Burnley took 3500 to Bradford today, and expect to bring a couple of thousand on Tuesday - I hope people turn out to outsing the dingles !!! :D

Other sites saying between 3000 - 3500, anyway it should be a good crowd for a pre-season friendly.

I think this match will have the highest attendance of all the friendlies we have and im pretty certain we will be heavily outnumbered by the away following, i only see maybe 300-400 home fans bothering in going, hope im wrong.

If my maths are correct the gate of 3917 consisted of only 1897 Bratford folk which based on their self proclaimed average league atttendance of 13000 represents around 15% of Bratfordians who could be arsed to get out and support their team on Saturday.

Anything over 300 of our own fans tomorrow would suggest a higher degree of interest by our fans than those of Bratford.

Whoever said that we are a small club?

Maybe the club aren't bothering to advertise because its a friendly.
We will get thumpd like we did against Wolves and Incey a few years back.
The game will have about 22/23 players playing for Morecambe and if newcomers see a game like that they will not really like it.
Leave the club alone, the next few games are for the team not the fans.
