If it was that easy to beg borrow or steal seats now I'm sure we'd have see them used last Monday.

For Christ sake, it's not YOUR money being lost, it's the clubs meaning it's Cardoza's and if he doesn't see the benefit of raising the capacity then that's up to him, it's his loss. As for your desire to see the ground over run by Pompey fans, well, it takes all sorts.

Didn't realise the council loan was actually his money.
All I have said is I would like more ambition in the stadium plans, I'm not suggesting we do a Darlington and have a ridiculously large stadium but a few hundred extra seats seems short sighted.
You're happy with what's happening, fair enough.
You're happy with going to the conference, and to use your words, it takes all sorts.

I'm not happy but I am realistic. Nobody has died, it's not the end of the world and I'll still be at Sixfields next season watching the Cobblers whichever league we're in.

Wasn't aware I was being unrealistic in hopes for the future regarding some ambition and hopefully some on the pitch progress.
We both have different hopes and aims and would do things differently if we had any say but that doesn't make either one of us right.

Second time in three years our highest gate of the season was against Oxford in a league game.

We also INCREASED our average gate on the season by 88.

21st or 6th, it doesn't matter when you're a Cobbler.  Smiley

I have to say that I think the total attendance is more accurate for comparison purposes because there is no way you can guarantee that all the supporters in "home" ends are actually "home" supporters. Plenty of away fans in the West Stand, plus day trippers, plus friends who you talk into coming for the odd game but can hardly be described as home fans.

 Huh?
Total attendances are dependent on the teams that we are playing and their away support which will vary from season to season!

I'm afraid Deepcut that if you look through the record books, Frank Grandes for example, there's no home attendances listed for you to compare to.

Away fans may differ to agree dependent on a bigger club being present in the division but I think a comparison between attendances in the same division are fair and relevant. Just my opinion of course.

I would also add that if you played the same opponent one year after another and the first time they were near the top chasing promotion and the next nearer the bottom, the amount traveling would differ substantially. Same as you play a distant club on a Tuesday night instead of a Saturday. Weather can also play a part, also rival entertainment being on offer. all these things would vary each season but the overall total is likely to remain pretty constant, at least that's what the figures would indicate.

Lat 5 seasons in league 2 (inc Cups)
2013/4 = 4,504
2012/3 = 4,416
2011/2 = 4,769
2010/1 = 4,514
2009/10 = 4,242

With the East stand out of action, I make it 4650 available home seats. Just 300 odd shy of capacity on Saturday.
