We need them to stay in the premiership, so the fans who have come over to Notts they can't get tickets stay with us
Not many. Not fans who go regularly to Florest but know at least two fans (who pretty much never went to Florest when they were ****) whose sons want to go now florest are in the prem. who have been coming to Notts.
I do think the foot ball we play has attracted a wider audience. I know a city fan and an Arsenal fan who both take their sons to Notts regularly.
I guess this is part of the new breed of fan who want to watch good live football.
Does anyone really think these fans are purely supporters of football with no attachments to any club? That they only go to Notts matches because they can't get into Forest ones?
Whether or not Forest get relegated there are massive price increases forecast for next season, those forty-odd new signings will still need paying. Forest won't be able to drop entrance fees to Championship standards so Notts prices will still be attractve to these new fans.
My mate has just posted that to renew his seat he will have to fork out an extra £150.00 on last year's price for a season ticket!
I reckon that explains why the atmosphere is generally quite flat at ML. A lot of folk don’t join in because they are there for the game rather than the team.
Take out several hundred Kop singers and you generally don’t get an electric atmosphere that you’d hope 10k home support would give.
They also do a good, silver and bronze membership for tickets as well.
I know someone who has the gold which.guarantees you home tickets but it’s seems like a con to me so you have to pay for this membership I dunno the cost maybe £60-80?
It isn’t just them that is PL football for you as some idiot from PL called it they want to get rid of legacy fans in other words the loyal ones and newbies come in and buy shirts scarfs and merchandise etc disgusting really but that is what it is now.
I think the Prem’s been generally very good for football over the last 30 years. Man City are sucking the life out of it though with their continuing domination, especially when it appears the rules don’t appear to apply to them.
That and ridiculous ticket prices probably go some way to explaining the boom in EFL attendances. Long may it continue.
