Not heard this one,and find it a tad optimistic.Rovers have done well in recent years building up the following from what it was.However I think it has just about topped out.Even in the Glory years 70's 80's they only avaraged around the 8000 mark,and last season even with the success they achieved they failed to sell the ground out.Remember to achieve a 14000 avarage you will have to be getting 14000 fans every game and to make up for the attendances against the lesser supported sides.This figure would have to be grately increased.
Unless they extend the ground again,this is not only unlikely,it would not be possible.

“It’s like an alarm clock’s gone off, and I’ve just got to get away. I think it was John Lennon who said: “Life is what happens when you’re making other plans.”, and that’s how I feel. Although he also said: “I am the Walrus I am the eggman” so I don’t know what to believe.” [color=#40BF00:24tu876y]Unisex Green Jumpers are cool[/color:24tu876y] [color=#FF0000:24tu876y]I've thrown a kettle over a pub, what have you done?[/color:24tu876y]:34224.gif



Quote: reddan "Should we? The clubs you mention have fairly small home gates anyway.

Maybe there should be a licence point for offering good facilities to away fans, such as covered seating and realistic prices. I don't think we should get a tick for good travelling support when we offer little or no incentive to encourage other club's fans to come to us.'"


Do they offer us the incentive to travel to them though? Bradford, Wakefield and Leeds offer the away fans anymore than we do?

Well supported teams fans will travel where they need to in order to support their team, blaming the stadium for not going to a game is a PATHETIC excuse IMO. Would you not go and watch East Hull v West Hull at Rosemead because you didn’t want to get your shoes muddy on the touchline or because you couldn’t get a decent cuppa at half time?

Each to their own really. Some fans will come whatever, others will prefer not to get rained on etc. Even plenty of our own potential fanbase stay away because they can't get in the decent stands. The hardcore 2/3k of every club would support their side wherever they play, but to attract more fans you need a mixture of success on the pitch and half decent facilities.
