You can tell it’s pre season when all the pointless attendance arguments start, roll on actual football starting again.

Firthy, you are in no position to talk about anything that's poor attendance wise. if you want to talk averages, then lets ask why Bradford averaged 6.2% of their home averages on the road this season. Only Crawley did worse.

You have the worst fan base in the league and it's not even close. You cream over false home numbers that are heavily inflated by the fact your season tickets are the cheapest in the league. Put them up to league average prices and you'd be struggling to crack 10,000, like you've done for most of your history. That's awful for a town with a 550,000 population.

You have no right to talk smack about anyone's attendances, home or away.

I appreciate you highlighting my initial point. That being, clubs who average low numbers at home take no notice of away averages, instead they find the home to away ratio more relevant.

Because we have decent numbers at home, our 1,200 away average is considered shocking in comparison. Alright, fella!

Can you define “false support”. I assume you genuinely believe we have a few thousand hardcore supporters and the rest is just made up of…what… glory supporters?

If ST prices were full price (whatever that means), no one knows what we’d sell. Our prices are now £250-£380 and we still shift 14,000. As mentioned, we have more fans paying on the day at full price than what some clubs average overall. As for struggling to crack 10,000, I think you ought reconsider that point, ‘cos you couldn’t be more wrong.

Anyway, back on topic. Doncaster have shite away numbers …..continue

Some outstanding GK names, too.

Goalkeepers: Spike Brits (Manchester City), Douglass Lukjanciks (Everton), Oliver Whatmuff (Manchester City)

Spike Brits joined us as an under-9 and stayed for 10 years before City grabbed him last year. Big sell-on or appearance clause money coming to us at some point hopefully.

Let the attendance nerds enjoy their time in the sun. To me only Season Ticket sales are of any importance during this down time.

Just a jogger that our friend OAKROADER has initiated a 'Euros 2024 Competition'
But sadly only five entries. So c'mon guys there is no other football this summer and have a go.
Cheers
