Warning on Portsmouth tickets

You would have thought the ticket office manager partner, the number 1 Herald sports writer would be leading with a Portsmouth game sale out in a leading headlines by now

They are not opening any more blocks

NEXT Saturday's Dockyard Derby against Portsmouth is all but sold out.

There are no more tickets available on line for the Sky Bet League One clash between the two old Royal Navy - and promotion play-off - rivals on April 14.

The only seats in Home Park still to be sold are a few in the Mayflower grandstand which have restricted views of the pitch.

Tickets for these restricted view seats are available only from the Home Park Ticket Office, which opens for business a little later this Monday, at 11am, to allow for essential maintenance work.

A bumper pay day for Green Jim guaranteed.

Amazed it's not a Sky game really. I was going to get tickets for this one then I remembered the last time I queued for hours at HP for a ticket then had to queue at the turnstiles and missed the first fifteen minutes of the game and I thought no feck it I'll listen on the radiogram.

'radiogram' how quaint or you could always listen to the wireless.

I reckon Bayliss had the wilds of West Devon in mind when he invented his clockwork radio. A real missionary.

I had a great argument with an American Yogaist recently who was bemoaning the fact that all the Indians now had mobile phones. He couldn't see that communication is vital more so if you are an underclass living in the jungle. I pointed out the clockwork radio which the guy invented so Africans could get news. He got the Nobel for it I believe?

Not sure about the Nobel, but the poor chap died very recently.

He won various things for it including a BBC design award, practically a Nobel.

Passed away only a few weeks back
Invented a few things Trevor Bayliss he had a 10minute bit on tv-am twice a week back in the day if I can remember but yes the wind up radio was one of his biggest achievment

Was there any reason given as to why Blocks 19 & 20 weren't being opened despite a clear demand for it?

Police are scared.

Am sure the board would love to make a few more bucks, but the police would advise otherwise, given those Pompey fans can be a bit naughty sometimes.

What kind of lunatic chucks money away to preserve two whole feckin blocks for segregation. The extra sales could buy plenty of the old bills finest on OT.

Nail & head, Charlie. Nail & head.

I'm wondering if Argo has the biggest segregated area in the football league?

If so, how embarrassing! So, would that be Argo unable to control the peasants? Unwilling to pay the OB invoice? Brent conditioning the masses for downsizing? or D&C's finest, who are more geared to rescuing cats from trees and herding sheep for drenching (farming terminology), so feck off Tiger Tone!

Kerching kerching, thats the Modular Portacabin paid for.

I believe the segregation areas are yet another sign of Brent trying to socially engineer the football club to his own personal taste.

very true. All names and numbers now innit. Bringing the ex girly down for her first ever footy game. Hooch and other assorted shitness for the morning train down.

Taken from the Farm regards ticketing in general....

"Not sure what requirements are needed to be employed by Plymouth argyle but severely lacking in common sense seems to be a priority!"

Must be referring to Erringtons piece the most uncooperative person in living memory

Its unlike the club to hide behind "police advice", when Police have advised no such thing. Besides I didn't see any closed off bloacks at the Etihad on Sunday.

Manchester derby 2 rows of segregation, battle of the Muffs 2 blocks of segregation lol.....forever village
