That's shockingly Poor with a capital p from GY for a derby match

Only just further than Grimsby to Cambridge- do you want a piece of this "rivalry" then?

Everyone is saving themselves for our new local derby at Stevenage in a couple of weeks.

750 bees at Orient

730, not 750. Dire either way.

 

[Ban Fat Stan]

It works out at 47% of our average home attendance, for a club with a small fan Base thats good for us. So equivalent of Orient taking 1800 to us.

Orient web site match report says 750

Orient web site match report says 750

Announced as 730 at the game, and official twatter has 730.

They probably remembered to count the Orient playing staff, who all put in as much effort as if they were Barnet fans.

We've sold nearly 2,900 tickets for Notts County on Saturday with some more being made available today. We're now officially the biggest team in Nottinghamshire.

Have Forest moved out then?

Any Cambridge fan on here got the Wednesday following from the EFL cup game, please

I remember reading Andrew Bennett's match report and he stated more than 1400 Wed fans were present but it didn't seem right to me as the South Stand was only half full. I know you were also given part of the Habbin but 1400 is a bit on the high side I reckon.

 

[Walkley_Owl]

We'd sold 1380 in advance, cheers though Vanni

I think I'm underestimating the capacity of the South Habbin then.

It was 1405.

 

[Walkley_Owl]

It was 1405.

Cheers pal

Boring stat - we've sold more for Notts County away on Saturday (3,100 when last counted) than the 2,981 we've taken combined in the last 11 away games

 

[jacobncfc]

Hope you get back to bringing more for the big day out than you get at home.

 

[Richard Cranium]

Only a few hundred less that what you had at your last home game.

Well, we've struggled at home.

The masses know we always win at county, so they know the right deals.....

In all honesty, radford is doing all he can do regarding home attendances, but 1 get 1 free on the next 2 home games

 

[jacobncfc]

Fair point. This is basically the fewest fans we've ever had going to matches, though.

I might be making this up and can't be arsed to check, but is it you lot who've got absurdly expensive prices for kids?

Of all Hardy's wacky ideas, making it free for kids to get in is one I quite like. And probably necessary before our entire fanbase die.

Yea, he did have. Then fan pressure led to a bit of a change of heart. A parent and a child can get in now for £18 and you get a pop or something or other chucked in, he's innovative and does listen. He's got us making a tidy sum from all the match day stuff, so we're fortunate we can try this stuff out.

Glad of that because that's the only match I looked at

How many home fans do you think will be there Saturday with the takeover news?

It's hard to tell. On the one hand a lot of people had just given up on the Trews so will come back and give the new guy a go. On the other we've lost ten in a row, won one home game this season and just three in twelve months, so they're not all going to come back straight away.

Hardy has been talking about wanting to push 10k for this, which seems wildly optimistic, but with you lot bringing 3,500 or whatever it might not be that far off.

 

[AdamStag]

Well it was just over 10,000 last time with 2,700 from us - we've supposedly sold about 3,300 to do date, so maybe another hundred tomorrow so it might be pushing it
