    I dont think thats right

    Our Average attendence in the promotion season in 2006 was only 9045 so I am sure a fair number of those games were under the 8900 we had today

    Lowest attendence since we returned to the second tier I think though

    low crowds because:-

    Even last season no league attendance was below 10,000 but this season we get one below 9,000. Before this season you would have to go back to the 2007-08 season for the last time we didn't have a five figure league attendance and that was against QPR on Tuesday 26th of February.......

    Before this season the last saturday league attendance below 10,000 was the same 2007-08 season against Plymouth when 9,240 turned up.

    Today was the lowest league crowd for an home match since Chesterfield came on 08/04/06 when we had 8,303 and it was on a saturday.......

    It appears to be at the Well, especially with the manager's comments.

    Lots of clubs struggling - everton didn't sell out against Liverpool or man utd - that doesn't happen often. They only had 24000 against Chelsea - tough times.

    So there you have it, you're completely right, the dreadful football we've been served up for two games at the start of the season and once again since (at home) are turning fans away...
