Obviously riding the crest of a wave at the moment, long may it continue.

Yesterday Pools had the second highest attendance in league two. Brilliant for the club

Swindon 8631
Hartlepool 6112
Leyton Orient 4901
Walsall 4257
Sutton 3262
Scunthorpe 2737
FG Rovers 2507
Crawley 2254
Barrow 2116
Harrogate 1883
Salford 1687

Salford's is absolutely pathetic. South Shields get around that and Macclesfield FC get about 500 more in the NINTH tier of English football.

Does FFP no longer exist or?

Brilliant - not only are we back in the football league, but also having a great start and packing them in at the Vic, and well done to the Carlisle fans for supporting their team.

makes you wonder how they get away with it.

Is it because of who you are?

Birmingham city had a points deduction a couple of seasons ago for breaking FFP but Derby avoided a points deduction (and relegation) last season for a similar issue. Aston Villa raised funds by selling their training ground to themselves? that dodged their FFP penalty just before they got promoted.

I'm pretty sure all football fans just want to see the rules applied consistently across all levels. The situation of some clubs and their annual losses is terrifying. It can't sustain itself.

doubt anyone is bothered at the FA or the EFL. imagine a situation where teeams like chelsea and man.u cannot compete with brentford in the premier league transfer market. there would be an overnight uproar. it does not matter that pools and most of the rest have problems keeping up with salford and harrogate though. its not just poolies who have a dislike of these two fans of all the others i,ve met think the same.

I'm glad to see harrogates attendance was so low keep it up and see how many of our players they can by with those crowds

Their sugar daddy isn't bothered by small crowds! As long as his lad fulfils his dream of being a successful manager...

Is ‘his lad’ still manager?

aye looks like it.

just read the owner is worth £145 million....

they won't be going bust soon eh?

In theory you could end up with a load of lower league ‘hobby clubs’ owned by millionaires...again in theory.
Imagine if it came true.....

League two .....
Linseed Honeypot Rovers............formerly Mansfield Town.
Arthur Plumploaf Bakers Utd....... formerly Northampton Town.
Rampton Rogers Rovers..............formerly Swindon Town.
Carlisle Plywood Utd.
Bradford Poledancing Collective FC.
Janice Jazz Pipes Nail Emporium Utd....formerly Scunthorpe United.
Bobby Tangleweed Pubic Toupee’s Utd....formerly Bradford City.
Dave Self-inflicted Door Security... formerly Colchester Ladies FC.
Woke Town Zero Carbon FC.
......and so it could go on, teams where the crowd is limited to the owners family members and ‘associates’ at a ground on the owners estate and the original ground sold for redevelopment.
It’s the future......

unless the owners proper business either goes tits up or even starts to lose money. think all our hobbies take the back seat when we are a bit pushed for dosh.

Love how the owner of Forest Green is vegan, so...... all the food on sale on match days is vegan too.
These are the things that piss me off, you go to be entertained not be dictated to.

Anutha outstanding attendance.
Slightly more Pay as u go fans than ST holders this season.
Will have the Debt payed off by the end of season.
Eh

Will never understand why the early bird wasnt extended, made zero incentive to get one after the playoff final.

or just make the early bird the normal price.

typical vegan and veggie attitude. they expect or demand you cater for them but will not do it for you. doubt i,ll ever go down to their place but a pork pie in each pocket should be a must for away fans.

Its ironic that, for guy who holds such green credentials, he has no idea of what a sustainable football club is.

He probably thinks his largesse amounts to sustainability...maybe his ‘green credentials’ are what alters his perception of sustainability.... not that I ever associated greens with sustainability in the financial sense.

like em or not the greens will cost all of us extra money in the end. even next winter many will have a choice of eating or heating. will only get worse once their expensive heating comes to us all. even for us who are a bit better off with older and not exactly anciant petrol cars we,ll have to pay over 15p a litre at the pumps to avoid the new E10 fuel or go through the pain of removing the ethenol from it before you put it in your tank.
