A quote from Bruce Talbots' Off the record column in todays Arsegust.He is talking about our attendances and revenue that has been lost since We left the Goldstone.
"Would they have averaged 12,000 winning promotion from the second division last year?
Would they have reached that figure in their first season back in division one in 2002 when they lost 12 games in a row at one stage?
Even this season it is debatable whether the average crowd would be 12,000.The likes of West Ham and Leeds would have pulled in that many and probably a few more,but Plymouth or Cardiff on a tuesday night?Can't see it Myself.There haven't been to many sellouts this season in a stadium which holds less than 7,000."
Cheers Bruce,with friends like You who needs enemys?
