Make that 4-0!

Attendance is 164 and St. Ives are pleased with that. :shock:
Anything over 150 is pretty decent for UCL, especially considering its a Tuesday night and there's the odd club in conference north/south who get that. And I notice Darlo got 1200 for their first home league game, not quite the attendance they had for their 'away' game on Saturday but still very decent.

But oh dear, not looking good for K*ttering, I imagine those incredibly optimistic hopes of them winning every game and making the playoffs will be gone very soon and with a young squad and that 10 point handicap, just avoiding another relegation should be their main hope, that's if they complete the season though. How nice of them to continually keep providing entertainment :lol:

Volunteers appear to have withdrawn their services after Ladick's OWS statement.

Just when you think it's going to turn for them, it always doesn't. It's rather spectacular. They'll probably get 700 on Saturday but a loss and a draw in their next two games and I think there will be major apathy from their fans, as in actually not bothering to turn up to games. If they're at -7 after 1st September then they will be in massive danger (more than their already are).

Brackley had a good 5-0 win over Histon. Will be interesting to know what their attendance was.
