Could we be next?

Firstly, this is not a thread slagging off their attendances but last night Lincoln had less than 2000 home fans. A total gate of 2152 which included 267 from Stockport. Only 1885 Imps.

Just wondering if it will be that long before it happens here if performances don't improve.

Mmmm very poor gate that Les - two good results for us last night though mate.With the mighty Cods only securing a goal less home point against York

Apparantly it was moved on police advice as there had been a lot of trouble at the same fixture for the last 3-4 times.

oh was that the reason didnt realise,thought they were trialling out friday night matches,cheers les ps hows the head mate

for god sake negativity again on this site all you ever get bill and ben have only just put the team together and it needs time lets get arsie at christmas if we not up there fighting but you only have to look at the results last night and last tuesday who ever thought barrow would smash fleetwood big spending fleetwood at that we could possibly be in the top half of table this afternoon after such a dreadful start to lets give the lads a chance and get of the backs.  we only have to look at norwich 3 yrs ago smashed 7-1 at home its about 46 games not 4.

Attendances at every level are falling, even teams having relative success. May be people are realising that ticket prices are too high and quality of football ain't too good. Something has to give at some point. The 'floating fan' isn't going to waste their money watching a flipping awful side like Lincoln the same as they won't to watch town. Facilities also have an impact. People expect more than a excrement burger stand, a urine poor view and dark dingy toilets when they're are paying anything up to twenty quid for essentially an hour and half of not very entertaining football...

On a side note, I thought Fleetwood were gonna romp away with the league and destroy all in their path??? Seems like bollcks to me.

When Scunny were really excrement at level above where we now find ourselves they had a season average of 1,800.  Just think how low their gates could have been at this level after the garbage we have seen.  Gates mean nothing, it's taking us a long time to learn that, how many times did we give the bigger teams in the Championship a run for their money or bloody noses.  Passion does count and you'll not find as many passionate fans as Town fans, just give us something to cheer about.

Agreed. This is perhaps a partial counter argument to TBE's thread about Sky TV. The facilities at the top grounds have improved immeasureably however a sthe money hasnt trickled down, facilities at our level are largely from the dark ages.
Cut the ticket prices to say £10 and £5 and i would expect several clubs to go to the wall within a few weeks.

I dont know what the answer is!

If we challenge near the top we'll be closer to 4
