What's gone wrong at Grantham Town in recent years? The Gingerbreads finished fourth in the division above (The Northern Premier League) six or so years ago and then made it to the play-off final.
Lack of ambition by the board. Management appointments that didn't work out. The recent change last week was prime example. Louis Bland saved the club from relegation last season, with a young inexperienced side. The start to this season wasn't enough to save his position.
So what was the attendance? Farsley have an average of just over a hundred this season which is dreadful for step 2 football and yesterday could be an all time record low for this league by the sounds of it.
It wasn't announced. The number will be tiny.
No reference to it on Football Webpages. No team line up shown neither. At Step 4 it's a league requirement to supply that information, also bookings and substitutions during the game.
I have asked. Silence so far...............
Nothing in "The Non-League Paper" either. Are we saying that potentially it might have been under three figures?
No. I think c.200. most from darlo
Are the large number of spectators who paid their hard-earned admission fee also "coined up" ?
they are full time in the glue leagues and signing players from higher divisions. That doesn't come from the gate money.
My comment in my posting only concerned the numbers of supporters who attended the match. Nothing more, nothing less.
they get a good home crowd but then they are hissing the league so people get involved. It is easy when you are winning every week. They weren't there then when Macc were bottom of the league!
Add Salford to the list as well. No fairytale story to be seen there.
Always worth noting that despite the hype and the coin it was fantastic owned Darlington that beat them to one of the glue league titles.
odd that - didn't mention them losing the title either.
Isn't the link below them?
