Harrogate coach drop off point
at 16:55 31 Jan 2025

Here's my response from Yorkshire Police who totally ignore my question re disabled supporters
Xanthe Tait, Director of Evolve Legal Services Police Headquarters | Alverton Court | Crosby Road | Northallerton | North Yorkshire | DL6 1BF DX No 68810 NORTHALLERTON 2 | Telephone 01609 643542 | Fax 01609 789987 Our Ref: 1002.2024-25 Date: 31 January 2025 Civil Disclosure Evolve Legal Services Dear Applicant, FREEDOM OF INFORMATION REQUEST REFERENCE NO: 1002.2024-25 I write in connection with your request for information which was received by North Yorkshire Police on 22 January 2025. I note you seek access to the following information: Q1. Under what legislaon are vising supporters coaches at Harrogate Football Club NOT permied to discharge passengers outside the ground. Q2. And further to the above what consideraon was given to supporters on those coaches who may have physical dicules rendering them unable to walk far. Extent and Result of Searches to Locate Informaon To locate the information relevant to your request searches were conducted within North Yorkshire Police. I can confirm that the information you have requested is held by North Yorkshire Police. Decision I have today decided to disclose the following information to you. Q1 & 2. It is the understanding of police officers attending any football matches at Harrogate AFC that coaches should not stop outside the ground. The road outside the ground is unsuitable for coaches to stop and lined with double yellow lines. Visiting coaches are allocated a car park (drop off and pick up) that is 0.9 miles distance. Officers deployed specifically to any fixtures at Harrogate AFC are instructed to move any coaches on if they are observed stopping outside the ground. The club have their own instruction booklet which is distributed to the visiting team in the days leading up to a fixture. Please note that systems used for recording information are not generic, nor are the procedures used locally in capturing the data. It should be noted therefore that this force’s response to your questions should not be used for comparison purposes with any other responses you may receive.

Changes to League 2 Financing Rules
at 18:30 24 Dec 2024

Has anyone else seen the changes being introduced next season regarding the percentage of non-ticket revenue being able to be spent on wages ? It's an attempt to level things up after the takeover of clubs by wealthy benefactors such as American film stars.
Anyone any idea about its impact on us ?

Is Durham OK? It's unusual for him not to contribute on a match day.

Swindon tonight
at 14:24 30 Nov 2021

Have just had to buy my iFollow pass. Our plans to travel were thrown into disarray following a ping from the NHS on Sunday. Someone I'd been near for some time had tested positive. Given that the only place I'd been without Mrs Witham last week was to Friday's match it does add to the questions regarding the bubbles. Given where I was there must have been at least eight people within 6 feet of me.
Moan over - up the U's, and at least so far I'm negative. Good job as hotel booked for Bradford,

Someone's run off with my wife
at 12:18 2 Aug 2021

I suppose the writing was on the wall. All last season she sat next to someone else, and now this season she's gone altogether. I guess I, like others, have been dumped.

Or does anyone know what happened to the cut-outs ?

Salford City's Tree of Matt

I know there were a number of us who felt ashamed that Matt was made to kneel on the ground on Saturday to find his ticket before he was allowed into the seats. I have made a formal complaint to Salford about the matter.

The Car Park
at 17:14 5 Mar 2019

Following on from the fans forum why don't we (the fans) put a leaflet on each car before or after the match with the email addresses of the Chair of Essex County Council Highways Committee and the Chair of Colchester Planning Committee and ask everyone to vent their anger at the situation?

How about these options:-
a) traffic lights at the roundabout? Last time I was quoted for similar costs were c£75,000 BUT Chair of Essex County Council Highways found £1m to get Parish and Town Councils to take on some highways works. Very few took up his less than generous offer so there must be some spare change around looking for a project.
b) when the adjacent empty site is developed make it a planning condition to make a left hand slip lane
c) make the road bete the roundabouts two lane towards the A12 rather than two lanes from the A12.
