Agree that price was probably a factor. After forking out for a game on Tuesday, perhaps some couldn't afford to go on Saturday. Problem is, the club is caught between a rock and a hard place - if they reduce the admission drastically, will they be rewarded with an increase in walk ons to make up the financial shortfall? Reckon they should try it for one match to see what happens.
dropping prices wont help. You either go week in week out,the odd one or two games or not at all. Add up all league attendances for any weekend and its not much of the countries population, which is millions.
Keep up your support, thats all you can do.
