because you'll have people who are not students trying to get in for student prices.they're completely right to ask for ID.

Yea but presumably when you bought the ticket you will have been asked for student ID as was the case when my father bought my ticket for me

Meaning you can buy a ticket while showing ID with someone else's picture on it?

Proves the sense in asking for ID at the gate.

for god he wasnt too clear on what he was saying

Apparently, the capacity has been set at 5100, allowing 2000 for the Church hill terrace & Blue stand (all Derry) & 3100 for the rest of the ground, Rovers were hoping that the FAI would review the arrangements and increase the capacity, afaik they were to confirm on Saturday.
In the meantime they have erected crush Barriers at the railway end & the fence on the Town side of the pitch is demolished and the construction of a new wall is underway.

By the way does anyone else think the tickets are a joke? A photocopier and some yellow print paper and you are away with it. Word is that Derry fans are already wise to this and have "extra" tickets in production!!!

Have to agree 100%. The tickets are no better than cloakroom tickets. I can foresee major holdups at the turnstiles because of fake tickets.
Best advice, come early.

There is a Sligo Rovers Stamp on the ticket which alot of people have not noticed so if they do produce tickets they will not get in!

We have 150 left

**feo123** · 23/10/2006, 12:05 PM

theres no stamp on my ticket! its a joke

**SRFC Head** · 23/10/2006, 12:10 PM

Are many Derry fans staying around after the match or will there be a mass exidus once you lose ;-)

Could be a cracker of a night in town after the game.

**gustavo** · 23/10/2006, 12:45 PM

I dont think its a bank holiday up north on monday, so probably wont be that many hanging round after.

dont panic over tickets there will be plenty available right up to sat in outlets in sligo town. the uptake is not as brisk as anticipated according to my very reliable source. thes tickets are of course all adult

**feo123** · 23/10/2006, 8:54 PM

your worse than a tabloid...''my reliable source'' lol.....who is it? tell,tell!

**Shedzer** · 23/10/2006, 11:51 PM

Derry have sold out there 2000 tickets and are appartantly confident of getting counterfit tickets to work...

**SRFC Head** · 24/10/2006, 7:52 AM

Well Derry have to use a different entrance so hopefully they will count them on the way in to make sure they don't use counterfit. This could turn into a disaster if Derry fans take the ****. If Rovers run it right Derry fans will only be taking their own fans tickets.

I know the club should have taken more care when producing tickets.
