Which we both did. I'm not sure there's a lot more people can do to answer your original question tbh, if you choose to ignore or discount all the examples folks have given of community engagement, although it does make you look a bit silly.

How so. the examples given are flagging up things back in the summer which were said would happen, like players and staff going into local schools and doing coaching etc.? Presumably this has happened and there's stuff about showing it. I don't know, just interested.

However back in the summer, I suggested a fan's forum would be a good idea.

I believe there is a Q&A with players/management at the upcoming Loathed Strangers quiz night

Indeed which calls for evidence.... I've taken advice and looked on the official site, and found back in the summer some players went into Croft, in order to divvy out 200 ST's. That's it though, now it could be they just haven't got round to updating, all the examples that others know of but I don't.

Interesting they went to Croft, I wonder if any of the players or staff told the little un's that their school is sited on one of STFC's early grounds?

Sexy beast then.... the players should put in a team Doughty must know shit.

Back in the day the TEF could field a quiz team, but I always reckoned it's participants were more interested in JFW than the questions.

Good stuff.... but again FTIC and not any of the mentioned players in schools coaching that was flagged up, and Davis and Rob said was happening, but I'm just too pathetic to have noticed (that's Davis not Rob)

Talk about dying on a hill. You need to get down the res more often. These fishing trips on the TEF don't really work any more  Fishing.

Interestingly (or not) last night from confirmed attendances;

Bradford  14,345 (I think their long term season tickets are still in operation?)
Plymouth   8,810
Cambridge 4,898
Mansfield   4,170

All the rest were;
4 at 4-3k
2 at 3-2k
1 at 2-1k

I assume we had more than Cambridge but less than Plymouth. Even 5k would be a "good" gate for L2  Tuesday nights. Discounting Bradford, makes us 2nd highest gate. Considering we don't win on Tuesdays, are shit and spiralling into capitulation; that's not bad at all  Wink

I'll take a punt at 5.5k

Definately not been announced by the club, but I would guess around 5,800 with 100 from Stevenage at most.

Agree, he also seem very keen which is a good trait. He's also getting increasingly quick with his distribution and has decent short passing which when combined with his speed off the line has put him ahead of McCormick. The command of his area will come with experience as this will be his first season playing alongside experienced pro's so will take some time to gain the confidence to order them around.
Some of his starting positions were really good, he definitely earned us those points as much as Doyle did last night.
