So a new manager and 6 new players...and the crowd actually went down!
It's clear that the outside of the fan base has totally lost interest...the sooner this season ends the better!

Amazing travelling support though, given the weather down their way

Amen to that. Although we've only got the disappointment of the World Cup to look forward to after. At least we may win a few games next season.

That was Drilling Cobbler's idea of a joke. (I hope!)

I suspect only about 30% of that away crowd live in Devon/Cornwall. Same with teams like Carlisle, loads of fans in the South East and Midlands.

Apparently there were loads of Plymouth fans at the station , so they clearly hadn't come from Devon or Plymouth

Wasn't a joke! Just making the point that even with a new boss and some exciting new players making their debuts, the floating fan stayed at home and it was only the die bards who turned up as per... What it proves is that people will only turn up and see a winning team, regardless of other factors.

People might turn up for a winning team, why should a team bottom of the Football League expect more than 4,000 fans ? Get winning, you might get more, I doubt it really as we will still be down the bottom half at best. Sorry Drilling but expecting more people to turn up just to see a few new players is a bit optimistic.

The club has failed to sell itself yet again, they give a presser to the chron and that is the grand sum of the sales pitch. Adverts in local press, radio and other sources just doesn't exist under the current regime. Jack shiite decent promotional pushes that you see at other clubs. We're a town full of plastic man u, Liverpool chelsea spurs arsenal etc because we cant sell ourself. Succesful playing sides are always popular, but like nearly every other Cobblers fan on here might agree the Cobblers were shiite when we first stood on the terrace but was hooked by the sheer theatre of professional football that made us desperate to return every week, this is being denied to 1000s of kids due to the clubs lack of sales initiatives.

Could've been that the floaters had made other arrangements not expecting the match to be on?

Agree and will probably be less again for the mid-week match. Another win on Tuesday will probably see an increase in the home support significantly for next Saturday and the remainder of the season? Here's hoping...

This a drop you can ask questions about, unlike the drop of 30 or so the other week. Still a week to go until most people payday might be a reason?

WHAT PROBLEM?
The club is in the lowest position in the clubs history YET yesterday we had the highest number of home fans in League 2! Brilliant resilient support from Cobblers fans! Better than Walsall, Stevenage, Oldham, Colchester and Carlisle in League ONE.
Plus I'm confident it will improve in future weeks.
I suppose this message will be deleted after complaints from the Jonah's on the messageboard for being too positive!
Come on the Cobblers!

I wonder if crowds tend to have noticeable dips towards the end of the month and peaks at the start?
