Think Creepy were averaging less than 2000 in their promotion year!

Can't wait till we go to over there to the fake Highbury, show them what a crowd is, outsing them and smash them on the pitch.
Think I might take my Harry Haddock too. Cod my bottom.

Maybe they will smash the 2000 barrier for our visit on the 6th March. Midweek and all! Our fantastic away support as always will do us proud.

Last season we took over 600 but the team forgot to turn up: I never went to another game that season because of the way we played that day, they didn't give a sh1t. The trams weren't running either, always fancied going to watch THE TOWN on a tram! |

I hate balderdash threads like this. So Fleetwood are tinpot and nothing because they get smaller crowds than us. What did everyone think when Sheff Wed and Wolves were calling us tinpot in the Championship because we only got 6k crowds?

Fleetwood population of 26,840 average attendance of 1,827 = 6.8% of population.
Grimsby population of 87,574 average attendance of 3,236 = 3.7% of population.
Unfortunately, it is us who have the poor support and I haven't included Cleethorpes which would've made our figures much worse.

Crikey, had no idea Fleetwood was that small. That makes it roughly half the size of Boston! |

I cannot understand the fixation some on here have with other clubs attendances, I just get the feeling they must be sad little beggars eagerly awaiting confirmation of the crowd so they can rush to have a moan on here.
So they got 1,411 who gives a fwck, I bet the 1400 or so Fleetwood fans are really upset that was all they got and are bitterly disappointed they are top of the league and looking like they may be a league 2 club next year.
I bet some are saying right now that they wish they could trade places with Grimsby Town just because we can get 3,000 or so.

that statisic is useless...and this is why... population of wigan = 80,000 average attendance = 20,000 does that mean 1/4 attends home games? think about it  |

I've thought about it and would assume that as they are in the real Premier League then a good part of their attendances are made up of away club fans, unlike GTFC in the godforsaken Premier League when we are lucky to get a 100 visiting fans. |

As far as revenue is concerned, that statistic does matter. Away fans may bring a lot of revenue but as far as investors are concerned, Wigan are worth putting money in to. In our and Fleetwood's case, most of the fans are local apart from the odd freak away support due to local derbies etc. I think if we made the right cuts and modifications to our main expenses, we'd probably be about 750-1000 fans per game away from being a viable going concern. Long term sustainability is the first goal - some teams have achieved this by shrewd investment and/or friendly local benefactors, some have had a 'night of the long knives' by going into admin and coming out the other side with new people and fresh ideas and some have just been . . . erm . . . Pompey or Darlo! Hopefully, GTFC can work towards and arrive at the required levels to work as a business again. I remember Wigan being a small club in the 4th tier of English football and nobody willing to invest in Hull City because they would always be a badly supported football club in a rugby city. Getting the right companies and individuals associated with the football club for sponsorships or marketing plans could help us reach our financial targets especially while there is a buzz about the club football wise. |

Sure the original Harry inflatable circa plough Lane was a rainbow trout, might be wrong though. |

26,840 was at the 2001 census . . .I would have thought it would be somewhat higher 11 years on |

the irony that harry haddock is in fact a rainbow trout is lost on some of the supposedly "fish experts" of grimsby  .nothing could look less like a haddock than that trout thingy they keep digging out. to represent the town we should be travelling to away games with inflatable syringes and methadone bottles  |

If your a fleetwood fan with a name of Salmon when your inbred sort is famous for cod then you must be stupid. Lets be realistic at BP at the start of the year was hardly a football match from your bunch was it? More of a rugby or wrestling match. Some may argue and say win at whatever cost but i prefer to play nice attractive football not be a thuggish team who can't play football. |

You could have done that at Rotherham away a few seasons ago when they were playing at the Don Valley! |
