The Grockle
Formally Croydon Seagull
With selling out the full 15,500 season tickets and executive seats looking more and more likely, it has to be said it's an incredible effort from the club and fans in insuring a near full house at every home game next season.
Obviously our style of play and change in fortunes on the pitch has played a massive part in this revolution but I can't help but feel a large part of the interest has been stired by the fact the Amex is a top class facility, a cut above most of it's counterparts.
My question is, had we gone down the Colchester or Shrewsbury route and built a functional but un-inspiring ground with a reltively un-ambitious capacity, do you think there would have been the same amount of interest?
