I would think this season we'll only take about half as many as last. 600-700 would be my prediction, which is still a very decent following for this level.


not that great when you consider that lincoln  sold there 2500 allocation for exeter within 30 seconds and the game has now had to be switched to Exeter Chiefs sandy park, to accommodate the 10,000 that are travelling down

Quoted from Les Brechin
A major factor last season was that we'd never played there before, so for the vast majority of Town fans it was a new ground.

I'd be surprised if it was that few Les. Should be plenty of exiles as easy to get to from south/London, and on main line from Doncaster as well so would think fair few from Grimsby making trip. Saying that it is holiday time and I am gutted not to be going as stuck here in dirty France crying into my pint of Stella!

Four of my family went there last season and all have said they won't bother this season. Said it was the worst away day in living memory.

They didn't go to Braintree 6 years ago then?


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

I would imagine that the 350 is what will have been allocated for the HOME fans once Lincoln have sold what they require.  
I suspect that with pay on the gate the Home fans will be lucky to get into three figures  


The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'
