@Wolves1877T From the beginning of last season seats held by season ticket holders handed back to the club for resale, are released for general sale ONLY after all other seats in ths stadium are sold. This is because the club has to pass on 80% of the resale value to the holder.
Absolutely chuffed. My photograph of the CWGC Naval Military Cemetery at Kalkara, Malta, although not picked for the final 13 that will adorn the CWG Foundation 2026 calendar, has made the shortlist out of hundreds of entrants.
Lance Corporal M.A.W. Malcolm, 26, and Private G.E.Le Provost, 24, both of the Dorsetshire Rgt were buried at the Mtarfa Military Cemetery, Malta on 12th July 1940. Both died due to burns received due to enemy action over Malta.
Lest we forget.
