Morecambe v Newport attendance 1342 . Accrington V Bristol attendance 2027 .
Are we now the minnows of league 2 ???

Yes.

Acci have more money than us too.

Still wouldn't want to be them!

We`ve always been minnows, it`s maybe something to do with being S**t at home, why would anyone want to continually `entertained` like this season and seasons before?

Accy have also only lost 6 league games this season & only conceded 29

And one of them losses was against us

You may also find that Bristol Rovers take a good following with them to add to their growing attendance at home. Also a few armchair fans might take the effort to come along, now they are in the play-offs.

Also Blackburn and Burnley were both away

It was also 7th against 4th

exactly the reason I've not bothered going for a while now ,last game home V Cambridge & that was a last minute decission after going to the FA cup game V Daggers which i though we would win easilly.

I probably wont return till there is a change of manager.

Brizzle Goodnight Irene will have taken a fair few to be fair.

They travel in good numbers.

I wouldn't be at all surprised if we are outnumbered by Pompey on tuesday night, although i believe we aren't opening the away end again!!

The club are only expecting 300 from Pompey, hence why the end is closed on Tuesday.

I still think they'll bring more mate, personally.

Maybe not enough to justify The Bay being open, but I think we'll be surprised.

I know of a few who are stopping overnight to Wednesday.

The Accy attendance included 540 odd Pirates so nearly 1,500 Accrington fans turned up.

The Accy "hardcore" are harder than ours at the moment and that's a real worry.

Last season their home support was below 1000 on more than one occasion and if they were in our position now and with our home record then they wouldnt be anywhere near 1500, every club is the same regarding supporters who only turn up when the going is good.

Yes, it's not just the hardcore now they sense promotion.

tonights 1347or something like that with over 400 from portsmouth, is seriously dire!

Just got back.. Really enjoyed tonight against "the big boys" brilliant

A great night starting off with good company and good food in the high seats, then a fantastic finish to a edgy, tight match, topped off with the goalie scoring a blinder . Just a pity there wasn't a few more supporters to witness that equaliser.

A lot of fans can't afford to go to football especially 3 home games so close together
I don't go for other reasons but its very costly now and people have other things to do

I didn't go because the weather in Manchester was appalling and didn't fancy the 130 mile round trip when I was already knackered.

So naturally, the greatest ending since Chesterfield/Crewe happened and I'm as sick as the proverbial parrot.


John. I miss having a chat with you but give it a break. We have no money, we are over achieving by being dull and boring. Deep down I think even the most negative of poster knows this.

Smile old bean! Do you want a hug?
