And they are building a 12000 all seater ??  Typical Robins Form already , won 1 in 5 ......... I really hope their Chairman is in it for the long Haul or I see a "Darlington" looming large in the future . ]Remember its just my opinion  ..... It might not be true ............

We would probably take 1500 there at least for the nearest away game ! Boyce back in the side again and holding his own, so not a lot of difference in playing standards, really? Wouldn't we like to be back up there again, with good local derbies at less than 100 miles radius to enjoy, atmosphere in the ground, and filling coffers up from visiting fans coming back again ??

Fact 1 - We want to be in their division. Fact 2 - We want a new stadium for the team. Fact 3 - We are currently winning games and they are not. Fact 4 - Both sets of fans can be fickle about watching a losing team. Just making comparisons between the two teams from the poster's comments !

Their Chairman must have very deep pockets. Just shows that if you offer the right financial package, then players will sign despite "the area". This is not a dig at Town by the way. notonemorepenny Logged Offline 2 2 Reply: 5 - 10 arryarryarry January 28, 2015, 1:20pm Special Brew Drinker Posts: 8,034 Posts Per Day: 1.68 Reputation: 61.11% Rep Score: +27 / -20 Approval: +8,706 Why are some so obsessed with other club's attendances.

This is spot on,    like it or not and no one hates them more than me, they are a well run club. Only people who are whiter than white themselves can poke fun at others or else they're arguments look bafoonish?😞 it will be a while before we have bragging rites over them won't it lads?  This is how low we have sank when we are celebrating a win over the "mighty" Eastleigh and the like!

I personally don't give a flying whatsit how many Scunthorpe get home or away. Quite agree - but to answer your question, I suspect it's an 'easy' way of measuring the size of respective clubs. It's a pretty crude and shallow way. Not very scientific. I imagine some boffin out there can compose a formula that expresses a club's size (and no doubt it'll consider more than just their average attendance). "Don't shine that light in my face, mate - I've just lost a pint of blood."
