For the last 2 home games we've had roughly 2k in addition to what Hardy was bringing in when Ardley was taking us out of the FL, Hardy in turn had added 3k to the support the Trews were left with.
So we have 5k people attending now who weren't doing so 8 years ago. A fair chunk of those will have come on board for the same reason every other club is seeing an increase. How many of that 5k can now be considered loyal supporters and added to the core figure of 4.5k? It's not something we ought to be putting to the test, it's a level of support we should be taking full advantage of.
