Where are the missing fans ?

[JRSLEFTPEG]

When I started watching Queens in the 1970's it was the price of a couple of pints to get in ....... the pubs shut between 2.30pm and 5pm ...... we played all the teams in our league twice each season ....live football was on the tv about twice a season .... you could take a huge carryout into games ..... local players played with the club their entire career ....

....... can we re-invent the wheel?

All true Stravaigar but the crowds hardly ever went above a 2,000 average in the 70s. For example , I remember the average attendance in 76-7 and 77-8 was around 1700 odd . This was a team featuring many favs like Dickson , O'Hara etc. What was the excuse then for not attending ? There wasn't as much weekend working and full range of hobbies available nowadays . The highest average attendance since 1963 was 2,750 in 09/10, the season after the cup final. I remembered we took 1,000 fans to Somerset in 2009 as we briefly went top of the league. Amazing to think of now a decade on.
