Re: Desperate measures.....
I think i've been at Steel Park previously when there's been around 230 there and it looked extremely sparse. Considering that terrace behind the goal alone could probably hold 2000.
I see Troy Johnston is playing for K*ttering.

Re: Desperate measures.....
It will be interesting to see how many turn up when it is a certainty they cannot avoid relegation. I think that may be the case as they are likely to get a further 10 point deduction for breach of CVA. Troy is using the club to try and achieve something better, because I think our whole squad could play for KTFuC

Re: Desperate measures.....
What are Northampton doing sending Lewis to K*ttering? How does it help his development? Anyway LOL at the attendance and scoreline.

Re: Desperate measures.....
Yep, obviously at some point they want to be able to turn a corner and be on the up again but until that happens they're going to have to suffer with sub 200 crowds, it really would be better for them to reform in the UCL and get rid of all the stuff with the CVA and lease and bull**** off their backs. Low level or not, they'll get better crowds for a club on the up and winning a few games than one on its way down, which may very well continue if they're in the SL central next season.Mat.H wrote:187 is pitiful realy the guys that are working to keep it going must be wondering when the say let it die, once relegation is certain and crowds drop below 100?
Though I think 187 is just about the lowest they can get right now, surely anyone who's going to abandon ship has already done so?

Re: Desperate measures.....
Assuming a proportion of the 187 were season ticket holders, one wonders if the takings will cover the costs of hiring Steel Park, paying for the floodlights / match officials etc - let alone the player expenses, or contribution towards the costs for the next away game.
Perhaps they might struggle to see out the season on gates like that.
