I wasn’t at the game how did he play ? Won a few headers, was a bit of a nuisance but didn't really have a great deal of involvement in what was, at that point, an omnishambles with us seemingly playing a 2-1-7 formation composed of headless chickens.

Well, yeah. Last season we commented on how well home attendances stood up, in spite of the poor results. Seems likely we will now see the more usual consequence of never bloody winning: people staying away. I expect Saturday's attendance to start with a 5 rather than a 6. Amazing to have over 6k home fans this afternoon 👏👏👏👏

The solidity of the home numbers is really quite something when you look at the results. The fairweathers should be dropping like flies. Yet, they're turning up - and we know it's the more casual fan because the season ticket sales were actually a bit disappointing.

I forgot about the away support. Still 6k is not bad. I was in the SS today and it looked like there was lot of first timers, clutching paper tickets looking lost lol. Hope the performance hasnt put them off!

There's a club here, just not a team.

Amazing to have over 6k home fans this afternoon 👏👏👏👏 There won’t be Tuesday I’m assuming though. Lots of kids won’t attend evening games along with people who’ve been today and can’t be bothered unfortunately. The club has done great work in attracting new, younger fanbase but ultimately it’s what happens on the pitch that brings them back. IMO all the great work they have done will be undone by the footballing side unless change happens

I wasn’t at the game how did he play ? He did not particularly distinguish himself, other than by wearing what appeared to be a pair of lady's hold-up stockings.

He played head tennis with Dan Barton during his half time warm up. Looked like a dad playing with his 8 year old son.
Already is our hardest, most barstardish looking player in the squad of nice lads.

IMO all the great work they have done will be undone by the footballing side unless change happens Loads of new kids and parents around in the SS today. The club has done a great job there, slightly frustrating to see Real Madrid, PSG and Arsenal tops but the parents are bringing them so fair play. The kids zone and popcorn/ice cream etc is pretty impressive. My youngest loves it and almost didn’t care about the result. That’s what counts for some of the fair weather fans. No doubt Tue night will be much lower, only me eldest will be joining and we’ve switched back to the NRE. Could be Monks last game in charge… As for Loft, looked lively. Got in some good positions and a couple of solid headers (albeit wide) enough to see potential and some hope there.
