Cost of living crisis, money is tight massively Jekyll and Hyde team performances can see why the majority of more “Seasoned” fans now pick and choose their games as is their want.
Our club coach has struggled for numbers all season, some others more regarded than ours out there aren’t even running anymore. The current climate financially has had a drastic impact on people’s spending power and shouldn’t be dismissed, couple this with a team that was haphazardly inconsistent many of our members decided to not attend and I can totally understand. Now we’re not the oldest coach age wise but it’s hard to justify £50+ every other week when you’ve bills to pay, kids to feed and the team is gash.
It’s easier when your a bit younger and have more disposable to justify your attendance and I would say that yes some of the away games have been sparse but hopefully with a bit more action on the field more of the floating attendees will return and atmosphere improve.
Agree with this and for me the whole M62 Friday night nightmare puts me off.
I understand every game is on Sky next year. If so I’ll be even less keen to spend on tickets, petrol etc particularly in dodgy weather.
