Our large away following has oddly coincided with the worst period in the clubs history.

I hear town fans bang on about large away followings yet remember going to Sheff Utd and only taking 900 or a few hundred to Wolves.

Lincoln were dreadful for years except one season in League 1, the made 3 playoffs on the spin without looking like going up, to the point where they took a small number to one final. They saw rapid investment by way of time, money and a culture shift, they capitalised and have had consistently high home attendances ever since.

Away followings vary at most clubs barring the top flight, many a reason. Really not sure mocking clubs or laughing at the number of fans they had is worth it, not even really banter between fans to me. 10 or 10k, away support should always be commended.

And besides, attendances don’t mean you’re any good, Newcastle are dreadful and have won intercourse all but they’re quick to tell you they’ve got loads of fans (they did lose a fair few when they went down, which they happen to forget/ignore)…

Lord, what a glum vid.

And as for the muppets stopping the Solihull coach leaving, I know you would like some of their players but that is not how you get them!

Lost to 10 men Bromley today.

Can't see Keith Hill surviving until Monday the way Scunny get through managers.

Noooo, everybody get sending e-mails to Mr Swann explaining how Keith Hill is a marvellous manager, I think we would all agree he’s doing a great job.🤣🤣🤣
