Poor attendance today

[clayton vale]

Well that confirms it wasn't you who ran on the pitch yesterday.

 

My missus laughed. Was it really THAT cold?:D

Saddest thing about today, after a great win and a great performance, is that the biggest debate isn't about the team and how well they did today, its about the size of the crowd and is SEO "working". By the way what exactly does that mean ? - presumably that crowds drop and our promotion challenge goes down the tubes and we end up like Crewe. Fantastic !!

Christ, we had a great win today and all I feel is sick about what we are doing to our great club. One final thing not everyone will return to Vale Park after SEO has "won". Once people find other things to do and get used to not going to watch Vale then they won't come back - no matter what changes happen in the boardroom - another victory for SEO I supose!!

 

On the Board, then?

I hope when Glenn and Bratt are gone.

 

surely you mean 'IF' glenn and bratt are gone...you dont honestly believe that they will do what they have suggested and step down any time soon do you? I suppose in the end due to nature taking its course, they will be gone but they will not leave while they believe that they dont have to. We all know what selfish/deluded b@5tards they are.

5 who sit with us were at V - I'm guessing plenty more did too. It's a bank hol and last week of school hols were plenty wi be getting away next week.

 

Why don't you conduct your test of which your so passionate about avaunt Bradford (tue night) or Shrews?

[clayton vale]

Vale arent the only ones with lower attendances; Bradford9594, over 10,000 last year, Shrewsbury 5050 derby vs crwho, top of the table Rotherham (or were) 3546. That time of year.

Yeah fair enough, holidays, music festivals and school holidays were only invented this year, so you may have a point.

Yawn.

No, just since Crawley.

 

I'd prefer to work out which numpties missed 4 goals

If it helps I know people who havent bought season tickets who normally do, Went the Crawley game but intend pick their games, Crewe, Shrewsbury etc

[grebovale]

Well am going against the trend as per usaly. My reason for a poor crowd,loads went Stoke last week to whatch Chelsea and it was £40 then went Burton so paying £20 to watch VALE is a bit to much.

[Tumbleweed_MVF]

Accy had about 115 today I believe and to be fair, had it not been Crawley's first game in the league, they too would have bought a bus load.

 

did they bring that many didnt look like it?

Over on the official website the away following is shown as 105

[tonyh]

4614 with 105 visitors, that's just 4509 Vale fans.

 

That's abysmal and I bet now we'll see the board panicking a lot more. Hence the ST offer I guess.

Wait till the holidays is over before you make a judgement.

So what, Mark, is your estimate of those missing due to to SEO? Of those who sit by us, there's Nath, Stu and Martin. That's 4 fewer than those who said they wouldn't be coming at the end of last season.

I cycled from Eccleshall and the canalside from Trentham was quiet, despite Stoke not playing.

How many Vale fans second league game for the last 3 seasons?

I thought their was less than 50 Stanley fans tbh..

[tisdeano]

no where near the break even figure

 

these holidays are right weird in burslem, no one goes when we play crawley, yet every one decides to go this week end, what an amazing coincidence
