I am not bothered how many turn up for the games as I am a season ticket holder so my seat is reserved. I do get upset when people who go regularly but can't afford a season ticket can't get tickets because someone who went to two games five years ago has taken their place.
What I am really alluding to is the fact that when the club has been struggling financially and need all the support they can get these people are nowhere to be seen. Its a chicken and egg situation the better the finances, the better the team, the better the stadium, the better the club. If more people came to games and therefore by implication put more money into the coffers we would have been doing better over the last few years.
I saw somewhere on here that one person actually stated that he didn't go to Sixfields as he didn't like the place. It may not be the best ground in the world but its what we have for the finances. The only way to get things changed is to keep filling the place to give the club the finances to change it.
Incidentally I hope that person has a word with KT as he wants to hear from fans about the matchday experience and if its that bad to keep him away then I am sure he wants to hear about it.
So you want more people to go to matches and you think that calling them insulting names when they do will encourage them, seems a great plan!

Not afraid to say I'm a 'glory hunter' going by some comments. I haven't been since Wembley due to normal life getting in the way. I think the trips to Scarborough, York, Chester, Mansfield, Littlehampton, Crawley (when still non league) etc. when I was young free and single gives me the right to go to a game if I see fit. If others don't like it tough s***, I'm still going!

I'm born and bred in MK (I know ) and I think you would be surprised how many 'casual' Cobblers fans there are in Milton Keynes that over the years have been to a few games and would come out for a game like this where little time and effort (and cash) is needed. I reckon we won't be far off the 6000 mark.

Born and bred in MK, been a Cobbler supporter since my Dad took me to my 1st game in 1976 with my Uncle and cousin. Unfortunately I hardly get to any games now as my lads play football Saturday and Sunday so I am an online supporter and use text message updates, here and Twitter to keep in touch and up to date.
