Scunthorpe.

Shouldn't threads about Scunthorpe United now be moved to the 'non football' section

And Lincoln 4-0 at Peterborough

I take more pleasure from that if I'm honest, living in their backyard hehe

Oh, and all the in-laws are Lincoln fans.

I need to correct you.  Shouldn’t that read ‘Oh, and all the in-breds are NOW Lincoln fans’.

He was out of contract and they didn’t rate him at all 🤨

Not true, they wanted him to re-sign but he chose to join Hursty  here.

I notice massive Lincoln didn't even get close to selling out their away allocation at a team only an hour away. Seems like interest is dropping off now they don't win most weeks. Funny that.

£27 a ticket, cost of living crisis, rail strikes, crazy fuel prices and an away end that holds nearly 4000.

At the minute nobody should be mocking any away following given how difficult it is to get a round, costs etc.

Don’t forget, we didn’t exactly have the mad rush for our away games people suspected. No sell out for rochdale, slower sales for Orient, likely to be the same next week.

Now back on topic, scunny are gonna struggle but I suspect, should they play the same way they did for half hour on Saturdays against the shitter teams, they’ll probably be alright…

I think they are dropping off. Northampton to us, us to Rochdale (on a par with last seasons Lancs games but would have expected more), Stockport had only 900 at Mansfield which is only 50 odd miles. With a couple of pints and food even a local game is pushing £50.

And back on topic - can we just have one combined sstickied Scunthorpe / Lincoln thread rather than a new Scunthorpe thread every week?

I'd agree with that for any other club. But they're always very happy to tell us what a huge, hardcore fanbase they have yet only took 1600 to a local game just down the road in League 1 after being given an initial allocation of 2200. That's not a huge amount more than we took to Rochdale which is quite a bit further in travelling. They're massive though, they've told us often enough.

We have an abnormally large away following for the size of club we are, not sure it’s fair to say Lincoln and Scunny are poor because those aren’t bad numbers relative to the size of clubs they are. The cost of living crisis is biting, away games would almost be the first thing to go if people have to make sacrifices somewhere.

Regards Scunny, that game on BH Monday against Halifax already looks like a big one, as I don’t see them getting many points at Bromley.
