go hand in hand especially for us, banned from Chelsea because their fans caused trouble at home! Scunthorpe beat Wealdstone 0-0! and there’s more.

[Iron-awe]

Boston run their club their way we need all the money we can get, that’s the reasoned sensible way, not that I’d expect you to grasp that when your in your Bolshi bullshit mood.

Last time the explanation given was they don’t want to relocate home supporter season ticket holders for away fans, can understand that logic for the sake of an extra 450 away fans.

They have also recently just been given planning permission for the 4th stand to be built to finish the stadium off too.

2-2

Went to Boston and had one of the 50 seat tickets. In the area allocated more empty seats than the 50 Iron fans !
No segregation at all in the seating area or below the stand in the food and toilet areas.
In fact we moved nearer to the centre of the stand for a better view.
Who ever arranges ticketing for away fans at Boston cost their Club thousands of pounds yesterday in lost revenue but also stopped Iron fans from watching their team.
