Includes 1600 Coventry ones but still one hell of an effort in the circumstances. There is something worth saving here...hang in there FV!

Four tickets purchased :oyea:

Those that know him won't be surprised but Bijou Bob, on being informed he owes me £20 for his, has offered me 20% up front and the rest over 2 years :whack:

You do realise that he'll be putting himself into administration next week, right?

Why? There isn't any bugger going to buy him. Might as well just liquidate.

Nope, I thought our lowest attendance record for a league game (excluding cup matches) was 10,000+bits.
I thought our record ever lowest attendance was in some Checkatrade cup match against Everton reserves or somebugger at circa 1,300.
But I'm beginning to hallucinate, and anyway...

2,902 vs Darlington in the old 3rd Division, bonfire night 1985. I was there and if you listen to the number of people also claiming to have attended, the crowd would have been around the 40k mark.

Darlo had one of Middlesbrough's promising youngsters starring for them that night, I think it was Gary Pallister.There was a very low gate against Bournemouth towards the end of one season, probably 83/84 that might be our second lowest.Billy Rafferty scored for them.Despite the sparse crowd i managed to be seated next two Bournmemouth women who were Billy's biggest fans.C'mon Billy all match and then he scored

My memory doesn't stretch much beyond this April. I'm not some mutated trainspotter, writing down endless statistics. I was wrong.

(But I was at Orchestral Manoeuvres in The Dark's first gig. At the time they were called Hitlerz Underpants. And there were just a handful in the audience, but not as few as the three of us who witnessed the onstage electrocution of the lead singer with the Yellow Capris a week previously - yes TD, both gigs at Eric's :D )

Our lowest league crowd at the Reebok, according to the BN was in 2000. Just over 10,000 v QPR. Unlike the Darlington game, I wasn't at that one.

Spotty - I'm watching OMD in Berlin later on this year. I think it's as well they changed their name!

No. Don’t even think he’s a striker by trade.
