moanthebairns Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 i've already set the alarm for 5 to 10 I have a feeling i'll hear busy tone all day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan Vojáček Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Doesn't mention any additional allocation Last part of the statement reads as pretty scathing of DFC tbh I've no idea if it'll be cash gates or whatever, but I'd recommend just coming in the home end and behaving. I remember having Peterhead, Raith and Brechin fans in with us a few seasons a go and it was quite good fun. The Rangers fans, not so much.Not quite sure what else we could be expected to do tbqh. We've shared a league for 5 seasons, and this is the first time Falkirk will be close to selling out their allocation. Saves anybody being stranded out on the streets come Saturday afternoon.

They probably wish it was a closed-doors game tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just sell tickets via FFC. Bizarre to use "vouchers" and then ask people to pay on the day anyway. In all seriousness as well btw 2,000 capacity is a nonsense at this level. Fair play on staying in the league repeatedly with a small budget and park of course but most Junior teams have bigger stadiums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pleslie99 Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 What we need is an 4000 capacity all seater stadium built on a floodplain in the middle of nowhere outside the town! That way all the Falkirk fans could be accommodated! If only our board would come up with such a plan........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get it right up yeez.Your board should've informed us sooner that they expect a large crowd. Instead they release unprofessional, tear stained bitch statements. We clearly don't have time to print tickets and pander to their drama queen needs.Our 2000 capacity stadium has been sold out TWICE in our entire time in the Championship and Falkirk haven't even come close to filling it in the past.We shouldn't be going out of our way to accomodate other teams IMO.

NavyBlueArmy1876 Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 What exactly does proof of address mean? Are Dumbarton going to refuse entry to a home fan without a Dumbarton address? And stop selling vouchers at 1.30? Pretty mental imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does that mean that someone who claims to be a Dumbarton supporter, but lives in Glasgow, won't get in? If I were a Falkirk fan who didn't have a ticket, I'd scrounge an electricity bill from a pal / workmate / relative who lived in the West of Scotland and get through early enough on Saturday to get my voucher.

Why is JinkyBairn permanently seething about everything (other than when he said thanks to us for getting a draw at Tannadice a couple of days ago)? With a bit of luck he won't have to worry about it next season as Falkirk are certain to be in the Premiership where they belong, aren't they?

Hughsie Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 I'm not bothered. Does the game really mean that much? I don't really mind if we finish 2nd or 3rd. Embarassing from the club to have a pop at Dumbarton too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bring Back Paddy Flannery Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 The proof of address is a new ticket buying regulation introduced by the SFA/SPFL or whoever makes the rules.Just because you don't live in Dumbarton doesn't mean you don't get one. It's a surveillance thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
