well sticking to sundays arent improving the gate are they... and from the friday night attendances they are getting much worse if at all and opens things up to potential new support. seems to have worked for the so called bigger clubs who have switched and have a younger demographic of support maybe off the back of it where we lack

anyway sundays it is for now... not that there is many nowadays

but the bigger clubs have always had that support base available to tap into, we haven't
the bigger clubs have had years of success over a 20 year period, we haven't
the big clubs' support is passed down through generations, ours isn't

friday night haven't helped the big clubs get bigger gates than us, them being being clubs has.

i can't see how friday nights would improve the crowds, unless we completely ignore the family aspect of our support and go all out to attract the rowdy 18-30's age group, which, we should have done years ago, especially with the tie in with the uni.

the point is that sticking to sundays hasnt improved our crowds.

and changing to fridays may improve them despite the scare mongering by some that moving will drop crowds

can open up new avenues for us as a club, corporate aswell will be more interested
