CAN WE ACHIEVE 500?

Can we achieve a gate of 500 for Tuesday evenings game V Stocksbridge? I doubt that they will bring very many as they arn’t doing very well in the league and its a long journey on a Tuesday night. So, its up to us all to bring along a friend or two or three or more! and also be evangelical (if thats the right word?) . Can we convert some Vics followers to change their colours? We’re playing well and its good and exciting to watch so lets all do our part once again and get the gate the side deserves. SBL

I agree. this team deserves the support so come on people bring a friend!

A Tuesday night game v Stocksbridge with Champions League footy on the tele… I would snap your hand off for 400!

We get get 350 i will be happy.

If we can get past Kendal next weekend, and keep picking up league points, then 500 might be more likely a few weeks down the line.

I will never understand the people who are “hooked” on watching two bunches of mainly foreigners playing each other for the umpteenth time. Barely 30% of the players starting a premier league game are English and the same teams qualify for the competition every year. The “English Premier League” may be the best in the world but it does nothing for our England team which as usual is under-performing because half the squad are not even sure of a game with their clubs. Much better to watch a local team full of keen young lads, mostly if not all English, but hey, what do I know, I prefer Cricket and Rugby Union and they aren’t much better! Gate on Tuesday? I think we are unlikely to top 350 in fact 300 may be pushing it. But if we keep winning and playing good stuff who knows?
WHS.

I agree 300 is realistic, we deserve more but lots of floating voters have other things on to interest them if we were top 4 then yes 500 possibly but we are not so nearer 300 for me, having said that it has been good to see lots of new and old faces back at WP this season and a genuine buzz around the place a good win would do wonders for the support. :slight_smile:

I echo what other people have said.

It’s brilliant that we can think of a 500 gate BUT I feel it’s a bit unrealistic for a midweek game against a team that will bring 10 or 15 max. As Robbo says, a cup run will be key in us maintaining and improving on our impressive gates so far.

We’re currently running at a very healthy average of 770! :clap

Those of no fixed abode are currently averaging 99… mooney

Mildly amusing! :laugh:

Been trying to get a junior team down but with it being a night match during the school term it’s been difficult. If anyone knows of a team who’d be interested in coming down tomorrow give me a shout. Bit late notice i appreciate but we can sort it :slight_smile:
