I agree record attempt is a great idea to up interest, the problems for me with this are it is a week day (Thursday) not a weekend day, it is a work and school day & time 11am IIRC so I will be amazed if they succeed or get close to the target of 4,000. Not their fault first game picked for Thursday TV but would it have been better to wait until Sunday or Saturday match to do it? Although they could be targeting the number of unemployed or students that could be free on a Thursday morning who they feel may not go the game that night, this way they give out some free tickets in the hope to boost the crowd number on the night. How kids are going to get out of school to attend will be interesting, the wagging officer if there is such a thing should be down there to see if he / she can pick up some fines!!

Hope they get the record and people who do go do then attend the match later that night.

IIRC Sky money went up for this year plus of course we have released players.

Hopefully the majority who have not renewed will continue their support and attend games.One reason for the drop is games being played Thursday Friday and Sunday.People can't plan ahead.

This could be the reason guess we will never know, likewise it could be the reason an extra 500+ have bought SH because we have switched to mainly Sunday matches (Sky pick aside). Let hope we can do as well if not better than last season, Final and top 4/6 maybe (lots of fingers crossed for this one!) and our average over the full season can edge to or break the 6,500 barrier. I feel it need to if we are continue our year on year improvement as the extra money helps to retain players both experienced and youth and also can aid in signing the better quality players to improve the squad as people leave or are released.

Bring on Thursday COYV.

Just seems unlikely that hundreds of people can go from season ticket holders one year to not interested at all the next,all at the same time.A couple of dozen maybe. There must be a common denominator and no regular match day is it I reckon.That goes for all clubs of course.

Well I have had a family tickets for the past 3 yrs but because of the change in format of the SH, the big increase in price for me and 2 kids tickets (family ticket) added to the fact the kids don't want to go every week I chose to just get Adult ticket this year for me and will take kids a couple of times should they want to go. Will this from the clubs perspective but noted as two lost SH'ers? But I have never been contacted and asked why not a family ticket anymore.

I also know of 3 people who are not renewing this year from last year for different reasons, not sure can make matches every round, another gets free tickets so no need to buy a SH.

I too questioned the number being in the hundreds, it does seem a lot from one season to the next.
