I hate to sound a note of pessimism amidst all the jubilations, but is anybody else as concerned about current attendances as I am? The gates were nothing to write home about last season, but incredibly, now we've gone fulltime, they appear to be even worse. 1,705 for the opening match followed by a miserly 1,270 for last Saturday. What are they going to be like on a freezing January afternoon?

I don't know anything about football finances, but surely we'll be struggling to pay talented professionals the wages they want on gates of 1,270?
