so guys if you look into the times when we had these really low attendances ,what was different from the times when we had the larger attendances ,the answers are there ,for me from the end of the 80s when we got relegated to mid 90s queens stagnated in the old second division ,looked like there was no ambition atol there ,and you had statements in the press i remember with chairmen coming out with at least we are in the black lol ,how off putting was hearing that when you watch your team struggle in the lower leagues ,what was the point in being in the black if you are doing jack sht ,now can anyone see why crowds have started dropping nowadays ,for me its because we went through a period where we were winning the odd trophy and getting far in the big cups then slowly fading away into struggling to keep it going and stagnating ,thats the reason the crowds have dwindled away ,the dumfries public got a glimps of queens showing great ambition from 2007 till 2012 say then its slowly drifted away and the fans with it .
