Best Of

Also, I'm sure it's already been said, but I thought we were bloody brilliant last night and 2-0 flattered them. Leahy has come in for a lot of stick but was superb, as were the whole midfield.

Unusual (to say the least) that Mansfield chose to start a player tonight who just got convicted of causing death by dangerous driving of a cyclist in an accident 3 years ago.

You wouldn't really want away fans having to go past home ends to get into the ground.

I know the club have given away fans a few blocks of the family stand and Frank Adams before, but that's not ideal either.

I can remember when they let Stoke and Millwall fans into the family stand (though not certain it was a family stand billing then), but that was a horrible experiment and quickly binned off

Ultimately our low midweek crowds are down to two principal factors:

1) Anyone in the UK can watch these games online - either via Sky now, or WanderersTV in recent seasons.

2) Our ticket pricing is not attractive to casual fans. It's £29 minimum for the Frank Adams upper tier, even the terrace is £22. Compare that with watching on TV which many fans can do via their existing subscription or a £15 day pass - it's a huge saving vs attending in person.

There are many things the club could do to incentivise fans along for midweek matches if they wanted to - the fact they don't makes me assume they're not that bothered with our midweek crowds, and the Sky money this season (and WanderersTV in the past has plugged the gap from any lost ticket sales).

Wolves

The away 'end' is down one side and I'm sure it kicked off at a game a little while ago

We have had a ridiculous number of Tuesday night home games this season. All have been scheduled for mid-winter in the cold. I think we’ve had more Tuesday night home games than all other clubs.

I am the most passionate of fans but even I struggle to get myself up for Tuesday night matches after a long day at work. Especially with games televised.

Think we have had a disproportionate number of home Saturday games called off due to internationals which needs to be looked at.

In short, blame the schedulers not the fans!

Isn't the point that Wrexham's goal should have been disallowed? Ours was a fluke, but it wasn't a foul.

Udoh was really good last night wasn't he? Seems like Kone's return freed him up to play his preferred game and injected some life into Fred as well.

If those three can stay fit and firing we won't be too far away.

What a great signing Chris has been for Bolton. Brilliant on his day but made of chipped glass.

Removing iFollow has taken away a barrier that would've made people more likely to go. I don't live that close to Wycombe and have Sky. In previous seasons, I'd have considered the 10er for iFollow and thought 'I'm already spending money, so may aswell go out of my way to get to the ground'.

Now, it's much easier for me to watch at home mid-week, and there's not even a mini-discussion I need to have over whether I should go or not, as I've already paid for Sky.

If a number of fans are making that same decision, as getting to AP after work is a bit tricky, they'll probably stay at home. That's a large factor in the low attendance.
