This will only be a problem for clubs spending beyond their means no?

Good point, may actually help us if we can keep the buzz going with all the extra revenue.

The manager of a club with 2k average fans is annoyed that a club with 8k average fans pay more for their strikers. Ok.

Sour grapes, oh dear ,how sad , never mind.

Only read the outline in The Times. Need to see the full report and recommendations.

Think it all just added to the drama of proper game under the floodlights with a good atmosphere. You beat us, but it was a great 2nd half and look forward to us bringing a fair number to your place and another cracking game.

You are fifth in the league and your attendance was only 3,334 of which 1,212 were our fans and you say you travel well, you have to be disappointed in that.

In relation to our average home crowd we do travel relatively well to local games.
We are averaging around 17-1800 home fans this season. And I imagine if we are challenging we will bring 500 odd on a Tuesday night. Think in last seasons of average success we’ve bought 250-400. Not anything like you but in relation to our size it’s not horrendous.

Sorry misread your original post. Yes we are disappointed but it is improving. And if we maintain the brand of football this season then I think it will improve even more. We haven’t had 2100 home fans on a Tuesday night for last ten years easy.

I enjoyed the win and feel a little lucky to have come away with 3 points. Difference between success and failure was the width of the post.
Great atmosphere, didn't think much of your managers comments, I know they're designed for the home support but I don't think he was watching the same game.
First half was 2 teams sparring with each other, Halifax played it around on the floor and had some decent possession without threatening and we only had one real effort that passed the post.
Thought Wrexham had the better of the second half chances and the goal was against the run of play down to a basic error which you capitalised on. A flat ten minutes before we got going again and then equalised. Quick thinking by Davies and we end up with Mullin on goal. Only one outcome from that point.
You look to have a good young side, we might come and poach Walters.

I’d say you get reasonable gates to be fair. Some of our fans seem to forget themselves sometimes. There’s Huddersfield Leeds & Bradford very close by who will take a lot of support away from local area.

And we don't have top Prem clubs within an hour drive away.
