It was our lowest attendance of the season. Yet we still smashed the next best attendance in the league and premier league grounds.

You guys sure hold us in high regard and expectations. That attendance was one of the highest ever in that division and we couldn't be arsed turning up <laugh>

26,610, if anyone's wondering. Higher than Burnley, Palace, Fulham and Watford.

In regards to your attendance....I believe that hotel accommodation was fully booked in most hotels due to other events going on in your area. It appears by the time your lads knew they were in the play-offs the accommodation had already been booked up. Personally I would have planned in advance and covered every eventuality, with a cancellation booking. The prices being charged were three times the amount of normal prices. Also 7.30pm on a Saturday is pretty poor timing, at the peak business time of a weekend, plus the match was covered on TV. I think a combination of all these events affected your attendance, also keep in mind the cost, ppl could be saving their money in case you make Wembley and that will not be a cheap day out - pockets are only so deep.

Why would hotels affect a home crowd? <confused>

Anyway the important thing is that they draw or win on Thursday.

But back to the point, many football fans don't live in the Town/City of the club they support...take you as example.

I know many of my own footballing friends live in the North, hence they need accommodation when they travel down. A lot of our away games are the home games to them. I've never understood this mentality that you must live in a certain place because you support a specific team. There may have been connections during childhood but life moves on as we become adults.
