Latest 1901 Club Email - re lounge movement, which parking voucher and attire!

[Giraffe]

Lounge movementFollowing feedback and a better understanding of match day operations the club has now decided to allow 1901 club Members to move between lounges 20 minutes after the final whistle, this is subject to lounge capacity and will be monitored by the stewards at each lounge entrance. This includes members of East Stand Platinum who wish to access the West Stand Lounges.

Dress codeWe are continuing with the smart casual dress code throughout all lounges. The dress code will be enforced by 1901 Club staff and stewards both on entry to the stadium and within 1901 Club Lounges. Members will be asked to use general admissions seats if they do not adhere to the dress code. Children under 16 are also encouraged to dress appropriately, although discretion will be used in the case of young children.

Acceptable: Business attire, smart jeans, casual collared shirt, tie and jacket are optional.

Not acceptable: T-shirts, shorts, sport shoes, flip-flops, sports clothing, including replica shirts.

The 1901 Club reserves the right to refuse admission to any person not properly attired. Members are responsible for informing any guests of the dress code.

Albion v Sunderland travel informationMembers using Bennett's Field and Sussex University parking for tonight's Carling Cup game against Sunderland must use parking voucher 'Extra Match 2' positioned at the back of the booklet. 1901 Club members wishing to use travel vouchers must use 'Cup Match 2'.So a few questions:

Why the 20 minutes?
Why cup match 2, when will cup match 1 be used?
And does a Polo shirt count as a casual collared shirt or a T Shirt? SOoooo confusing.

Ties are optional ? This country is going to the dogs.

If I read that right, the club will hold some general admission seats back in case 1901 members cannot dress themselves properly.

I have no problem with 1901 whatsoever but that is a bit of a liberty, and they get Steak and Stilton pies to try out tonight.

Cup match 1 was the Gillingham game, but because there was a problem with distribution of the travel vouchers, there were quite a few fans without them, so the club arranged for free travel. The cup voucher was still for that game regardless.

I heard that someone was thrown out of there for FARTING, is this true?

Yes but the Parking Vouchers (to which the OP is referring) had a pre-printed voucher for Gillingham included in the book and so parking voucher 1 hasn't been used for any game yet! When i asked Insider a few days ago on ATC his answer was "keep parking voucher 1 in case you need it later in the season"!!!

If I won the lottery tomorrow I would still not buy a ticket in the 1901 club. I won't go to a pub/club that makes you wear shoes and/or trousers so I certainly wouldn't go to a football match that instructs you how to dress.

Are you a naturist?

Attitude requirement at Bennett's Field car park gate, post match

Members must be aggressive towards stewards at all times until the barrier is raised.

Jeans, polo shirt and a pair of shoes. It's really not much hassle is it.

I heard that someone was thrown out of there for FARTING, is this true?

I think it was the uncontrollable diarrhoea associated with the farting that got them expelled.

I WISH they would have THESE standards for the REST of the ground, would make IT a far nicer place

I guess it depends if you own jeans, polo shirt and a pair of shoes

Interesting concept - would they turn away a bloke wearing a smart dress and high heels ?
