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.

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.

Maidstone United loanee Alfie Pavey scored our first goal of 2022 but it wasn’t enough to prevent hosts, Dagenham & Redbridge, from winning the National League clash 3-1 at The Chigwell Construction Stadium.
After the game, we spoke with coach Nicky Southall to get his reaction.
A year of frustration, uncertainty, bad news, and difficulties that no one could have imagined – we are sure no one will be sad to say goodbye to 2021.
So as a new year beckons, all of us here at the football club would like to say a massive thank you for the support we have received over the past 12 months.
We have been humbled by the generosity of your donations through various fundraising initiatives and your continued support of our games at Crabble and away from home.
We would also like to take this opportunity to thank all the new and existing sponsors and advertisers, who continue to support us in what is an extremely difficult time for everyone.
It is also an appropriate time to say thank you to our small team of volunteers, people who selflessly work hard behind the scenes to prepare for and deliver match days.
So whether you are a fan, a business that supports us, or a volunteer, we want to say that we really couldn’t do it without each and every one of you … thank you all.
Wherever you are in the world supporting the club, the Chairman, Directors, management, players, and staff would like to wish you all a very Happy and Healthy New Year.
Please stay safe out there!
