    Big club or not that’s unbelievable for 3rd tier football

    Only Wednesday v United many moons ago beats that attendance for the same league

    They don't have much competition up there and they will keep a good fan base for a few years even if they went non-league.

    Good effort but so what if they were slumbering at the bottom of the league?

    Was that when they used to guess the gates? Sky sports saying its a league 1 record, maybe its league 1 and not a third tier record.

    Let's hand it to them, that is immense support. It is a football town through & through.
    Hope we finish above them though.

    I reckon they will spend well in the Jan Window, and eventually run out league leaders with Portsmouth in second place, those two sides can command the bigger support purely because of their catchment areas.

    True that, it's about 20 odd ish mile from pompey to Southampton, 50 miles from here to Bournemouth and over 60 to brighton, to the north the nearest team is about 70 mile, from pompey to Southampton we probably have half a dozen teams within a 20 mile radius

    same with Sunderland... the two nearest are Newcastle and Middleborough. They will always get a good fan base. If they carry on getting attendances like that... even half that then they will be able to afford to buy and still be inside the farcical FFP rules.
