    Anyone who buys a second ticket at £25 is crazy. There must be rules against this sort of thing though otherwise a club could postpone on purpose to (potentially) sell twice as many tickets.

    At least they weren't playing at the far end of the country, and 4-0 up at the time of the abandonment.

    At least they'd have seen some football for their £25 in that case. They've paid their money and received nothing in return.

    Edit: just seen that it was abandoned after the first half. I mistakenly thought they hadn't played at all.

    Sure I've done that at oakwell we had a game against Cambridge I think that was abandoned- had to pay for the game again - think it was same programme with a cheap new cover

    just had a look at both forums and fans a rightly saying about boycotting the game and not buying food/drink inside the stadium

    serves them right if they now lose money from the fixture

    i think we had the option of a refund or go with the same ticket so no extra cost

    4-1 wasn't it?

    Not many teams can throw away a 4-1 lead to draw 0-0 but we did!
