Going forward 12:51 - Mar 14 with 1231 views | cooper442 | I'm seriously concerned about the long term damage that the present set-up is doing to the club,the impression i get on here is that, if we get a new manager and the style of play improves the fans will start to return. Once people have found other things to do on a Saturday, it's not as easy to just say ,ok forget that lets start going to the football again . It breaks my heart when i ask my kids "who wants to go the football?" and they reply "no thanks dad" . | | | | |

I'd imagine the first game of next season, hopefully with a club with a big away fan base could be 24 / 25 k or so as a new era etc. Season ticket sales would be up, the casual fan much more likely to return. Until the 10 / 12 game mark that is. If results start to falter, people will quickly lose interest I would say. Time will tell. Mick's surely off. | | | |

I don't think we'll see 25k figures or even close until we are firing on all cylinders I don't know any manager out there who would be able to excite the fans that much to get thousands back so soon. | |

The only way we get back to 25k is by being top 2 by Christmas. Even the. I bet it would be a stretch. | | | |

We would sell out every week if we went up and we would get 25k+ if we were top of the league. Forget about who the Manager is, who the Owner is. Results are what will bring fans in, Mick isnt right about much but he is bang on about that. | |

even being top we still wouldn't get a packed house in this league, those days have gone They've killed off all previous pensioners ( most obviously ) a lot have passed, a lot getting older.. we don't have a new fan base when we were top 3 with a chance of going top, we still weren't close to filling the stadium | |

These are all fair points but I disagree. If we went top people would come flooding back and if we went up we would be full. | |
