Why is having 1,000 fans allocated a tiny wooden Stand with a poor view pathetic?
For whatever reason Cambridge & Peterborough have dumped visiting fans back into relics from a bygone era instead, leaving their new Stands behind the goal half empty? But you'd know all about that, as The Osmond Stand hasn't changed since my last visit 20 years ago.
By your logic then having 440 fans in a much newer Stand with a much better view, 3 hours away is equally pathetic?
I'd say credit to both sets of fans, travelling to games away from home these days is an expensive pastime.
Yes in fairness the first thing I check when deciding if I’m going to an away game is how old the stand is. What on earth are you on about?! You’re third in L1, the peak of the club within living memory, in the middle of a record breaking undefeated run on the road and you can only take 900 fans two hours down the road. Very poor effort from such a massive and famously loyal fanbase.

Its not the peak in living memory whatsoever ! In tje covid season where nobody saw a bloody thing in person till the end of we were top at Xmas of league 1 cant remember exact date we went top and missed out on promotion at the poff final to blackpool.
We had a good couple of loans currently starring in the premiership for that season,Brennan Johnson and Morgan Rogers.
I think you were in the non league at the time( not 100%sure)probably not looking at the football league.

Cheers for that, i'll adjust the figures accordingly.
The Imps average is 9,370 out of a capacity of 10.300 with a lowest of 8.534 (albeit for a midday kick-off) - 12th in L1 Town average 6,125 out of a capacity of 9,062 with a lowest of 5,496 - 12th in L2
You won't fit more than 8400 in Blundell Park with a tin opener that's a fact.

Congrats on last night mate, a playoff push is definitely on! You can’t beat a 95th minute towering headed equaliser in Fergie-time against none other than Steve Bruce

I will bite - Tell me how you are catching up, at a pace?
Dunno about the description of the speed of how we're catching you up. But I think it's sensible to say we are catching you, or rather your ability to hold your lead is dwindling. By your own admission, you're not going to trouble at the pointy end of the League One stick for the duration. You and your fellow Imps might not agree but I think that's your ceiling reached. Anything we do to move forward will naturally close that gap between the two clubs, simply because you can't move any further forward. Conversations on here aside, I do think that's a shame that football is in such a way these days that such a ceiling is as low as that (again, I include ourselves in that as I cannot imagine a future that sees us able to overcome the sheer magnitude of money thrown at the top end of League One over the course of the season).

Consistency is key we need another result Saturday to send a message out .I see nothing to fear in Lge 2 nobody seems to spend like Wrexham and Stockport did this time around? Top 10 flirting with play offs will do me
