Pre-Season Friendly - Dartford V Ashford Utd. Sat 20th July 1pm

Just noticed that the entry price for this match is £10. I think that's a bit much for a match against lower league opponents. Charging the same price as matches against football league teams (Gillingham & Charlton) is taking the p*ss!.

Imagine, given the stupid pricing for this game, the match will be very poorly attended.

[Spike]

"Stupid pricing" seems harsh. I'm not sure where this is coming from as £10 is already a discounted price and seems pretty fair to me. If anything, you could argue that the Charlton & Gillingham games could have been charged at our normal entrance fee rather than just a tenner. I don't expect a big crowd against Ashford but I honestly don't think the admission price is going to be a significant factor in that. Even if it was completely free I doubt it would make that much difference.

Incidentally, why is this game a 1pm kick-off?

[Park Life]

Whether it's correct or not I'm not certain but i was told Ashford wanted 1pm

[DA Mikey]

Thanks for making a point of the 1pm ko. That could’ve been embarrassing (again).

No Time on Fixture Boards. Some would assume 3 pm, for a Saturday.

Any reason why the highlights have stopped? No highlights from our pre season games so far.

Charlton posted highlights:
Margate have yet to. Although there is a "unlocking the gate" video on their channel:

Ref just booked one of our players players going back to centre circle after our goal (Jones we think) but absolutely no idea what for??

[Park Life]

Ref just booked another player, 4 now in a game that's not had a bad tackle????

Dun Dun Dun, another one in the book........

3 of ours now.

[Mark Sweet]

Anyone got this absolute jobsworth of a refs name?

It's a pre season friendly, booking players for seemingly 0 reason is nonsense.
