What a shame we aren't getting more people through the door. Moments like that last 10 mins are surely what we all go football for, and memories that stay a lifetime.
Covered End Upper was absolutely rocking near the end. Such a shame we look out over a very sparse East, and then when you watch the goals see how equally empty the North Lower is.
I was walking past the Covered End at 14.45 and there were hundreds of people still trying to get in to the ground/buy tickets. The queues were worse at the main ticket office and the turnstiles for the West Stand towards the Covered End.
The second paragraph on page 13 of yesterdays programme reads "the club were also pleased that supporters were able to enter the ground quickly and easily, with no difficulties reported".
I don't know what went wrong yesterday then............................
Could it be that they are counting the true number there, instead of assuming all season ticket holders are present?
We use a hospitality lounge and prior to yesterday have never been asked to show our season tickets. Yesterday all our tickets were scanned on entry to the West Stand reception.

Never anything like 14,844 in there yesterday, so I doubt it.
I would hope by the Rotherham game, with cheaper tickets, people back from holiday and hopefully the team still unbeaten we will see a return to 15-16,000 home fans. The team certainly deserve better numbers than yesterday, I haven't seen the North Upper as empty for a Saturday home game.
