MANSFIELD Town chief executive Stephen Booth has come under from the fans group he singled out as not being critical of his Dagenham tickets allocation decision.
Booth, writing in Saturday's match day programme, said: "Much has been said and written, particularly by certain members of fans groups (though interestingly not Ollerton Stags) about the ticket allocation for Dagenham."

He had been criticised by
supporters for ignoring an agreement to give Stags Supporters Association (SSA) members second priority for all-ticket matches.

That, coupled with a decision to give season ticket holders upto two tickets of the 1,242 allocation, meant that just 101 tickets were left for SSA members to try to buy on general sale.

But a spokesman for the Ollerton Stags Supporters Club (OSSC) told Chad on Monday it 'would welcome a call from Mr Booth to tell him their official stance on this and other issues surrounding our troubled club right now'.

In a statement, the group added: "Despite the quote from Stephen Booth in Saturday's programme stating to the contrary, Ollerton Stags Supporters Club backed the SSA statement regarding Dagenham ticketing preferences 100%.

"We feel it was completely unfair that after paying for the players training facilities for the whole season (amongst other things), the committee and their members were snubbed in such a fashion that means some of their most loyal members will now not be able to get their hands on tickets for the last day of the season this weekend."

Nice one OSSC!!
Just when Booth thought he'd found a divide amongst the supporters groups, he gets his chips well and truly p'eed upon!
The cheek of the bloke, to actually use OSSC's name in his Programme Notes to back up his own petty arguments with the SSA - clutching at straws me thinks Mr Booth.
