I was told a couple of days ago that it would be on the Turf. The club haven’t advertised it as yet but the PL have.

The results page is showing yesterday's game against Colchester as a 1-2 defeat rather than the correct 2-0 win.

Just go into the Ticketing page on BFC... its easy.

Or go to tkt office on the night and they will print one if you show your ticket.

The final paragraph of the club's match report on the website contains a link for st holders to use to claim their tickets for the match on Friday.

That would be far too simple for us and I've no idea why not. That's what we did for U21 games until this season, now you have to get a match ticket in advance.

In fairness to the club, I think it probably helps them so they can have an idea of how many may be coming

Could it be that season tickets are set to allow supporters into certain sections of the ground but for this match only the Bob Lord Stand will be open to which the season tickets don't allow access ?? Just a thought.

That would make sense if the season tickets actually triggered the turnstile so you could enter

In this situation all you need to do is show the ticket to the operator who will press the pedal to allow entry

They’re manually operated anyway, aren’t they?

I agree it’s a bit of a faff I could live without. Maybe points related (hope so!)? That said, it’s really easy to ‘buy’ one online. For those who haven’t done it before: buy as you normally would and then change the drop-down box to “Season Ticket - £0.00” when you get to the basket.

They are manually operated. Yes, easy to get online but I think a lot just turn up for the u21 games and then have to go to the ticket office. Last one, there was a lengthy queue at the ticket office.

You don't get points for all the under 21/18 matches at TM ... I've been to 3 now this season and only got 10 points for one of them :roll:

Yeah, bit of a joke that Boss! Well (consistently) managed and it could be a good incentive for younger fans to boost their points.

I knew I got points for one of them so asked why not all, and it fell on deaf ears at the club 🤣

You have to wonder sometimes!

For those games I’d be giving 20 points to encourage people to bring their kids who might not be in the same band as them. But if 10 points is the agreed upon figure, at least apply it consistently.
