I was only thinking that I forgot to take a picture of that, being such an unusual event. I always take on of the other end when it is full. Ponty certainly looked great - be interesting to see the East Stand when the highlights come out. 11,000 was still less than half full but nice to see anyway.
Very few seats in ponty end left and around me in east stand seemed packed too. We'll done to the club making it fiver in shows the fans are still there and we were only playing Fleetwood in a unfashionable cup too.
I couldn't help thinking of the countless times this has happened over the years. Going back decades we've seen a match being talked up so much that a bigger than usual crowd has turned up........ only to be let down by a below par performance. It wasn't ALL bad today but not good enough to tempt back those who only turned up because it was a fiver. Shame that.
Tremendous sight! It was a great atmosphere with the Ponty in fantastic voice throughout. Such a shame the players let us down yet again with a sub-standard performance.
It is a rare event it wouldn't have happend if the club hadn't have made it a fiver let's face it its a mickey mouse cup. But like the reeve says the fans are still there start playing the good stuff and they will be back.
