The Ultras and their support helped us to stand out in the conference - they were the reason most away fans wanted to visit our ground. It feels like the heart and soul of stanley matchdays was taken with the loss of Jase and the whole flag saga....all that is left now that distinguishes us from any other league 2 club is our low attendances and paltry facilities (things that did not matter in the conference days) - and these are the things that any new visitor to the Crown (away fan or potential home fan) takes away with them. I have no doubt if we reclaimed our reputation as the best supporters in the land this would go some way towards increasing gates.
