If we lose next Saturday could the game against Chorley be our lowest attended for this bank holiday ever?

I’ve bought 4 tickets for the MRS today and there weren’t that many available in the middle section town end.

If we win, that would be 3 league wins on the bounce. Could be a quite good crowd

Not a chance even if we get beat at Sutton we will have at least 3500 on Boxing day,with checking just one Boxing day fixture from the 80s I came across Boxing day 1985 a crowd of 2217 was at the racecourse to watch Preston a game I would have attended,without checking old programmes the chances are Preston would have brought 800 fans at least.

Yup.

There's plenty of blokes who'll want to get out of the house.

A strange implicit wish for Xmas. How odd?

Boxing day means tradition - people home for the holiday who normally wouldn't go - many men getting out of the house to avoid the family witch (mother in law) - it's the one fixture where fans will turn out in significant numbers.
Being a 6 pointer will also have a certain appeal.
How many will Chorley bring ? it's only up the road and a ground they haven't visited before - their turn out could be interesting.

I'll be there on boxing day - always have done always will - however wont be hanging around to watch Looka pulling out repeat winners from the top inch of tickets in the WST raffle again - had enough of that farce.

Doubt it. Think there will be around 4000 regardless. Tradition and that.

What difference 12 months makes !! (or rather this board have made)

Wrexham 5 Salford City 1 Att 8,200

Three managers later and hundreds of thousands of £££ wasted...….what a missed opportunity
