Not wanting to go over old ground, but I do find that a lot of people that complain about our attendances are those that don't go anymore, oh the irony.

This debate is taking a very strange circular route. Joteddy posed the original question, when was the last time we had fewer than 6000 home fans at a league game? I gave the answer, Feb 09, in fact we had another a couple of weeks later in March v Sarfend. Too early to say if this is a trend or just a blip |

Realistic expectations on attendance has to be around the 7k mark possibly 8k - it`s just how it is

I can see why people are annoyed. We aren't spending any money minus the 500k+ on players and increased wage bill. And we aren't signing any experience except Delfouneso, Norris, Thomas who all have over 100 league apps. And there hasn't been any clarity, except for Power and Williams telling us the targets we're going for. And all the signings will be cheap players no one else wants, like the promising players in Doughty, Goddard & Jones.
I've said it before. Our fuckwit supporters (not all of you of course) don't deserve success. They don't even know what they're angry at any more.

If the noisier segment of Swindon Town fans were American then they'd still be demanding to see Obama's birth certificate.

Give 500 morons access to a keyboard, and they'll write repetetive whiny bollocks, or something like that. |

Out of interest, who's moaning about attendances here?
We do however seem to have a number of folk, just assuming stuff which doesn't apparently exist., moaning for moaning's sake about non existent moaners.

From the station at Colchester
To the cells of Warrington
From the services at Leicester
To the slums of Northampton
We travel over England
And one day Europe too
Cos we all follow the Swindon
We're the famous Town End crew.

I think that's an attempt at irony/satire/sarcasm. |

I'm still fuming about the low attendance. It's a bloody disgrace.
I'm going to watch Fulham instead.

£20 each for 2 hours of questionable entertainment. Plus extras on top. Makes the cinema look cheap.

A lot of people still on holiday.
I stand with a group of anything up to 15 blokes.
Cov: 7
Vale: 8
All others including me missing due to holidays.
Should have about 11 on Saturday....Its Rovers of course but the hols are all ending and people are drifting back. We don't seem to be as shit as people expected so this will help the floaters.
