People wey don buy ticket no need to worry. Their ticket go still dey valid for the new date when dem finally fix am. And if you no fit go that day, you fit ask for your money back. The club don give number and website for refund.
This suspension come spoil Gimnasia plan. Dem dey on fire this season! Dem dey top of the league table with record of 22 wins and 11 losses. Dem don win their last nine matches straight. Dem just beat San Lorenzo last time.
