Think you are underestimating how many would not go because of the bubble. I don't think we will have any trouble filling the 3 remaining stands. Who are you referring to here, because the bubble wouldn't have any impact on home fans at all. I'd give them half the West Stand for us to make as much money out of this game as possible (usually make a loss due to police bills etc). The only reason I wouldn't give them the entire West Stand is because it looks bad when half the ground is away fans but we could do with the cold, hard cash to be fair. Didn't McCarthy say before the Tranmere game that the Tranmere fans wouldn't have all the West Stand because when the players walk out they would be facing Tranmere fans? |

Anybody know if CFU have a representative on the SAG? Assume the clubs own representative acts as a voice for the fans given that we're fan-owned.

The moment when Rooney scores the free kick is priceless - well worth digging out the Bootlegger video of that one. Even better is the Goats disallowed goal at Kidderminster when the female ref didn't realise it had gone through a hole in the net. It's absolute comedy gold if anyone hasn't seen it. |

His holiday and pub videos are pretty funny too. The bloke is a social media legend.

I think it is all ticket. I hate the bubble personally but it does worry me that the usual minority of morons on both sides will spoil this one and the Wrexham away game will be back to a bubble. I hope not, I enjoyed the special train put on in the past where I can go to Wrexham in my stone island gear to be met by lots of police who escort us to the ground whilst we give it large shouting ingerlund and even giving the V's to the locals. Might even break a seat again. There's no stopping us on derby day, if only we could get there some other way we'd show em They do say every village has got one... |

Does anyone know what our current ground capacity is ? It needs to be up at maximum levels for games like Wrexham and Tranmere, we have plenty of time to address this if any minor works need doing .

They really are a special breed, what was the full grown man expecting when he walked up to the Chester fans? the guy must of been in his 50's. Beyond embarrassing. |

Not sure what the capacity is now, but when a game is made all ticket a 10% reduction is made. Ie 4500 capacity becomes 4050 as seats are not individually allocated.. |

About time the bubble status for these games was removed. Time for us ALL to show that we can create a great atmosphere without recourse to pointlessness both inside and outside the stadium. It will be interesting to see what impact if any there is on attendance. Not withstanding the civil liberties issue, previous travel arrangements for some were ideal, and offered a safe environment in which to get to and from the stadia. Indeed some who like to attend with younger fans, or some of the more elderly may now feel intimidated by the potentially hostile walk down Bumpers Lane and have second thoughts on attending. I hope this isn't the case as we need to create a vibrant but safe event for all. Unfortunately I know a few from both sides will only attend for the prospect of confrontation, let's not let things get out of hand and give Mr Plod the excuse to re-impose the bubble.

After the way the players were it's them who need the bubble! and hopefully Mr Jennings will be a good boy this time round.

I am not moaning it's great that it's a Friday and I and a few mates are doing the same taking the day off few beers in town and enjoy a good derby game with a good atmosphere . Am just saying I think our police have learned off Merseyside police I have loved the games at tranmere the fan zone thing they have has been excellent, beer is a bit expensive for what it is but it's well run a good atmosphere and no fear of trouble and I do think we should do something similar for certain games to make money. Think your right good idea with the fan zone for certain games, cant see it for this game though, the last people I want to be drinking with on a Friday night is deluded Wrexscum fans. We shall see but the way you are looking you could be in a relegation fight when we arrive to play you whilst we could be in the top three !!  |

You are deluded if you think the spotlight will only be on Wrexham fans. Most and yes there are a few idiots on both sides ,just want to watch the match and have some banter but the people that organize your ground dont appear to have the common sense to blank off all those seats nearest to where the majority of the Wrexham trouble makers will head for . Every game at your place under the bubble has been poorly managed in my opinion inside the ground but outside was fine but one year your idiots stood outside the ground throwing bricks at our coaches ...nice ! not ! I will be filming any trouble at your ground and how we are treated outside and post it for all to see hopefully good and unfortunately as expected bad. Brilliant advertising you are going to post any trouble on social media just what the knobheads want remember your guy posting pictures of himself vandalising the deva Cant any of you take a joke !!! |

All ticket. Friday 7:45 pm. Is this a mistake by the Safety Advisory Group?? It's a dramatic step down from being searched before getting on the coach. Police escort (with helicopter). Ticket on arrival etc Surprising match arrangements even. A Friday night. And it's going to be dark in November  The current near 1,200 away allocation is SOLD OUT already.
Sensible thing is to give us the whole of the West Stand as well. How is the away allocation near sold out when the game isn't until November and tickets aren't going on sale for a few months? |

If our allocation remains 1,200, I doubt that any will be available for general sale.
Sensible thing to do is give us the whole of the West Stand. It will make policing Chester easier.
We were at first given 2,000 tickets at Chester. Then 1,400, and now it's 1,200.
Safety Advisory Group has dropped one big bollock by playing the game on a Friday night. Even if it gets picked for T.V, a sold out allocation won't deter those intent on causing trouble from heading to Chester.
An all ticket freedom of travel game at Chester on a Friday night really is Christmas come early for some people. Everyone's talking about it. Everyone.

Not everyone. It's a football match yes against our neighbours but it is still a football match. And what is at stake.
3 points

Let's not be naive. You just have to look at the behaviour from people who attach themselves to CFC in your H-Block at the last game. Surging a third of the way across the East Stand to celebrate a goal, throwing missiles etc.... |

Yes, it is 3 points.
But let's be pragmatic and realistic.
The S.A.G (which includes the Police) have made a bizarre decision by having Chester v Wrexham on a Friday night. The very same Police force which vowed never to police a Wrexham game at night time again!
In 1997 we had the same all ticket arrangements - and look what happened!
By the time Karl Connolly had scored his first goal, many of those involved in the disturbances were back home in Wrexham and dancing on pub tables.
Friday game in Chester? There's many, including myself, who can't believe the S.A.G have sanctioned it.

The aggressive posturing and constant pitch incursions from your Neanderthals located at the end of the RFU funded stand at the goat course is no different, being pretty much a disgrace with little to no control from stewards. You really should take off your goat tinted spectacles, and however unlikely, you may then be able to make an intelligent observation. .

Talking about intelligent observations, the RFU is the English rugby union so will not fund a stand at the racecourse. Come to think of it that also applies to you're shed too doesn't it. |
