At least 1500 your having a laugh, 687 was the gate taking from the east stand. |

I wasn't counting exactly but it certainly felt like 1500. We outsang and outcheered your lot no problem. It was a great game and a great afternoon. Thoroughly enjoyed it, thanks. |

I guessed at 800 midweek , and I don't think I was far off , but all irrelevant as far as the Wrexham club are concerned , if you could hold onto several hundred in the Championship , that would be great and a decent start to a new ' life ' as a lower tier club
I sincerely hope it happens

I'd be satisfied with that too, but I think we will be getting around a 1,000 possibly more. I reckon we take about 300ish to away games at the moment and I think the majority of them will continue to go to away games if there's a club.
We've got damn good supporters like that and they'll help out the club as much as they can, but will they stick to their word, that's another thing.
Obviously, I would never expect ones from South Wales to come, but with how truly great supporters they are, I'm sure they will. |

I make you right but I think any new club has to budget for smallish gates and make sure that even if it is sub 1,000 it still meets its bills and if the bigger interest is there it can raise its sights in what sort of player it can attract and help shape any future ambitions. |

I wish Widnes all the best in Super League and I know they'll do well in the next 3 years, but after some of the things that happened in the friendly earlier this year and the poor recpetion we had, I don't think I'll bother to go and watch any of their games. I know its not all their supporters and know we'd get a good reception, as it all really stemmed back to us getting a licence and now its a thing of the past, but it wasn't too pleasant watching that game with some of the things that happened.
If Crusaders fold, I'll be at Warrington, just like I do now, when Crusaders aren't playing.

Well, I think it was a little more than banter, but like I said, its a minority and I'm sure we'd get a good welcome. I know, I've seen some of the turds at Warrington. Although I go and watch them when Cru aren't playing now, what I don't like about them and you find it with all bigger clubs, is you have different groups of supporters, who hate each other and want to be better than another certain group.
At Crusaders it was great - friendly atmosphere, everyone got on, but crazy at times too.

I agree with you mate and a lot of it is jealousy.There has always been rivalry between Warrington and Widnes but some go too far and hate each other.Personally I see it as a game and is nice to win.I have a few friends who support Warrington so they are all not that bad.Just think some good fans at Widnes and hope to see you at Stobarts even if supporting Wire. |
