Of course as we now know, us Teds made up the majority of the crowd that day ... Hmm you are right - maybe the website I sourced the info from doesn't include every year? Either way I think the point i am making is still 100% valid - To aggregate 50K attendance over the next 5 home games they are going to need at least three and most likely four attendances over 10K. Given the rarity of them getting that many at the swamp I think they have less than zero chance of achieving that. As Loon plage said - fantasists! I expect they may get something like 43k over the five games. Kind of the figure we get for two games 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’re a bigger club than them they just have someone willing to spendp The "bigger than Bournemouth" crap again... The graph here is from a post I made in this thread where they claimed they were bigger than Swansea, Huddersfield and Bournemouth. For reference the gas attendance line is yellow and black, since I am aware they once had an away kit those colours. With Regard to Bournemouth - They were historically a similar size and there was little to choose between the clubs (similar attendances etc). Some seasons the gas had higher attendances, sometimes the cherries did. However since 2014 Bournemouth have left them wael and truly behind. I know they may argue with investment they could be as big as Bournemouth again but that would need an implosion at Bournemouth or the Gas to invest, get promoted twice and for their fans to actually turn up. None of these things are looking paritcularly likely at the moment are they? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wendyredredrobin Posted March 15, 2019 Report Share Posted March 15, 2019 (edited) So Wael's revealing interview has revealed nothing again, yet the Sags still seem to think he has something to offer them. Just more secret non-existent plans. Will they ever learn Non league set up with a non league owner. They may just stay up this season, though my money is still on them being relegated to div 4 again. Still they have their training ground in La La Land I suppose and they were badly let down by the UWE project because the watertight contract debacle was someone elses fault just like Matty Taylors release clause Edited March 15, 2019 by wendyredredrobin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddie Hitler Posted March 15, 2019 Report Share Posted March 15, 2019 Is "concrete" today's special word? Or is Wael giving us an insight into what Dwane Developments or Wiztek have planned for the ground so the word is muchly on his mind. Quote "As of yet, there's nobody like that. There has been people, there have been talks, but again, there's nothing concrete." "Nothing concrete happened after that, so, again, lots of people come in and talk. "All you can do is listen and you talk but, as for anything being concrete, nothing has been concrete."

Rich Posted March 15, 2019 Report Share Posted March 15, 2019 Can someone explain why the non development of the training ground is somehow linked to the non development of the new stadium? If you wanted to progress as a club, regardless of the whereabouts of the pie in the sky new stadium, which according to Wael is not linked, why would you not start by improving your playing side by providing better facilities to help develop the playing side, especially as you already own the land? Probably because they have other plans for that land, along with the rugby ground. Sorry but, the BBC have once more given this person an easy ride, instead of pressing him for definite answers, shows how cosy BRFC are with the local media. Could you imagine the time a representative of BCFC would have, if he/she were giving out so much bullshit. Having said that, long may it continue with the ever diminishing threat from the dark side of town plainly obvious for all to see, apart from the deluded blue few.
