Change the record. This is getting boring now. If we ever get back to the Premier League, or draw Man Utd in the FA Cup, then the stadium will be full. Simple.

I don't understand the negative fascination with the attendance. We all know it'll be around the 12k to 15k mark all season.

And the above photo was taken before kick off, so not a true reflection of the crowd in the Canton.


Your f*cking joking mate,open your eyes mate,theres players playing a game of football.


The photo I'm referring to is clearly taken before kick off. Look at the screen above, there's photographers and people in suits on the pitch. If you were there you'd know this photo is definitely not taken during the game.

Some people just can't help themselves, Annis. Any reason to mock, knock or moan and they're straight in there (even if they're part of the missing thousands! :oops:

There is a plus side, though. At least it makes them happy for 5 minutes having achieved their negative aims! :lol:

lets be honest, the football isn't the best, we have a low profile manager, no new signings worth getting excited about, and it is unlikely we will challenge for promotion this season. we are basically back to the group of fans that will turn up no matter what.

i still do my best to try and enjoy the games, but there is no doubt the team lacks quality, particularly up front.

I think you're wrong with regards to having the group of fans now who will turn up no matter.
If the football continues to be pretty boring, lacking any excitement and goals and we're way down the table in a couple of months with nothing to play for, I think we'll see the crowds drop a fair bit more than at present.

Ignore the reds Annis, most are too busy thumping their keyboards and defending Tan than actually going to the game to support the boys.

No red in the picture, just blues. This will change when we start doing well :sad:

It was a low crowd for sure but I really enjoyed the atmosphere and the calls for Duffy to do the :ayatollah: were hilarious.

For those saying the photos were taken before kick off, look a little closer and you'll see players playing football.

You don't think I asked both teams to come out and have a kick about for me to take some pictures do you :lol:

Jinks set your summertime saving daylight hours in your control panel and the posts will all move forward an hour :thumbup:

The photo I commented on has been removed and my post has been edited to add another photo, but not by me.

I don't understand why some people can't accept that they made a mistake.

This has been discussed before on here, mods should NOT be adding/editing anything from people's posts. Removing someone's complete post obviously has to be done at certain times.
