Yes and that’s because we played well and didn’t give them the chance. People seem to ignore this fact as we didn’t win( and also they probably didn’t go so wouldn’t know)
I went and it was a crap game with both teams looking very poor.

I don't know what their attendance came out at today, but however many went along the got to see a few goals and a good win
4-0 against Cheltenham, whereas last week they never really had one attempt on goal apart from the one that the referee gave them on a plate
3086 so a very good attendance for them. An extra 1000 or 50% on the gate at least.

”in order for season ticket holders to redeem this free ticket, season ticket books must be presented to staff in the ticket office to be marked prior to midday on either match day. This will prevent unnecessary ticket office congestion prior to kick-off.“Phwoar, what a battle-cry! They really know how to get the blood pumping!
Unreal mate I`ve totally given up on any change.

I phoned in advance as the earliest I could get there as an exile was 2.30. Told not to worry. Short queue, and the young chap in the ticket office found two seats for us in the Upper. Staff are fine but they have an outdated clunky system to work with. If there had been a large take up of this 'bonanza' we could have seen chaos.

A single turnstile open for the Main Stand. Despite a pretty low gate there was a slight build up of fans waiting to get in at about 2:55.
It wasn't a major issue but opening one gate after a rallying call (as weak as it was) for extra support seems a bit bizarre. Almost as if the right hand doesn't know what the left one is doing...
Last home game is a complete and utter dead rubber. Neither side has anything to play for. There's a slight opportunity there to do some much needed PR rebuilding ahead of season ticket sales. Market it now as a chance to see the next generation, absolutely slash the ticket prices, do some work in the community to drum up ticket sales with the players going out to schools etc. Anything other than a statement that someone's written in 20 seconds and makes you feel like crap just for having the nerve to support the team.

You’re not wrong. Seeing the barriers put in to getting even the most minor concession from the club is really disheartening. It’ll come one day.

the primary school kids chanting "who are ya" in the main stand throughout yesterday's game should be given free season tickets next year.

Maybe we'll do something like my Sunday footy team used to do for the last game. Stick all the names in a hat and pull them out one by one per postition. Ring in goal, McKeown up front, Akeem Rose centre-mid. It'd be fun.

The fact Greg Howard (sports scientist cum warm-up coach) screams at kids to throw balls back that have gone into the Pontoon during a warm-up, just sums up the clubs PR. Too much ego, and probably cost the club a few quid in future sales just because he can't use some manners.

Isn't that what most recent Town managers do anyway
