Da Man Clay said:hmm, I dont think it has changed that much in the time since McGhee has left. If people were fed up at paying the 23 quid then they probably wouldn't have turned up at the start of the season (especially as MM was playing quite negative football).
I have no idea what the reason is for the poor attendances, Maybe people have got fed up with Knight choosing the cheap option?
Two things.
1. The Saturday park leagus generally kick off in early to mid September so you've got plenty of blokes with nothing to do on a Saturday afternoon who love football, stands to reason that a fair few will find their way to Withdean (I know I did).
2. Clubs generally see good attendances in the first few home games. As supporters we all indulge in a spot of blind faith over the summer. Remember 96/97 when a fair number of people thought we would be risiing high in Division Three?! Once you get into October and November and have remembered just why the season before was so disappointing, it can be quite tempting to spend your hard earned cash elsewhere.
