Quoted from pontoonlew
I see their master plan of avoiding us for a bumper Boxing Day crowd paid off as they came in their droves.

All 2685 of them.


Much smaller club, fair play to the 2685 who supported their club instead of watching Jeff Stelling.

Quoted from LH
Aren't the top four biggest attendances all games involving GTFC?  


Yes. And our midweek attendance in September at Lincoln was almost twice what it was there on Boxing Day this year. And don't forget we always can sell more than our allocation at SB on Boxing Day. Economics of the madhouse.


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.

To be honest attendances don't bother me at all. It's a bit "two bald men fighting over a comb" while we're in this league.

Not that LCFC would be bothered but their selfish actions caused 700 Town fans a near 3 hr journey both ways in treacherous weather at a time of year for no apparent reason? The Boxing Day and reverse NYD fixture has been the respective Clubs highest league attendance every year and was arranged for the benefit of the travelling fans again not that it effects LCFC particularly has they don't travel!

Screw Lincoln, they have opted for it, not bothered if we dont play them away over the Christmas period in the future, let them lose out on revenue.

I woudn't mind Halifax home or away around this time, it's not that far.

Seems abit weird playing any team twice in quick succession anyway.

In the 1950's we often played a team on Christmas Day and then the reverse fixture on the Boxing Day!

Ooh didn't know that.  I think they used to play games on a Good Friday too back then

Not sure, but I seem to recall my dad mentioning they used to practically let everyone on the docks finish early so they could all bomb it down the road to watch the match lol.

Was that time we played Man Utd home & away & won both games?
