That has to be some sort of record for a transfer announcement. great stuff... no fannying about, get all signings announced at once and even get it sponsored. I hope they stay up next season just for this alone. It wasn't exactly by choice. Their embargo got lifted and presumably they want to get training as only 5 players have stayed on from last season from that update.

All those players have signed one year contracts so it doesn't look like there was much competition for them, you never know they could develop a kind of "us against the world" spirit.

One thing counting for them is you have to be exceptionally shit to be relegated from L2!

Think thats what keep them an accrington going season after season with both having the lowest budgets in the league. Or have they got it right and its the others who waste a higher one.

Looks like our first away game in L1 will be over £30 a ticket 🙄.

Do they have to charge away fans the same as the cheapest tickets? I see Wrexham fans have been hit with that £35 price for Orient. £30 at Bolton too. The Premier League has a £30 cap on away tickets. Nuts to see Leyton Orient exceeding that.

Wasn’t there a team in recent years who charged away fans more than home fans for on the day purchases? I just meant £27 is the cheapest ticket for that game so that’s the best we’ll get regardless.

Quietly building a solid squad at the minute. 2 more due but our DoF has Covid so have to wait a few more days.

Think that was accrington when they played wrexham at home. They just increased the cost of the game for non ST holders for all fans both home and away which caused a bit of a row between clubs.

I think the rules is/was that you can't charge away fans more for the same type of ticket (i.e. you can charge more for covered/seating areas, but there must be equivalent tickets in the home end. Seem to remember Leeds a few years ago making one random block of the home end significantly more expensive (and therefore empty) but this enabled them to charge away fans more than the home fans.

I remember Bradford making it £1 for home fans but still charging us £23(ish) a few years ago. Some sort of loophole for one-off promotions.
