I've no doubt that had oakwell held 23k back in 1997/98 we'd have filled it such was the demand. The glory hunters came art in force that year then gradually disappeared after relegation back to the championship. Anyway, who gives a feck. This club, unlike our more illustrious big city neighbours doesn't have small d1ck syndrome where crowds are concerned. We have a good solid hard-core set of fans, always have had whether the stadiums aif full or aif empty. Leave it at that
