Just because we have to ground share does not require you to forum share.

I'm not sure why a straightforward statement of a fact should cause so much offence.

Just because you're tenants at the Keepmoat doesn't mean the ground can't be rented to others.

You're tenants. So are we. Live with it.

Looking at the logistics for the Keepmoat Double-Headers is interesting:

The Dons games kick off at 2.00pm. This means they will end around 3.45.

The Sheffield games kick off at 4.15.

When will the gates be open for the second match? Will people be coming into the ground before the Dons match has finished?

Will Dons' fans be allowed to go to the bar after the game for a drink or will they have to leave the ground?

Will everyone be sat on the same side of the ground or will Sheffield fans and their opponents be located in the West stand?

It'll be interesting to see what plans the club has for managing this.

Apparently, you'll be paying your money for both games. I'm not sure that all the details have been worked out but that's what "double header" means to me.

Sorry griff ... historically Keepmoat Double-Headers for football and rugby have not worked like this. One ticket did NOT allow fans into the ground for the football match AND the rugby match. You had to buy tickets for both.

One ticket for both games may apply this time around but it isn't how it worked before.

As I understand it; it is going to be one match day price say (£15????) which gets you into one or both games.

Similar to a mini magic weekend

That arrangement is not a "double header" for me.

I believe you are correct.

I'd want more than £15 to have to sit through a Seagulls match.
BTW - is this Griff character the same muppet that takes a drum to matches? He's just as annoying.

Annoying ? In what way ?

I believe that the prices haven't been decided yet.
