Tonights Gate

Slagging off fans is no way to get them to come to games. People will come if they want, and stay at home if they want. Slagging off just gets people more likely to stay at home. Perhaps many were still on holiday ?

I personally think 2.7k is not bad for a small town the size of Accy. Expect this to be the average for the season. Not going to get much bigger for run of the mill games.

All in all, I would've hoped with a town population of 33,000(ish) that at least 1 in 10 would want to see the first home league game of the club in 44 years.
Not only for football purposes, but for something to be proud of in Accy - I mean come on - what else is there?! Bricks?!
 
Just a thought - are season ticket holders counted amongst the gate?

Because surely the money paid for season tickets was paid, declared and taxed weeks ago, so would not be counted on top of 2600 paying guests.

Or are the turnstiles there to merely count ins and outs?

And we do have quite a lot of staff and sponsors and various other freeloaders who make the main stand appear more packed than it is.
