Darwen Away 19th November 2005

Darwen Away 19th November 2005Darwen FC have announced that ticket prices for our fixture on November 19th will be £6 and no concessions.

Darwen have increased their prices for this game and the ticket revenues will no doubt sustain the club for some time to come. The desire to maximise the potential gate revenue is understandable but FC United believes the decision to refuse concessions to be unreasonable and we have asked Darwen to reconsider. The matter is now in the hands of league officials.

FC United has been informed that the stadium safety officer from Blackburn Rovers will make a ground inspection this week before submitting a risk assessment and ground safety report to both the FA and the league. Until that report has been received it is not clear whether the match will go ahead at Darwen’s ’The Anchor’ ground.

Once the assessment has been made and the report received we will know whether the match can go ahead or not.

We will keep supporters informed of any developments.
