Match Preview

Regarding the comment in the preview appertaining to admission charges I found this information on Wisbech's OWS:-

Admission Prices

Admission to most games is on the day.

League and League Cup games are £6 for adults and £4 concessions (children under 16 and those over 60). Some games each paying spectator may bring in one child under 11. Other children under 11 will be charged at £2 per child.

Information in connection with parking:-

Car parking: There is free car parking at the stadium. Please DO NOT park on Lynn Road as this could cause traffic problems on what is a very busy road. Similarly, we would like to minimise distruption to local residents, so please avoid parking in Windmill Gardens or Old Lynn Road/Kirkgate Street.

Looks to be a very decent ground, certainly at our level. Large covered terrace behind the goal, hopefully we can a bit of atmosphere going.

Will me and THE DRUM be allowed to get back together :?: :?: :?:

A bit of information from Wisbech's OWS appertaining to Fenland Stadium:-

The club’s current ground is The Elgoods Fenland Stadium and hosted its first game on Saturday 14th August 2010, an FA Cup Extra Preliminary Round which attracted a crowd of 663. The current record attendance is 830 for an FA Cup Preliminary round replay against local rivals March Town United which the Fenmen won 3-2.

There is a 118-seater stand which was moved from its temporary home at Outwell and 50 metres of covered terracing behind each goal.

Interesting that the capacity from that site is a precise 1118 which would be 118 seats and a finger in the air 1000 for standing. ;)

Been reading their forum all season and there has been plenty of moaning about the admission price being £7. Most expensive in the UCL, possibly anywhere at step 5. Some of their fans say this is why attendances are down, others claim it's because their team is crap :lol:

I believe this is the information that Formic used when writing the match preview. It would appear that the information appertaining to admission charges on their OWS may be incorrect.

Must say I'm a bit disappointed we're not getting to go to their old ground, while I'm sure it was probably falling apart at the time of them leaving, it was a rare 4 sided stadium for this level, good sized main stand and two decent sized terraces behind each goal and looks like it had a lot of character as well. Whereas their new ground seems to have no more than a tiny main stand and a bit of covered standing behind each goal. Will be nice to see a few home fans for a change though.

Wisbech have now increased the prices on their website to £7 / £5, so I've put the preview back to the way it was before it was "Trekked". ;) ;)

Indeed, in fact Wisbech Town apologised on twitter for having the incorrect information on their official web-site.
