A lot of fans need to have a long hard look at themselves, In my opinion a major reason that a lot do not go is the the terrible and nasty atmosphere generated by fans themselves at BP. People are saying we should encourage a younger generation to become regular supporters, I know someone who was a regular fan who does not go now because he does not like his young kids to listen to the swearing ,booing and nasty bile spouted by a decent minority of the crowd at BP.  Some there think we have divine right to win every week and the abuse  if we don`t is horrendous. A lot of these same fans moan that the manager doesn`t ever praise them
    
There is little coincidence that the team seem to play with more confidence away from home and that it is a much more enjoyable for fans, who go to support their team not wait for something to moan about. In fact I would go further and say moaning and getting at the team is frowned upon and discouraged by travelling fans who do not want the day ruined by the miserable

Any fan who pays money to see a football match is entitled to an opinion, booing is part and parcel of football wrong or right.

the reason the attendances are down is part due to the time of the year but imo more to do with the whole paul hurst package from his interviews to his lack of likeable personality , some are diehards and some are fickle.

I don't like him as a manager and its maybe partly my fault for being stubborn but I cant believe we are second in the table and I still cant take to him , attendances usually say a lot on how the fans feel and 800 down on Saturday shows they cant be arsed,  we then win on Tuesday and if we do on Saturday then my guess is the attendance will be over 3k for the next home game, its just how football is.

respect to the die hards who go no matter what but the manager does not inspire me one little bit and that is just my opinion and don't expect everyone to agree as football divides fans wrongly or rightly.

It's the ones that didn't attend I was interested in. Well done to the ones who were there.



If the football is bad you can always watch the gulls.
