Dave Deacon Posted November 27, 2018 Report Share Posted November 27, 2018 STATEMENT: Early Christmas present for Truro City supporters Permission given for Treyew Road return for Buildbase FA Trophy tie... From Truro City Football Club website FOLLOWING discussions today with both The National League and The Football Association, we are delighted to announce that we have been given permission to play our Buildbase FA Trophy first round tie against Weston super Mare at Treyew Road on Saturday, December 15th, subject to obtaining the ground grading by no later than 5.00pm on Thursday 13th December. Given that the schedule of repairs has been completed, obtaining the ground grading should now be a formality. We look forward welcoming all supporters back to Treyew Road and joining us in the Clubhouse after the game where there will be a players' presentation. This news marks yet another important milestone in history of the club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

retired for now Posted December 13, 2018 Report Share Posted December 13, 2018 £15 for adults and £5 for kids. Used to be £13 and kids for free I think. I can’t justify going at those prices. Was looking forward to it as well. Will turn a lot of people away. Crazy. Surely they would want to get as many there as possible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

retired for now Posted December 13, 2018 Report Share Posted December 13, 2018 Bit of a p##s take. Be a small crowd there tomorrow at those prices and the weather. Don’t understand the sense in it at all. I know just from myself and mate that there will be 6 people less because of the price. Last year I think it was £13 and kids for free and they were riding high. I’m guessing those prices be one of the most expensive in the league? Shocking. Just don’t get it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Town Man Posted December 13, 2018 Report Share Posted December 13, 2018 Sounds like there is a total disconnect between the people in charge, the supporters......and reality!!! It's not just about the money but more about the fact that they have denied most of their support ANY local football at all this year and now when they do come back temporarily the price is hiked up!! Bad message which to me says they don't care. Big own goal I am afraid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

superdario Posted December 13, 2018 Report Share Posted December 13, 2018 Unfortunately I haven't paid a penny to watch Truro this season so I'm sure I can manage £15 for the one and only game in December. However agree it would have been a good gesture to try and get a decent crowd as there will be plenty being dragged around the shops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goldeneye Posted December 13, 2018 Report Share Posted December 13, 2018 A lot of supporters that would have gone to Treyew Road between August and December have not gone to Torquay, so I'm just wondering what you've all done with the money you've saved?

Roy of the Rovers Posted December 14, 2018 Report Share Posted December 14, 2018 With Truro charging £15 for adults and £5 for kids though the following comparison might be of interest. Hereford v Utd of Billericay (which is arguably one of the ties of the round). Seat in the main stand £12 for adults, Under 16s £1 Barnet v Bath (also a interesting tie) £10 and £1 The only comparative ticket price is Harrogate v York (a local derby) at £15 and £6 If you want to step it up several notches, both in quality of stadium and level of football. FA Cup 3rd Round Fulham v Oldam, £10 Adults £1 under 16s Or if you fancy a trip to the Ethiad. Man City v Rotherham £16.50 and Under 18s £2.50 I will be suprised is there are over 300 at Treyew Road tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For a fair comparison you have to take into account overheads and if the admission prices are being subsidised. If Truro were charging £1 some of the supporters find something else to moan about!

Goldeneye Posted December 14, 2018 Report Share Posted December 14, 2018 The attendances to watch Truro at Torquay have, understandably, been extremely small.

There are a lot more rules and regulations than 50 years ago and it all costs money! Just look at all the health and safety regulations that have to be complied with! A couple of seasons ago I spoke to a guy who was complaining about TCFC admission prices, but he smoked 15 fags a day!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
