Yes i remember last season and those Tuesday night games, the Terrace packed solid :lol:

Actually a qick gander and the rougth average against smaller oppo on Tuesday nights last season was about 1,000.

Last night wasn't helped by the fact that Histon hardly brought any fans with them. Don't think I heard them sing once.

The trouble that since the trust took over the club have hardly done much to try and keep the fans let alone getting new ones through the gates

It's all well and good throwing criticism about, but what would you do to entice new fans in and keep the current ones happy? Remember that the budget for this is £0 and manpower is limited..

It's Histon on a Tuesday night. It won't get any worse than that.
