I dont think I could take the pleasure..it would be so alien to actually enjoy more than 1 game a year.
Makes you think doesn't it. I wonder what the attendance would be for the so called "big clubs" if they had to put up with the dross we get.
Lets hope its the 27th mate Chelseas average attendance when they were **** was below 20k i beleive, man city's was half what they get now and i class city as a very well supported club, remember taking 15000 down main road to watch us get relegated (might be an exageration that mind might have been 10,000 but 15 is in my barnet for some reason)
We have an off the field panto in perpetual residency and we do canny well on attendances too given lack of silverware. Would you get the levels of support we see in the NE elsewhere under the same circumstances? I doubt it. Oh... and throw in the fact that our regional unemployment stats and average wages are some of the worst in the UK and things get magnified even more.
I wouldnt knock the nags support either, its quite incredible really, not a dish washed between us for 40 years and over the course of a week nigh on 100,000 fans will pass through our turnstiles
Your welcome, the reason i came accross it is because no club has ever lost 8 in a row b4 We are currently on 5
