I'm a season ticket holder so 'have' to go but I wouldn't recommend a friend coming along at the moment and suffering the fare on offer so no surprise with the low turnout today.

I think they need to seriously consider a reduced entry price for the Walsall game. We need the bodies in the ground desperately, and there is no chance after the last few home games that people will spend £24 on this.

How many full STH's do we have this season? How does that compare to previous seasons?

First time today I noticed fans being properly disgruntled.
I’m gruntled although I may become disgruntled if we are relegated.

I didn't realise QPR had such a bad away following, I've always assumed they were a well supported club.

Thanks for the interesting link - we seem to be holding our own amongst the great and the good.

I have no idea why they should lie but I cannot believe there were over 5000 there. Looked more like 4000. Do they count all season ticket holders as present? A big block near me in the West Stand was empty.

I certainly thought nearer 4000 than 5000.......the East Stand was barely filled, but strangely had Cobblers fans right down to the south end today.....some sort of promotion/giveaway?? Walsall brought less than 400 compared to 600 last season.......and yes there were big gaps in the West.

There appeared to be more in the North? And yes there was gaps in the West. Maybe they count ST as there even if not.

Maybe people will turn up again if they have some decent footballers to watch. Time for some bums on seats signings

There does seem to be a fractious relationship with the supporters amongst this squad . Jimmy did give praise of a kind at the end but also implied the fans are too quick to criticise and don’t get behind the team enough. Long also seemed to have a gripe and cupped his ears when he scored . I also read comments in the week implying it’s been quiet . The 5k there on Saturday are the loyal followers and it’s not wise to be too critical when the standard of football has been dire recently .

If it wasn't for the fact it's a supposed 'glamour' tie (really looking forward to some idiots singing "You're not famous anymore" to a side that clearly still do have a level of fame as you're singing that song to them) then I would have predicted a crowd alot closer to 4000 than 5. Saturday before Christmas, earlier kick off and the fact that's it's just such a mission trying to get across town sometimes wouldn't have helped

Long up until Sat has been bit of a disappointment only 5 goals so fat this season. Perhaps he reads the Hotel End and is aware of some criticism! Of course if we had wingers etc he might have got more , but its a bit of a mute moot point. As for the so called criticism of (some) the crowd for being too quick in moaning at players and not enough support - that really is a strange comment. On Saturday after the opening goal JFH turned to the 'Juniors' at the South End of the West and encouraged them to support. The reaction from the crowd was good and it certainly spurred on the team. JFH is right it almost takes a disaster to get us going, But we are all pretty quick with the moans and groans.

Blackburn on Satdee should see one of the larger home crowds of the season but with it being 'Christmas' Saturday, our poor form and the Saints also at home I'm thinking maybe 5,200 home fans and poss 1,300 away so 6,500 total. Not bad, but would have hoped to break the 7,000 barrier for this one ordinarily.

Its 'moot point' evers. And JFH's comment was not so strange. Why do think he turned to the crowd and got them to encouarage the team in the first place? Its because many were shouting abuse at Pierre and Cornell. When JFH signalled to the crowd, they then changed their tone and began supporting instead.
