We picked up a fair number of new supporters and saw a return of those who'd given up during the Hardy era and some of those have stuck. If we hadn't had the brief Hardy/Nolan success we'd almost certainly be below 5k by now as it was dipping below that figure under Trew.
It isn’t misleading, it’s fact. Is it fair to say though, the reduction is mainly due to significantly less away support as opposed to a reflection of decreasing home support?
