A massive clean-up is underway at Crabble after it was battered by the brutal weather of late.
Trees were uprooted and smashed through the perimeter fence, just missing the VIP Lounge, while numerous perimeter advertising boards were ripped from their positions to leave a trail of debris.
Tickets are now on sale for the VIP Platinum Suite for our National League game against Grimsby Town this Saturday.
They will only be on sale until noon on Friday, February 25th.
To see the match from the best seats in the house and to enjoy a very special experience costs £28 per person.
Please note that this price does NOT include entry for non-season ticket holders who do attend, and they will still need to pay on the turnstile on the day.
The experience includes:
Butler hosted lounge with large TVs and projector showing the game
A three-course meal, served at your table
Reserved undercover premium padded seating
Complimentary tea, coffee & mineral water, plus dedicated paid bar before and after the match
Complimentary matchday team sheet
Arrival at the ground should be at 1pm and food will be served at 1.30pm.
There are only 64 spaces available, so all tickets will be sold on a first-come-first-served basis.
The dress code is smart casual.
To buy your passes please email [email protected] or call the office on 01304 822373
We very much look forward to welcoming you to the suite soon.
Manager Andy Hessenthaler has added to his attacking options with the arrival of former West Ham United forward Djair Parfitt-Williams on a non-contract basis.
The 25-year-old, who will wear the number 34 shirt for us, featured twice for the West Ham first team against Lusitanos of Andorra in the Europa League qualifiers in 2015 and was an unused substitute in four Premier League matches.
He was also a member of the Hammers team that won the Under-21 Premier League Cup during the 2015-16 season.
West Ham won the first leg of the two-legged final 1-0 at home, with Parfitt-Williams coming off the bench to score the winner.
Parfitt-Williams spent six years with the Hammers before making the move to Slovenia after signing for top-flight side NK Rudar Velenje in February 2018, helping the team to qualify for the Europa League.
He then joined Icelandic side Fylkir in February 2020 and spent two years with them before returning to the UK.
Welcome to the club, Djair!!
