Says 'No Tickets Available' on the Slough site? Even though the games either side of it are on sale...

That is odd, they have been available previously. No idea why they are off sale, it's not a possible Trophy round date or anything similar.

The game is being segregated which is why tickets are not on sale yet. Ticket details to be revealed soon.

Thanks for finding out Tom. Wonder if this is related to supporter incidents at recent away matches?

@dorking-eagle I'd say so. Shame as I like changing ends and being behind the goal we're attacking each half. Not sure it would be a high risk game either?

Quite possibly David. However now there's seven banned from watching Dorking at Meadowbank, I do wonder if they are banned form watching Dorking away?

Is a pita though when you cant change ends

@steve1966 Pretty much impossible to do that Steve, unless we make away games all ticket with our staff on the gates (which I believe is what we're doing at Worthing, unsurprisingly)

Half the time they don't even go to the game anyway - apparently they all went to Maidstone v Tonbridge with a Tonbridge mob recently...

It's a shame as we do really need the younger element esp away from home as it greatly ups the noise levels (Farnborough was insane, leading up to kick off especially - loudest we've been since Worthing away last season)

So many questions...

Are most of those banned even Dorking Wanderers fans, or were they Tonbridge fans anyway?

BTW does this suggest Tonbridge is a potential flashpoint? 

Ditto Maidstone away, as a mob of their lot turned up randomly at our home game v Torquay, primarily to act up and be a PITA.

People can legitimately watch other teams of course, I have watched Merstham and Farnham a fair bit over recent seasons by the way. But to watch the football not to act like a PITA.

Puts me off to be honest, Slough has always been a welcoming place to enjoy a game, last season for example they let us in early before the turnstiles even opened so we could use the bar at the top of the stand.

And yet you can bet at Maidenhead where it was a right hassle last time inside the ground, there will be no segregation in place, even though they can facilitate it easily.

Think I will probably sack off Slough if it's segregated and just go and watch Palace instead.

@dorking-eagle I shall go as I didn’t go there last season.

The seven that are banned are well known to all of us. All youngsters who we have seen at home and away games. 

You are right David, we don’t need to be treated like children because of a few mindless morons. I dropped down from watching palace because of the more relaxed atmosphere at non league level

Exactly Steve. I put myself in the camp of trying to get the best out of both ends of the football spectrum - I still love the football quality, stadium atmospheres and elite players of the Premier League, but I can't stand the digital ticketing (still swerving it to be fair), practical logisitics like huge no parking zones and the minority of coked up idiots you sometimes get at some games.

In my other world of non-league I love the friendly volunteers, warm clubhouses, changing ends at half time, being on nodding terms with 90% of my fellow supporters at away grounds, getting a teamsheet, saying hello to players, programme shops, cheap tickets, and choosing where I stand (or sit) to watch the game. But with all these great benefits comes responsibility - act well, treat others as you want to be treated and basically don't be a dick. If people want to act like dickheads, there are a handful of clubs where they will be welcome, but the vast majority of us don't want Dorking Wanderers games (home or away) to be like that. 

Sooner we keep it how it should be in all respects the better. I don't expect angelic perfection, but general respect for everyone at the game shouldn't be an unattainable goal.

@dorking-eagle Apparently (looking on social media) there's a bit of a 'friendship' between the Dorking and Tonbridge groups - hence why Dorking lot went to Maidstone with Tonbridge, and Tonbridge came to F'Boro with Dorking.

So no risk for the away game on the 3rd, I'd say.

Anyway, absolute pain Slough is segregated tho - does anyone know if when segragated we get anything round the sides/in the seats?

Would be a relatively easy ground to segregate, we'd get one of the covered end terraces and half the small side seated stand I would think

(and potentially a buger van and a line of portaloos on the flat standing in between)
