    We know our fan base isn't enough to compete in the championship. Getting more difficult to as each season passes. In my time watching us only time we did have was when Tommy Doc was the manager remember being at a night game then at Millmoor was something like 17,000 there.

    You forget how cheap it was to watch football then, no sky subs, no expensive mobile phones, subscription this and that, you name it. Even beer was cheap.
    The demographic of Rotherham and the diverse things there is to spend money on, plus the cost of living for a large section of this town, means too many who could be extra fans see the std of football which is now stereotyped and stale, with little creativity like watching a battle of attrition in midfield. It simply isn’t attractive enough, except to the diehards, and that will deplete.

    You cannot get blood out of a stone.

    Fans ambition may not be matched by the club, because it is not at all cost. One post said we are not building something sustainable, of course we have. Financial.
    Climbing football status is another thing.
