It should have been a priority application game -

Not quite sure how exactly they decide this but if we took 2250 to Leicester for a midweek game and sold 3000 for Orient last season my view was that it was not a difficult decision. And it is in school holiday time so it is easier to take kids to the game, plus London games attract a big away following.

Given that we sold all the tickets in three days means they did get it wrong in my view.

In mitigation, there were other factors to take into account from an NCFC point of view re resources

1/ They are currently dealing with all the Ipswich applications
2/ They have all the season tickets renewals and new applications to process.
3/ I would imagine are quite a few less staff working at NCFC and could they have coped with another priority game?
4/ They would have had to decide this a while ago when we were not in the top two.

I thought it would be a rush for tickets and called on Monday to buy for Gemma and two pals as soon as I heard they were on sale, which was BEFORE it appeared on the NCFC official site.
