Atmosphere has been poor this season too. Top of the league and we still don't sing. Need the old songs back.

Quite dead today, don't know why.

I guess the weather had an impact but would have expected more.

Early kick off, time of year or Christmas shopping, coughs and colds.… so may reasons, we can see all the glory supporters though, all got their tickets for Chelsea, says it all doesn’t it

12.30 kick off, kills any chance for me, if its a 3pm work have been lenient and allowed me to finish with enough time to get to the 3pm kick offs, but not 12.30s. If i don't go, it means my brother wouldn't go on his own.

Wasn’t that figure in the stadium, Annis! :cry:

I remarked on how empty it looked, and someone suggested people are saving themselves for the Chelsea game! :(

Oi, Bluebirds! The League One fixtures are our bread and butter! That’s where the team most need your support! :evil:

It's really boring football in general......Yes, we won, and when we brake and scored its good, then we kill the game and the crowd.....Its modern football i guess.

Then chelsea roll into town and all the excuses for a poor attendance against huddersfield evaporate .

Traditionally the last couple of home league before xmas have never really been great crowds for us , compare to the rest of the season. With Chelsea coming up I would also imagine lots are going to use they funds for that game Expensive time of year for most families

If only they had a season ticket, eh? :thumbup:

Great to see a ‘full house’ for the Chelsea game, but we need support for the ‘bread and butter’ games of League One, in which we are doing rather well and (IMHO) far from boring, even if we could do with a few less unforced errors! :ayatollah:

It was a rearranged fixture couple of the boys I usually go with had made plans already made plans to do stuff with their kids in build up to Xmas.
Every fan base in the country turn up in numbers for big cup/promotion games more than a standard league game

We got a lot of home games this month. Plus Christmas is a few short weeks away. Not everyone can afford to go to every game

I was more surprised by the quietness than the amount of people as that's to be expected at this time of year.

Swansea , struggling at the bottom of the championship had a bigger crowd than us today

Our support is pathetic at times and the excuses are embarrassing
