Expecting a bumper crowd then! bbolt

Suppose given it's a cup replay- season tickets don't count. I'm still sticking with a win on spot kicks
Crowd 1874
137 away fans

Is our supreme leader using the opportunity to get us used to gate sizes even further down the Leagues…?
A warm up for the years ahead ?

Same last season against Brackley in the cup, I was at the game, only just over 2000 crowd and it was a Saturday game, horrible day cold wet and windy. I can’t see many more tonight therefore no need to open the stand up.

I acknowledge what you’re saying Jamie, but for most of m6 time at Vic the gates were sub 2,000 and the ground was open on all sides…..the weather is dull but surprisingly mild, but can’t see people beating a path to the ground to get there given our recent form.

It's kind of please don't come and disturb us tonight. It makes me wonder if Grayson was sacked for getting this extra earning opportunity that they can't be bothered with. Great advert for a company.

Give it a year and fans will be replaced by inflatable fans to guarantee a full house and not answer back…….this nonsense over the match commentary is serving what purpose exactly…?
Petty, petty , petty…pathetic.

There might be a commentary from the Gainsborough end that we could access.

I did intend going but not to be shoe-horned into the CK stand. Can understand not opening the full ground but no standing tickets available is a joke. Wonder which bright spark thought this one up.

Why don’t that wonderful board and owner of ours change our club motto to ‘a singular lack of ambition’, which can be defined as "describes an individual [or group] with a very strong, individual, or unusual absence of desire for success, achievement, or a grand life path”.

As I said I was at the Brackley game, we weren’t exactly shoe horned into the CK Stand, loads of spare seats, midweek games don’t attract crowds more so as many fans are currently staying away due to the current ownership. I expect a crowd of no more than 2500

Theres only blocks C to J in the CK stand available to buy, so 2500 would most certainly be shoe-horned in! Have a look at what's left as available in the ticketing system and it's not for me, I prefer to stand in the MH or even the town end. There were lots boycotted cup matches previously when only the Town End was shut, I'd imagine there'll be a lot from the Town End and MH side don't bother tonight. Around 1000 is my guess for the attendance. F*cking madness to piss off your own fans in this way, for what?

That would take thought and consideration Johnny - the simple solution as I've said previously only requires a can of paint, a brush and one stroke- just paint over the word Never and we'll be left with 'Say Die' - job done!

you are not far off with not many more poolies there than that. how to piss off your own fans and ruin the club could not have been done better than someone who hated pools with a passion could do. however things got worse with the result and the only noise heard was from less than 200 from gainsborough. we have had many dark days in the past but surely the last few days have hit a new low.

Didn't go last night for the sole reason I didn't want to sit in a corner of the CK stand. First time I've ever missed a home game that I could have attended in over 50 years. I didn't totally dodge a bullet though because some bright spark posted that it was available to watch in YouTube - thanks for f*ck all!!

1267 according to the O.S.plenty of empty seats in the CK stand then, so actually a few fans voiced their thoughts by not attending the game, Singh take note.

it shows when somebody level headed about the club and players decide to stay away. shows its not just the gobshites.

I was thinking that, there was a load of gaps.

Think it was a comment about the abysmal Pools performance, but absolutely no need to shoot the messenger. Thanks for letting us know it was there Gray. I wouldn't have believed how bad we were if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes.

Of course it was about the fact that I watched such an abysmal performance, the last comment was intended as humour.
