Surely the Red Zone is the playing area. Well at Wimbledon we have the fan zone where I am sure Buck & Dusty could easily mingle with the fans and still operate within the rules.

Unless we plan to use them as 2nd half subs, they are the same as the rest of us. Pretty stupid comment from club.

Indeed, it seems a rather lame (snigger) excuse.

did not challenge it, as they would probably ban me, but it made no sense to me as the dons mascot can be seen at wimbledon games, and having them in the fans zone is where they should be anyway.

Which makes me think they are not planning to use the fans zone at all, which makes a mockery of actually moving in the first place

That’s the missing piece of the puzzle which sadly makes their argument a nonsense. Oh well!

Probably about 100 tickets sold based on looking at ticketing site. Hopefully Bradford will bring some down, but right now there might be more people behind the sticks than in the main stand....

Not seen any marketing done for the game either, apart from tickets for £15

Is that what happened to Buck & Dusty?

At least the website has been updated with a banner for the game with a link that actually connects to the correct ticket page.

Plenty of seats still available.
