We were saying just that today. We are playing Coventry and they will be bringing more fans than most non league clubs get as a home gate. It's great being back in the league and having matches with an edge to them. Can't wait.


I'd hazard a guess that Coventry may bring more to this one game that the combined away support at Blundell Park in one season in non league. That'd certainly be an interesting bit of research... I may be way off but wouldn't be surprised if not.

In 2015-16 (the promotion season) if you exclude Lincoln who brought 1799 that season amazingly, there was a combined total of 1492 fans, so there is a good chance that Coventry will out sell non league (minus Lincoln)

Well they might have done but tickets have been removed from sale and not being sold on day and they have only sold about 1350 before they came off sale.


If the football is bad you can always watch the gulls.

And in the 2014/15 season. Total number of away fans was 2569. If you take Lincolns 834 away then that's 1735 for the other 22 games!

What that showed is that Lincoln basically generated half of the total away revenue all the time we were in the Conference.
