Get anyone you can to this game and lets smash the 5,000 mark.

I like the positive post and "If only" the Racecourse should be turned into a fortress with the 12th man, it would be great I agree if we could get that atmosphere at home, but let's take into account it was a local Derby which raises the decibels and a very brilliant defensive display when it was needed away from home with 10 men.

But at home playing defensive football simply won't get the fans out of their seats it's not good to watch get excited about being honest.

But yes it would be fantastic if we could get that vocal support at home. Also their was just 1500 of committed loyal fans in the ground at home we are spread around the ground although the Techend is where most vocal support is, if only we still had the Kop standing up all seating has killed the atmosphere even at bigger clubs than us.

Stuff like this simply isn't on the club's agenda anymore, and will be even less so while the team is doing ok (and just before cup competitions get going for us when a tenner a pop might be the default). It would be nice to see something like this scheduled for games where there needs a boost and there could be some time to build momentum to make it a success (hello December 23rd v Dover), but there hasn't been an initiative like that for a league game in years and I don't expect that to change any time soon.

There would not be time to prepare an event style game. I understand and appreciate the comments and the options for advertising have been discussed on many occasions also.

What can be done at what is now short notice, is all fans can get in the ears of any floating fans to come along ( I know the team has countless time let us all down, but contrary to the myth its not 100% of the time )

We all own our club, this is a great opportunity to do our bit. You guy's on here are all hardcore supporters and constantly back the club in various ways, this is one way where you, at no cost to yourself can have an impact on the gate income and help create a tremendous atmosphere.

Continue in this vain and we can push on during the Jan transfer window.

Looking forward to seeing Kelly in the middle alongside Wright and mackreth out wide - it's going to be sick!

And those suckers won't stand a chance without their personal pitch!

I just don't think a lot of people know about this. When I tell people I save £1 from buying in advance and then my u11 costs £1 they think its great. Then my 12 year old is in for just £3. Add to that the ability to pre-book your exact seat.

I don't see this advertised much though which could be me not seeing it but I would expect to see more Facebook adverts etc.. Obviously there are the bold letters that say TICKETS and NEXT UP but having something that reads pre-paid family bundle £23 would get more looking surely and booking in advance rather than waiting?

A fit Holroyd is key to the system as he links the midfield and attack. I wouldn’t be surprised if Keates replaces Wedgebury with Carrington to maintain the stable midfield base.

We won’t be expected to defend with 9 men behind the ball on Saturday but we’ll need to be mindful that Sutton are no mugs.

For me, nothing changes. A draw would not be disastrous.

I was behind 2 blokes in a queue at Barclays this morning who were moaning about why they won't go any more. Couldn't help but interrupt politely and get all evangelical on them, especially after Saturday's result.

TBH I would keep stuff like that for the early FA Cup & Trophy games.

If we can get some more goals then the crowds will start edging up but ifs ultra defensive performances every game then you can't really see it going much over 5000.
