1375 on Sky Sports

I thought 1735 (only cos my guess with the lad was 1750) but difficult to see how many in the West Stand when you are sat in it

If I had that sort of money, I'd keep well away...they get enough of my cash as it is My interest centres almost exclusively around the 'break even' figure that Keith mentioned.

1,375 now posted on Sporting Life. Very disappointing and not sustainable in the slightest

Only 150 more than were at the Gateshead-Sheffield game

Are those accountants being 'creative' again?

I was in one of the boxes and looking down at the West stand it looked almost full and there was quite a few in the North stand as well. I honestly thought there was more than that.

Thats a bit off Fred. Have you had a bad day on your own up there in the east end? You would have been interested how many were on when you were old bill.

Seems like your town has as many people as Widnes,people who 'would' go to the game but 'can't' because the team is in division one,too expensive,too cold,oppositon is crap,waiting for the league season to start proper,no red carpet at the turnstyle etc etc.

Had conversations today with one fan who said that 14 quid was too much for a game against a team like the Skolars

Which is possibly true , but then a match against W1g4n [ even a friendly ] or a match against Widnes or Fax maybe should be worth more

And somebody else who suggested that " if W1g4n ever play one game at the LSV " he will never set foot inside it again

I did try to point out that it was out of the clubs control but he was adamant that the board should refuse permission for this to happen or resign

If being up there means with 4 other people??

A few of us had the same conversation - I know that, if I wasn't a season ticket holder, I'd certainly think twice about paying £14 to watch a game like today's. Topic was raised about possibly categorising different games (commonplace in football) but a cynic would suggest that would merely mean raising the price for the Category A games rather than the original suggestion of lowering it for the less attractive fixtures.
