Another point to look at is the attendance figures,

They are up by well over 500 on last season,

So the paying public must be happy with what they are seeing,

To have over 5,000 Town fans attend on a Friday night when the game is live on TV is brilliant.

We look that we are going to score loads nearly every game,

Its just sad that we can not do it when we play the top teams or are on TV.

It's true, I think we're looking at a frustration of unfulfilled potential not a forlorn hope. I think everybody can see the players are trying g and that is massive. We all all were swept away with the feel good factor I don't think it would switch so easily without sitting in neutral first.

That's nothing a losing streak wouldn't fix mind but that's highly unlikely and I just praying we can step out of limp mode soon as the fan base are itching to jump aboard the promotion trail ride

The support is always there Pete and always turn up for an important game. Bet the attendance for the next home game will be a thousand less and that's a lot of fans to lose.

Don't think it means the fans are happy because they'd be there every game, but when there's a big important game to get nearer top spot we somehow member it up.

I don't know Pete, I give up with it all at times

I was thinking about this. Do you know whether kids get counted in the attendance when they pay £1? If they do and there is no kids for a quid at the next match that might skew the figures a tad. If we beat Barrow on Tuesday I doubt we will suffer a loss of 1000. Lose and you could very well be right.


The aim of argument or discussion should not be victory but progress.

I don't know if the kids for a quid count towards the attendance figures either mate tbh.
Think if we lose to Barrow the attendance would definitely suffer, guaranteed.

[quote=26417]Been a good thread this one has. Honest opinions from both sides, poll very close, still going on since the game last Friday, but the saddest thing to come from this is that the fans are well and truly split over Hurst.....and that's not a good thing for any club IMO  [/




only 84 negative votes with an attendance of over 5,000 at the last game shows by far the majority is in favour of hurst, or Al least not against him. Hardly a split LOL!

Even if we don't make the play offs, I think Paul Hurst will still be in charge next season.

I should have added that if we don't win the league as well, before every one posts, we will win the league.

Exactly so according to JF's sorry DickBarton's theory of mathematics that must be at least 4,895 who aren't in favour of Paul Hurst.

I just hope he isn't advising his Tory chum George Osborne or we are all in deep sh!t if we aren't already.
