You also have to take into account that many clubs including the Albion now report tickets sold and not people attending. I find it a little sad that you can't compare attendance records like these to modern day attendances due to the different method of reporting these days. Why can't clubs...

Very generous indeed- top man!

Not good, overdrafts can cause problems but if you have a small one for say £100 it could help you out in situations like this in future.

How did you get on? Did you manage to sell the PS3?

Overdraft? Have you asked your bank or building society to extend your overdraft?

Yes really, but perhaps your cards have been in fairly substantial envelopes. I've worked for Royal Mail for a long time now and from time to time you see credit cards, driving licences, bus passes etc, etc that have come out of envelopes that have been processed through the machines.

Keep sending it by post as every letter helps for the company I work for, but make sure the envelope is well sealed and the card has a bit of protection too.

I'm assuming we are linked with Crawley due to the fact the both clubs are policed by Sussex Police.

If you're getting it sent back by post I would advise that the card is well protected in the envelope; as sometimes the machines that sort the mail can have a nasty habit of chewing up envelopes with cards in!

For Paul Barber. The club now reports "attendance" as actual tickets sold. Is it possible for the club to report both actual tickets sold and the amount of people who went to the match?

I blame John Major personally.

Are the lads Chelsea fans though?

Has the system I have suggested been trialled elsewhere m'lord?

Longer platforms or stewards to coax people along the carriages then. If longer platforms are built then I think the marking up the platform solution could work.

Couldn't the club in liaison with the Southern Railway mark out lines on both platforms to indicate where each carriage stops? Then stewards can organise a set amount of people up in each section, then when the train stops you should get a better distribution of people across the carriages. I am...
