There's a lot of this sentiment on here, but maybe they just don't feel the need to pop onto the gasroom and let us know whether they're concerned about attendances or not, or what they're planning if they are.
Planning ahead, I’ve realised that I’ll be able to attend 13 home games at a push this season. And that’s before Sky do their next batch of fiddling + more ridiculous international break cancellations.
I travel 130 miles each way so that tends to rule out the ever growing clutch of midweek games and Friday night ‘treats’ from Sky.
Then there are always one or two games that clash with something else.
I’ve realised today that almost £39 a match is just daft so my subscription will sadly be given the thirty days notice. I do hope that the club look at this new landscape and come up with some smarter, and perhaps cheaper, ticket options next year. The rows of empty seats suggest that they ought to.
It is a fact that, for now, it is the diehard fans / ST holders who are in attendance every week. But a premier league team at home on a Tues night attracts a near sell out. The quality of opponent must be a factor. No disrespect to Crawley and Co.
if at the end of April we are pushing for the playoffs or higher!! The crowds will be building again home and away. Who can forget the great run to the playoffs a couple of seasons ago, Burton away was a great day out and MK home and away in the playoffs were two of the best nights in 50 years for me as a fan.
Stockport at home on the 3rd of May following Orient away could just be a couple more.
Quite depressing to see it like that as a full stadium always looks better but it doesn't really mean alot I guess..... id rather have our current stadium and fill it 50% with room to improve than have a 5k capacity and look good for the benefit of this graphic.
I assume the figures include season ticket holders whether or not they actually turn up. I can't see with supporters having holidays, sickness, family commitments etc Wrexham can get 99% every game.
Maybe, but if you're selling out each week and there is high demand people will actively be on standby, resell/ share unused season tickets and all that.
If I don't go I think of it as part donation, part the cost of having one, then spend another tenner to watch it at home. Mug.

You can certainly always tell on this forum when the on pitch stuff is going really well!
It’s been absolutely superb barring a couple of slightly below par halves.
Spotted on Twitter / X today. Second lowest % of capacity in the league at home so far this season.

That’s certainly quite sobering but, sadly, no great surprise.
Just think what a difference a fairly modest increase to 60% would make to the matchday atmosphere.
Has there been any discussion on here, perchance, about the factors which may be contributing to such disappointing attendances ? 😉
Not that I've seen @micra 🤣
Thought I’d chance my arm !
Our capacity is not 10000 plus.
It’s now around 9300 giving us 52%. I suspect our attendance figures will go up to the 5200-5300 mark by the end of the season. About 57%

It does sound extraordinarily but who’s counting.

Disappointed not to have been picked up on that dreadful typo.
No. We all noticed it old boy, but picking up on typos, spelling mistakes and grammatical errors is your domain.
We left it alone. A special treat to pick up on your own misdemeanour!
