The town & its football fans are to blame by staying away. All the boardroom games are a by product of trying to run a pro football team on a shoestring.

IMHO....

We move on....
You hit the nail right on the WM,it can't be easy to run a club with the lowest average attendances in the league.And out of curiosity where did all the fans go after we got promoted,i can remember standing on the clayton end with you Hobby etc getting **** wet through,then low and behold we get promoted and get a roof and most of them stop attending matches.It certainly puzzles me,mind you if we qualify for the play offs and dare i say it reach the play off final at Old Trafford i suspect they will crawl back out of the wood work,and we'll find we magically have thousands more fans than we thought.It's ashame Eric's getting so much flack,yes this protracted wrangling at board level has caused problems,but the fans who are calling Eric now are the same ones who couldn't praise him enough when we got promotion.Lets hope we now go on to greater things,starting with another 3 points today against the cobblers.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
