I only know so much because I had the same issues with a Burnley game once and wasn't best pleased at paying twice

Cheers for the clarifications Dave

I don't know how much expenses occur on a typical gate but I would think it's not a small percentage at Stanley. The worst thing about an abandoned match is that Morecambe can actually claim expenses out of the gate money, which they wouldn't normally get for an away match

Admission prices for the rearranged match will be reduced. Season ticket holders will of course get in for free. Morecambe fans were concerned that they had no evidence that they were at the match, however, reduced prices will apply to all fans attending the rearranged match regardless of whether they attended today. More details in due course.

They should have checked their own club rules first

Whoever pays the officials wants a bullet between the eyes,a disgraceful abandonment .

I don't think you can give them performance related pay so it's not an option

many thanks To lancsdave & Robert Houseman for the clarification on the pricing of the soon to be rearranged Morecambe match

The shame of it all is Bury fought and got a game cancelled as they had several untried signings, no one from Morecambe seemed to have made any approach to the officials before the dismissal asking for the game to be halted because of the pitch,and a victory for us would have seen us in 13 or 14 in the league,a wonderful turnaround .........Still 17 th is fine with games in hand,3 on York in 13 th and only 2 points ahead of us.

Chubbyman · 01-02-2014, 22:56

3 points behind York

Exactly and to be honest some of the post match comments on Radio Lancashire by your manager haven't helped the belief that MFC did all they could to get the match called off.

shrimps should start with 10 men in replay - playing ref what ???
