If we can challenge towards the top, I'd expect to see average crowds pushing towards 6,000 (we saw this in the early days of Mills tenure). This would hugely increase our potential budget and allow us to compete on a more level playing field with the clubs who are "sugar daddy" owned. What I'm saying is that the potential is there for our club to compete with almost any club in this league financially despite us not having external funding. |

Again, I hear what you say but I'm not seeing where this 6k average is coming from. We're operating on a phenomenal average gate given the last 3 seasons. We have the ability to get 8-9k for a playoff game and maybe double that for a Wembley trip but to average 6k is bloody tough. If we were in contention we'd average that for the last few home games. |

Re: 3 Year expectations?
Each season we should be aiming to win the league. After 9 years in this league, the minimum must be play offs. I don't go with 3 year plan. Each year some say it is a 2 year plan. We will never get out of this league without aiming high. We cannot go on with 2/3 year plans. The plan must be for next season not any other.

Re: 3 Year expectations?
This coming season has to be about seeing signs of clear improvement. Keates is basically starting from scratch in terms of his playing squad, which as Darlington said in his interview can be viewed as both as a positive and a negative. The good thing is Keates can bring in exactly who he wants, the bad thing is he also has to bond them and build an identity.
This season is a classic 'transitional' season. Hopefully we can build and retain a nucleus that can really give promotion a good go in 2018/19. 3 years from now I'd love to be looking forward to starting the season in the Football League. |

Despite an appalling second half of the season our average attendance over that season was still not far off 5,000. The potential is there. |

Instead we went a couple of years backwards and so we've needed another rebuild because those players just weren't good enough. Same thing happened when Wilkin took over, all we expected was to challenge and we had a mid-table flaky effort with another set of new players. After challenging for 3 seasons running that was the benchmark for us, to do that every season, the title is always a long shot because we've not had stability on the pitch for a few years now. |
