Plymouth game off

[willingdon_seagull]

Can't see why people are moaning so much??

Them the rules! I'm sure we'd be wanting the game called off if we'd lost 3 of our better players.

And before anyone says anything, yes I've already paid for the trains down there and I'm pretty sure it's non refundable.

Fair enough with regards to the rules etc but majorly PI55ED OFF with the fact I have paid up front for 6 non refundable train return tickets and two non refundable travelodge rooms. Im sure people will really want to part with their cash now! Unbelievable!

Absolute effin JOKE!

 

[Wilka]

Hasn't this been on the cards for a while now?

Er, because I'm staying with my girlfriend's parents' in Devon and she had to book the holiday 4 months in advance?

 

[Scotty Mac]

surely everybody KNEW there was a risk that this would happen? it was pointed out on here sometime ago!

Ohhh well since you are staying with your girlfriend then I think we should probably just cancel the entire international weekend. Actually lets just scrap international football full stop, your girlfriend and her holiday is far more important!!

Don't be a plum. I'm just saying that i'm annoyed, not that it's wrong or that it should be changed.



Also, I'm annoyed that I'm not going to be able to do THE new ground that I was looking forward to this season.

We'll being doing this next season when our new players are called up for international duty.

I think you are being a little bit harsh there mate. I, like most people can barely afford going to see the Albion play but still do because I enjoy it so much. It is frustrating, whatever the circumstances, when games are called off as if it is all booked up in advance (non refundable) you lose money! Money that some people work their backsides off for!

But this was predicted AGES ago... if people book non-refundable tickets for a fixture people cast doubt over, thats their fault

Well granted it's very annoying and people (myself included) are going to out of pocket but as others have pointed out it's been on the cards for a while and Plymouth are completely within rights to do so. It's not a rule that has only just been brought in.

People saying it's a joke decision need to take off their blue and white tinted specs off.

Games being postponed due to International duty - (potentially) Plymouth (a) Sat4 Sep - North Stand Chat

Agreed.

Well I booked this as soon as the fixtures were released. Rules are rules etc but frustrating nevertheless!

 

[hans kraay fan club]

It's stupid, i could understand if they haven't got replacements but they have. They're using it for their own advantage so we have to travel to Plymouth on a week night, where not many fans will go.

Yes, yes. They definitely ARE moving the game, purely so that less fans attend and pay them money.

 

[Finchley Seagull]

I understand the decision had to be made under current rules but I do question the rules. Teams regularly have three or more players out for a game. Fair enough if it is six but three seems very few players to justify postponing the game. Also, surely Plymouth knew that these players might be called up when they signed them. On this basis the Premier League games involving Chelsea and Arsenal should have been called off during the African Nations Cup.

For the record, I do have a refund on my train ticket but you don't get all the money back. It is all very well to say people have been warned but, unless you want to drive down, your two options are risk losing money by booking train tickets early but having a reasonable deal or wait until the game is confirmed as on and pay a ridiculous amount for train tickets. Hardly a great way to encourage people to go to away games, is it?

damn that shit! Was looking forward to it!

Going to a wedding that day, so avoids needing to wear the headphones during the service.

Could be a dead rubber by then though.
