I’ve been a fan for umpteen years

I think we have some good players

I think PH is an experienced honest manager

We are not buddies but I have met him. He’s a decent hardworking guy.

I’ve no idea what is going wrong and I hope it gets fixed in the next four or five weeks, but to sack him now is foolish.

Quoted from Lincoln Mariner 56
I would expect that those who post on the fishy provide a very representative percentage of the fans who attend matches. I changed the area of the Upper that I sit in this season and even before the game started those around were sarcastic in their expectations for entertainment in the next 90 minutes and of those of us who still remained at the end there was a significant displeasure at the performance and of those saying that’s it I’m not coming again to watch this crap, or words to that effect.

I commented on Saturday that I was very puzzled by the fact the crowd was 6300 plus as there were numerous spare seat’s around our area of the Upper, I could see a number of empty seats in the Ponny and there looked plenty of seats in the Osmond plus a poor away following. Doesn’t add up to me when we have had large followings, seemingly very few empty seats in any stand but officially very similar attendances as Saturday, very odd.


I agree with you on the attendance point the low figures reported for home support when all home seats were sold out earlier in the season are unrecocialbe with figure on Saturday when there clearly many more empty seats . I used to be very good at judging the attendance and I would have put Saturday at about 5600 . I know most don’t care about this stuff but just another odd thing going on at our football club.

I thought it looked about right (6k +) from where I was sat for what it's worth.

Personally I prefer to count the tickets sold regardless of who turns up.

We've counted only those in attendance in the past, in contrast to say Doncaster who last season counted all tickets sold regardless of how many attended.

The answer is really in the word itself- attendance. Otherwise it needs to be announced as tickets sold.
