Re: Rochdale Away

I don't know where it says it but I just know that you are allowed to do a small number of initiatives aimed at home fans per season. This will be our second after the recent Chesterfield game.

I can't find it in league rules, and Preston got told they couldn't do it a couple of years ago. Don't think any of us are going to be ripped off tomorrow.

Your club could save money by cancelling the away stewards, we'll all be sitting with you.

Re: Rochdale Away

Have emailed Rochdale -

[ As I understand Football League rules there should be no detriment to away supporters.
Could you please confirm price parity, or inform me of any changes I am not aware of.]

Anybody know if they can do this?

Re: Rochdale Away

Preston had to drop their prices a couple of times this season because the away clubs objected. From memory they were operating a membership scheme which then allowed home fans a discount price, which of course they can't offer to home fans. They are not allowed to charge away fans anymore than the equivalent view as the home fans. The rules are a bit flakier when it comes to special days which clubs usually have 2 or 3 times a season.

Stanley get round the rules every home match

Same happened to me today. Does anyone know how long the bus takes to Rochdale and if there is a stop anywhere near the ground for the 464? Looking forward to the game. Hopefully I can get there!

Buses are every half hour on a Sunday at quarter to & quarter past the hour, takes approx. 1 hour & 10 minutes to Rochdale bus station but I think you then have to get another bus out to the ground.

Re: Rochdale Away

If you are getting the 464 then you will need to get the 444 or 445 towards the ground.
