Cant find any information, is it all ticket or pay on the day available? Cheers I presume the game v Exeter must be all ticket.. as I saw on twitter that there are extra precautions being taken to prevent Exeter fans from getting in the home end (as they sold their allocation)

Let's try and get the JB dislikers back. ie Support the team/club even if they don't like the manager. As nice as this sentiment is; the fans I know who are boycotting are doing so because of his history of bad behaviour and how that reflects on the club as a whole. The only thing I think would have brought them back is him keeping his nose clean while employed by us. Obviously the Stendel thing happened before he joined us and he was found Not Guilty of that incident - however; the incident with his wife reinforces their perception of him and feel that it is not a good look for the club. Therefore they cannot actively support the club under his stewardship because of their own moral code. That is entirely their right and their decision and their moral code. What does not help is them being dug out by Rovers fans for their dislike of Barton. When they are mocked or when fans gloat at them about our on the pitch success or play down or glorify Barton's reputation then that will again reinforce their decision to stay away. The fanbase is still polarised and, it seems, the better we are playing on the pitch the more toxic some of our fans are off it Very well put!

I'd like to think that I too have a decent moral code though.

I don't think anyone has to justify there stance on this subject or any other ,its up to them. We all know by now what posters views are so no need to keep going over it surely. As to the season finale , agree lets all get behind the team whatever your views and cheer them on in person or at home , secret is after each little set back ,and there will be the odd one or two, we must bounce back quickly just like we did after Oldham. DC'S team had a habit of putting little runs of 4/5 games together not letting one loss turn into 2 and so on, up the Rovers!

I am really looking forward to watching us against Barrow, live. I haven’t watched us live since before Christmas because I’ve had to self isolate (or have chosen to) because of health issues and operations in the family. Really looking forward to it.
UTG!

It doesn’t define the person I am. UTG! Nobody is saying your moral code is defined by watching Rovers or not. But certainly some have made a moral decision to boycott. As Tilly's Thighs said "Everybody has to do what feels right for them". I personally haven't boycotted up to now - but would I if JB was found guilty of knocking his wife about and not sacked? Almost certainly. But there would also be many that would still continue to go - especially if we are doing well. Are they defined by their moral code? Absolutely not. It's up to them.

What with it being a huge game, large attendance, rumours if Exeter buying tickets that they shouldn't (more fool them) I'm surprised it's still a 3pm kick off.

I'm sure he will again have a very competent legal team looking to ensure he escapes without punishment (as is his right). But for some; the very fact that this has happened vindicates their viewpoint of him being a violent thug who should not be in a prominent position at the football club that they love.. and there is no requirement for them to await for the LEGAL decision to be made upon his guilt for them to hold this view or not.

If he did the things he is accused of then, yes, I want him to be found "Guilty". If he didn't - then I would want him found "Not Guilty". Is that not the same for everyone?

I agree you would hope that everyone who dislikes JB would be delighted at a not guilty result but because a few have already made their decisions to not attend matches prior to any verdict makes me think they want him out reagrdless, Of course I want justice and have always said that IF he is found guilty he has to go but I will wait until the process has finished before I reluctantly have to join the Barton Out brigade

Others have decided based on his long history of violent conduct and have had their feelings reinforced by the more recent allegations. If the trial proves beyond doubt that there was no case to answer then that should be enough to win back some of the "haters" perhaps? But my suspicion is that the case will be dropped due to insufficient evidence or some legal technicality or something - and not really be enough to completely change people's opinions of him. But we shall see.

Agreed need it rocking the Gas are coming! Cant get the skids the saints are coming out of my head now 🏴☠️😂 Great song Puckle - got to be the original by the Skids though Definitely think we should ramp up the pre match volume like Northampton did in semi final play offs it was uncomfortable and they battered us, we need some skids, Damned, and Libertines as well as the favourites.
