Unbelievable loyalty shown by the club's fans once again....

Usually the last home game before Christmas shows a reduction in fans at the game and yet with only less than 100 from Bromley yesterdays gate was an improvement on the last home league game.

Despite a miserable home record to date, the fans still turn up in there numbers to support the team.

Incredible......

I thought the Berlin Wall was very sparse yesterday. From where I was stood in the Halo that also looked to have less bods in there, even after the protestors arrived.

Season ticket holders count whether they are in attendance or not is my understanding?

Was the away end not full of freebies? Still, I think our average this season is very solid all things considered

Yep, I believe that's correct.

As for yesterday, I know that the Away End consisted of Community 'freebies'. It may have
been unintentional, but It wouldn't at all surprise me if the numbers in the Away End were included in the official attendance figure. I reckon the sparsity of numbers on the Berlin Wall and in The Halo help to back that up.

Paying supporters are dwindling, how fast I don't know......but ask again in August 2025 and it'll be self evident

I suspect unless the ownership situation isn't sorted AND the board don't start treating supporters with respect, there'll be a massive slump in ST renewals in May.

Just want to watch a good game of football and when you watch your team at home if you get that you usually get to watch your team win, but even as a season ticket holder paying under a tenner a match I can tell you yesterday’s game was not good money to be paying out, better games on the park.

Oh and Dependant on what league the club is in, the slump may be dramatic. I do hope the support holds up it would be a shame if it all fell away.

Well, as a non-season ticket holder due to too many Tuesday night games, who has a fair distance to travel to a home match on very unreliable trains, and then a usually reliable Stagecoach bus getting me home, if I'm lucky by 1930 on a Saturday.....I can honestly question is it really with it, especiallywith the train situation, where [admittedly] clever Unions have us exactly where they want the General Public.

In what way are the board treating the fans with disrespect ? If you mean lack of information, don't forget whiffingham has silenced the board with legalities. Otherwise in my mind the board are doing a sterling job keeping the club alive.
