Couldn't get my regular seat for Saturday and I can't remember the last time that happened.

There has been some suggestion (especially from Wrexham fans) that the home sell out last night was to see their "Hollywood" team, but sales for the less glamorous Eastleigh seem to be more than holding up.


I've admired the ships sailing from Upper Youngs many a time, sometimes (more than I wish to remember as they were more entertaining than the game) I've even heard away fans who snook in, admiring loudly the "windmills of Holland" but I must admit I haven't seen the Holly-Wrexham sign from up there" Could be because I'm looking East, but probably because some team fans need to invent reasons why they cannot sum up a following for a team that is buying a league position to one that has to work for it.
Just my keyboard soliloquy.

Quoted Text
Put away fans in the corner and make the Osmond stand behind the goal available to home fans, the acoustic from the Osmond are the best in the ground.
Imagine the noise if we have fans behind both goals
.

This still (Barnet game) shows Mariner fans in the Osmond corner. I believe it's called Community Corner. From what I can make out it was 1/3 full.
It was empty for the Wrexham match, although 10-12 apprentice/peripheral players sit there during the match.

4 tickets left in lower and just over 100 left in the upper. They’ll be gone if you leave it until tomorrow I should think. Crazy times, UTM.

They really need to get more home games on sale. Staggeringly people are actually going to be getting concerned about getting a ticket. Hopefully we'll keep going but a dip in form and it will ease off with the post Covid novelty wearing off as well. I can't commit to a season ticket but if they were on sale now I'd buy tickets for every home game I can make for the next couple of months just to guarantee a decent seat in a stand I want to sit in.

Club tweeted earlier that theyve sold over 5300 for Eastleigh, and that's still with 48 hours of sales to go!


Just a thought on the finances. My guestimate is that they will have budgeted crowds of c.4000. If that were the case then you're looking at 4 home gates totalling over 22,000  instead of 16k. I suspect that will mean that 1878 have about £100,000 more in the coffers than they were expecting

I was thinking just the same, more dosh available in the January transfer window to really push for top spot.
