Some figures here for our "falling crowds"
We have looked at attendance figures for the last three years and crowds are up. Two seasons ago, after our first 17 matches, the average gate was 14,497.
"Last season, after a similar time, it was 16,140. This season, again after the first 17 matches, the average is 19,045.
"So we have built it up and that is important.
"Some people might say we are down on previous seasons, but when you have come down from the Premier League you do need a year or two to start cleaning things up. If you just retain everything as it was, nothing changes. Look at Sunderland.
"We had to make decisions, clean it up, get a good manager in Neil who would build things again. It takes time, but he has got good results very quickly."
