Quoted from rancido
In the 2000/01 season the home game against Bolton on September 12th attracted a gate of 3732.


No idea why I remember this (to link to the other thread!) but that was when that fuel strike was on.

Beat me to it. Remember missing kick off due to a 'go slow' on the A180. That will have knocked a few off that attendance.

Interesting interview with Tim Sherwood about Aston Villa today in the Mail. Among other things he said this.

"‘Playing for a big club comes with pressure. Anyone can do it for a lesser team — but you have to have b******s to play for Aston Villa. This is a big club.
‘The fans think they support a big club. They come here, they don’t want to be in the relegation zone. They’ve got the hump. It’s up to the players to spark them into life.
‘People say the fans have got to get behind the team. Hold on, why must they cheer? You make them cheer. They’re the only loyal people in the game. Make the difference for them, get them on your side.'"

He might not have much managerial experience but I like his philosophy.


“If all mankind minus one, were of one opinion, and only one person were of the contrary opinion, mankind would be no more justified in silencing that one person, than he, if he had the power, would be justified in silencing mankind.”

Spot on


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.

Tell it to John Fenty and Paul Hurst.

Been saying the same for years, yet some on here still blame the fans.

Many have posted about crowds being low and sat in near silence at BP but todays article on Cod Almighty is at least thought provoking.

I referred to this game in another recent thread. As I recall the game came on the back of some indecisive performances with Buckley getting criticism for "tippy-tappy" football with little end product.Town were an established second tier side and the fans had designs on the next step up As  now, people voted with their feet due to the lack of entertainment. I wonder what would be said now if we were in the Championship. I suspect the feelings would be pretty much as they were then.


The aim of argument or discussion should not be victory but progress.
