    So, my summary at the moment.
    Nixon is getting info from someon like Stretford to put out calming messages about the deal and support the CK bid going through.
    Dawes getting info from the Ashley camp trying to shake things up and put pressure on the timescales of the CK bid in an effort to gazump.
    Percy is possibly being fed by the Ashley camp, but is more likely getting info from the EFL being twitchy that the funds haven't cleared still. Correlates with what Big Trav was saying that Ashley has also been in contact with EFL but not Admins.
    As fans, we just need to realise that reacting to any of this will just make the situation seem more extreme. Until we have something official that isn't through a media mouthpiece we should allow the process to take its course. People going on twitter and directing messages to CK are certainly not helping, but hopefully it doesn't mean he loses confidence and derails the work that's gone in so far.

    Our landlady ran the shop on the corner. Later we moved to a bungalow in Quarndon which was next to where she lived . Then we all went our separate ways! We were young then!!!!

    Of course you could have just suggested this thread for any comments specifically on attendances next season instead of them getting lost in the admin thread. 
     
    Just sayin. ?

    Well I hope you are right , but being an optimist hammered by years of experience I have a tempered view of things. my logic is this:
    We have no team as such and when we do it will be lowish quality compared to what we are used to.
    League 1 football is pretty dire from what I've seen on TV and we will be at that level. Five games in; watching kick and hope will put off a lot of people. 
    Live footy is in a gentle decline thanks to TV. Even with Sunderland average in L1 is only 15k and without them the slight decline in live attendance overall will be more apparent. I don't think our core base of fanatics is that big.
    ST holders are not always hardcore supporters, they like the familiarity of the same seat and neighbours. Lose one or two and others will follow. 
    Consider: Man City v Spurs on the box or drag down to PP on a rainy winters day to see Forest Green Rovers (no disrespect). Quality v Hoofball!
    The facilities are irrelevant as we have them now. My only requirement is I can see and mainly dry.
    There may be a fair take up of ST depending on the price . But If it costs (say) £15 to get in, with no sell outs you will always be able to get a seat in your preferred stand. Why pay up front? Pick and choose. I think that is what a lot of folks will do. Seems to be that way at Burton. 
    Hence my AVERAGE of 15k over the season.

    A lot of our future will depend on attendances to generate income.  I tried to set up a poll to seek the general views but failed.  Maybe someone better than me can have  a go. 
    I think it will average or at around 15000.
