Seeing through the Bull*hit ?? 07:03 - Aug 19 with 5224 views | TalkingSutty | I think we are now all pretty immune to our poor attendances and last nights 'gate' could have been predicted but the attendance at giggle Lane was what caught my eye. Recently promoted so a obvious feel good factor, fantastic new training facilities, loads of media attention and a 'Chair' who sees himself as the bury Abromovich. Less than 3000 fans for a local Derby (Probably 2600 home fans) after a decent start to the season is piss poor. It's obvious the public of bury are not buying into Flickers and the chairs big plans. After all the hype it's shocked me to realise bury's hardcore support is actually on a par with ours now. With the money being thrown at the 'Chairs' project he must have been expecting a better reaction from the bury public but it's not happened. A glut of players on high salaries and a massive training complex to fund, the 'chair' must have very deep pockets because income from the paying public will only scratch the surface. The overheads must be massive, there's a lot to be said for living within your means. [Post edited 19 Aug 2015 7:15]

Seeing through the Bull*hit ?? on 21:32 - Aug 19 by ColDale | Wouldn't even bother with the paying adult. Most fans go with friends rather than family. If we can develop groups of lads going week in week out, then we'll retain more of them than targeting those who can only go with a Parent. I'd personally have it that way for every game but its about addressing the 30% reduction in midweek attendances |
Yes I would agree with that. I think I should have posed it as a question regarding adults being with an Under 16, as yes you are right, they would come with their friends etc. Lets get the lads and lasses into watching the Dale. | |
