The most interesting thing for me is the attendances at these games. I know we won the League, but unless the away team brings a lot of support, we can no longer fill our 15,000 capacity ground. The fact is that there are far more things to do with leisure time these days than there was in the forties, just after the war. In those days it was religion to get a season ticket and to go to EVERY game. That is not the case today, season tickets mean a commitment and honestly people are not able to make that sort of commitment. Therefore they pay, in many cases, by the game and pick and choose when to go, along with all the other things they now do. The football authorities need to do a survey and find out how the smaller clubs can be helped, as the likes of Liverpool, Man U etc will always have more people wanting to watch than seats available. Football has to be made more attractive, but the clubs themselves do not have the resources to do this. Unless we want many clubs to go to the wall, money must be used to improve the situation.
What happened on March 13th? Beat Barow 8 nowt yet almost no bugger was there to see it. Why not? Apart from the very first match of the season that Barrow match was a digit short of any other attendance.BobG
