    Agree to a large extent but that wouldn’t have worked for last season due to demand from sheffield Wednesday circa 240,000

    And all that’s absolutely fair enough. No one should have to justify whether do or don’t decide to go a football match. Their time, their money.

    I think the bit that personally gets under my skin though, is when people withdraw their support but still carry on with the criticism.

    Agree with that, okay if not going fair enough, but don’t keep going on and fuelling negativity, that’s helping no one at all. Just stay away and come back when we in championship next season ha!

    I think it’s their right as a customer to criticise, they’ve parted with hard earned money. Unless you’re referring to those who criticise and put nothing into the club in terms of bums on seats or £££? In that case I agree.

    240,000 was just their season ticket holders...double that for pay on the day fans.

    Better fan alert, i have interest in supporting but will be doing so from the comfort of my living room, i would have been going tomorrow but was that deflated Saturday thought if they aren’t putting the effort in why should i ? I’d said months ago I wouldn’t go Wembley and i stick by that. I of course want us to win the next 3 games so do wish them good luck but i have every right to be despondent about the football side and none footballing side both of which has been poor all season and the off field stuff even longer.

    Yeah I’m talking about people who haven’t parted with any hard earned money, but constantly criticise.

    I think anyone who is fortunate enough to not have any financial or personal circumstances that prevent them from going Friday and isn't going is a massive, massive fanny. I rate them slightly better than Jeremy Kyle but slightly worse than William Hague as people.

    Just my view.

    There are 18 other sets of supporters who would be chewing their own tongues off to be in our position. 3 games to potential promotion… I’m guessing much of their football has been similar or worse than ours over the season. The only real explanation for low attendances has to be cost of living, or bank holiday plans.

    End of day lets face it, we have a very fickle fan base, some clubs have gone through worse scenarios than we have this season

    I do plenty of moaning about the state of the club, ask anyone that knows me! Only health issues would stop me attending though. It’s just in my DNA now.
    Agree that we have a fanbase more fickle than most.

    That's just clearly not true. Our home support has been very stable for two decades.

    Bolton will win both legs comfortably. We can't defend and are so disjointed and slow going forward we can't score unless it's a worldy. Pass along back four, hoof. Cole and Mcatee running about feeding off scraps. Connell going sideways and backwards. Phillips crowding Mcatee and Cole getting in the way. Kane and Cadden playing between themselves on the left. Cadden's crosses not beating the first man. O'Keefe getting down the wing and passing back to Williams or Connell. Williams overlapping and not crossing. Getting players in the box and not delivering the ball. It's been crap all season.
