Yet here we are in our 3rd season in L1 with almost the lowest attendance in the country, it's embarrassing.
You can blame Covid, the holidays or a hundred other excuses but it doesn't seem to affect other clubs.
Must be frustrating for Mr Holt after all this investment.
The bottom line is our current gates are not viable to support a L2 club, let alone one in L1.
We will never get the support to compete at any league level what we need is enough to be self sufficient, not sure what this is but last average gate posted was 2862 I think possibly not far off , I should imagine 3000+ average would not be far off but unlike before Andy Holt took charge we don't owe any money to anyone so are probably better off than a majority of other clubs. We were lucky Andy came along and when he ultimately steps aside he will hopefully have left a lasting legacy, dream on about huge gates they will improve slightly I think unless we get in the Championship, without Andy,s involvement we would have gone under.
