Sad, I'd have gone to that game just for the atmosphere, I will not bother now. Just to clarify i would not have gone before the Ajax invasion either, but would have if they were turning up.
The club wants to maximize revenue and it turns down the opportunity to take in some easy cash and exposure as I'm sure the news outlets would want to be there due to what the ajax fans were doing.
I say an opportunity missed.

I think it’s probably down to police advice more than anything
Shame the club misses out on a few extra quid

I think it was the police that made the decision.
Not a good look to be taking banned fans anyway.
Good for the #BTeamBoycott though.

We should have let them in, put them in the east stand and then on the following morning make an insurance claim saying that the flares they were letting off damaged the roof and now it leaks. Job done, roof fixed for free.

Another example of broken Britain.

Postponement is a good decision - these 'fans' have a history of unruliness

Apparently they’re still coming and they are happy as they can now watch Ajax Tuesday then come to the game Wednesday. Not sure if it’s true tho.

It was just one guy on twitter. I would have been shocked if more than 20 had turned up in the first place.

The Police too keen on giving out warnings about other clubs Fans, I don't think that any Ajax fans were in the least concerned
about causing bother what did they have to gain, I believe Police didn't want game on bonfire night plain and simple, but dressed it up as safety measure regarding behaviour of fans.

What a pitiful over-reaction from Plod. The club should have gone ahead on the original date anyway.
