For 20 Sept a Tuesday night. Am I right in reading they are charging fans full amount for the replayed game? That is outrageous, Swindle Town are most aptly named...

That's how i've read it too. Due to high policing costs they're charging fans again

Yep no refunds and pay again if you want to go.
How does that work given less than 60 was played?

I appreciate costs but how can a freak of nature and less than an hour played warrant full cost for the replayed match. Swindon you are a disgrace, they receive double the money from our fantastic support! They are below Wycombe in my opinion now. Surely as a club we can appeal or question their ethics.... Sorry it has rubbed me up the wrong way especially as we all got soaked to the skin..

Perhaps BRFC could apply an early bird discount as a goodwill gesture.

So Swindle ticket holders get a free game. The rest - from both clubs - have to pay again? Covers costs apparently. Everyone should be in the same boat (ahem) Is it morally right.... Nope

The vast majority of these situations over the last few years have resulted in half price tickets - would have been an okay compromise.
To charge people £50+ plus two sets of travel is wrong in my opinion.

A bloody disgrace. My son and I get soaked to the skin and then can't get our money back! We can't make the rearranged game so that's £33 gone. Had a quick look on their forum and they're rightly not happy about it either.

There is no way I am paying them full price to go again. Wasn't expecting it to be free but thought it would be half price at worst.

Who knew - thought there was some kind of rule. The rules do say Rovers are due some kind of travel subsidy funnily enough. If Wycombe can provide a refund then so can Swindon in my opinion. |

Everyone going could at least hit Swindon in the wallet area by making sure they buy all their food and drink outside the ground. That should cost them a few thousand squid.

If it had been us at home I would have agreed with discounted prices for all fans for the return. As someone has already said Swindle ST holders will see one and a half games free while all other fans have to pay double. Irrespective of abandonment rules or times (not that I think there are any) I think good will of some kind should have been offered. Maybe they should think about why they require so many police, decisions like this do not help. It seems sad that we will probably not take as many fans to the return due to people not being able to make it and people refusing to go. DC and the boys will not have as much vocal support as they deserve. I just think, however small Swindon should have made some form of token discount. You cannot tell me all the money they are going to bank will be gone in policing costs!!
