"I and my colleagues had the utmost respect for Dave Holland and believe the importance of this game should be reflected in attracting as many fans as possible to the match. With that in mind I will give a rebate to any Bridlington Town fans who want to attend the game.
"If you keep your ticket or make yourself known to me I will reimburse the fans with £4 and £2 for concessions at our next home game to encourage as many of you as possible to attend this important game."
