Yes they did seem to bring quite a few this time around and plonked themselves in the stand opposite the half way line ( very sensible). This kind of split what LB fans there were and left the guy who leads the chants a bit more on his own than usual. He gave it a good go though.

Quote: jbuzza "Not many in the West Stand. When will the club realise that putting all their (admittedly very limited) efforts into flogging lounge tickets is a waste of time.'"

Never.
It was the raison d'etre for the move to Wimbledon. We moved because we got little if any money from corporates. Now it seems that the focus is on making sure the owner and his Son are surrounded by sycophants and "Uber fans" willing to pay a up to grand a year on corporates and unsponsored player shirt auctions at the seasons end, whilst ignoring the 9,000 empty blue and yellow seats at 10 games with maybe another few games at 5th tier football or 4th tier Rugby grounds.
The list of excuses for failure to improve ANYTHING at the club since 2007 is long and ongoing, but the reality is it can be summed up in two words.
DAVID HUGHES!

did they ever announce crowd numbers as it looks less than 500 looking at the Vid.

Sadly I can't go to the game on Sat, my dad has managed to fall and get himself in hospital so thats put going to rosslyn park out. Would have been the first game I've been able to get to this season.

not going to see them lose by 50 to fev, so looks like it might be August now before I can get to see them

Maybe the club should move the away fans to one end of the West stand, or put them behind the posts?
That way the home support wouldn't get split and any sort of chanting etc... would be louder.

Must admit I've tended to sit a block or two from the middle ( I've only been a couple of times this season) - I sort of assumed that ST holders would be sat in the middle block.

As far as I'm aware seating is free for all this season even for ST. I guess this cuts down on the amount of stewarding required which last season seemed to be significant numbers.

Been watching one of my mate's video diaries of the on the road games in Carcasonne & Perpignan. Wouldn't surprise me if we took almost as many to those games as we have turning up at PL now.

All things being equal I shall go on Saturday. Is it the first game with a crowd that Broncos have played there? Best wishes to Crashmom and his Dad

Women's team played games at Rosslyn Park last season. I don't suppose the Men's game on Sunday will have that much of a different crowd to matches played there during lockdown.

icon_hug.gif Thanks for the well wishes for my dad its really appreciated icon_hug.gif

Its a shame as we was actually looking forward to seeing them play (would have been first game this season). Am away for the game early May, and not going to the Fev game...

Looks like July 30th will be first game as its too far to get to ebbsfleet, so those games are out

Hadn’t thought about it but yes the amount of stewards has reduced from one every five yards to basically none. Good to see a reduction in the waste of money. It is a free for all but basically the allocation of seats to ST holders was a farce as there were so many empty seats so again that is a sensible step. Less so letting the away fans sit in the middle of the home fans. They should have their own area, no need for them to be stuck in a corner - plenty of space but they should have their own area. Sooner or later this approach will cause problems.

Yup,I’m going too. I’ll have to set off in about half an hour but I’m going. Any concession stand/tea hut at the ground does anyone know?

There's a bar that also does hot drinks. And a vending machine IIRC.

Crikey. London setting the standards.

I’ve said time and time again we need to have nothing to do with lower tier Union grounds. Although it may be expensive we should move into a top draw football ground. In fairness what could go wrong with that plan.
