Not really what I see at the games. I sit in the main stand and while the demographic is definitely more of us old diehards than youngsters, I think the mix is a bit more varied than it was a few years ago. I even have to temper my language towards the officials because there are a few kids who sit around me, although their parents are also attracted to the odd expletive! Walking to and from the ground I see quite a few young fans, which has to be good for the future. There was a question asked at the fans forum, something along the lines of "if you had a million pounds to spend on a non-player budget, where would it go? They all wanted to spend it on better backroom facilities, but mine would have gone on cheaper tickets, especially aimed at attracting more youngsters.
