3274 with560 away fans

[Roly Ugolini]

I tried to buy my usual season ticket seat on line and print it off on Saturday night.
I went through the my account bit and put in password but it would not accept the answer to “my favourite colour” despite going through the Dulux colour card.
It advised me to contact ticket office.
In the end I gave up and stayed at home
Bad move as I ended up having to get Christmas decorations out of attic!!

I just think we must have had a large number of season ticket holders not attending, given that to me the number of paying home fans yesterday of 2700 approx looked far more than the official 3300 number last time out.

No I don't think so.

The stadium looked quite bare of supporters in seats.

Much depends on where you sit and what you can see infront of you.

Within the Tech End it seemed busy but that was because of the massive void created in taking out the block of seats nearest the Yale Stand.

Mold Road looked sparsely populated especially towards either of the sides and the Yale had plenty of open space.

The point of season ticket holders means that once you have one you feel almost obliged to turn up as you have already spent your cash - however the cup competitions mean additional outlay - no doubt some just don't bother.

We shouldn't forget that the match was just the first round of the FA Cup - not massively appealing to many.

Less than that 40/40/20 split FA has a cut

Don't think that applies to us. As a non league club we get 50% unless the rules have changed.

Remembrance Sunday as well.

A later start could have made a difference.

Plus families go out for Sunday lunch, add to that the expense of Xmas ahead and Xmas shopping, lots of reasons... But lack of goals season after season by us has not helped

Another issue: if you try as a season ticket holder to book your seat online seatadvisor tells you it is unavailable. This means a trip into Wrexham to buy your ticket at the club shop. Not always possible with other commitments or distance.
