Both post match interviews from Grant and Maxwell praised the crowd today.

Grant said how great it was to see so many fans turning up for us, Maxwell said how loud it was the loudest he has heard since he has been hear.

Let's take it up a level next match

My hands were dropping off

10 games ago (just 10) my head was permanently in my hands and had been for the previous 50 games . That's a guess

Now my hands applaud goals , good shots , substitutions , miskicks , overhit passes and every cock up the opponents make

My hands hurt like hell but by god it's better than looking at the game through my fingers

Brilliant GM and all the Team for this red revolution ( for those of a certain age )

I haven't been for a while. I very nearly went today but part of me daren't because I didn't want to curse the run we were on.

Eeh, the things I do for this club!

We need everyone we can get. I thought it was yet another poor turnout by the great Donny public. Most other towns would be out in their droves for a team that’s broke a 77 year old record. Shameful really

We need to win the last 3 games to break that record of 10 consecutive wins in 1946/47
The 8 we have now is the most consecutive wins since then.
We did 7 in 2003/04

I was hoping we would get 7.500 yesterday. Accrington probably only brought 150 I reckon, that’s just an estimate. So we had about 6.840 home fans based on attendance of 6.990
That quite a bit up on our ave home support but still a bit disappointing. Surely we will get a bigger turn out next week.

Get yourself there next Saturday BB. I know you've not been a 100% recently, but seeing this Rovers side we're watching at the moment in the flesh, could be just the tonic you need!

Come on BB, get down to the last home game.
I can’t promise we’ll win but I can promise that if we lose you will be in sympathetic company!

Total attendance was 6990, with 136 from Accy, so 6854 home supporters.

That's our second or third highest home gate of the season in L2. The highest being Wrexham (8297 home fans), and the other being FGR (7024 in total, but no official away number given. Assuming it was no more than 200).

It means our average (home fans only) has tipped above 6000 for the season.

Would be great to get more people through the door for Barrow.
