Not too bad when you consider how bad our crowds were from 1981 - 2001

Do you really think there were 25,000 there today? Admittedly I wasn't there but on TV there appeared to be many empty seats. As an aside, can I claim my £12 (NOW TV 24 hour pass) back from the club citing the trade description act?Quote:

I hate not being able to keep in touch with any City game - if I'm not there I'll listen to it or watch it if it is available. The love of the club is, and will always be there. I love my stats and banter etc on here. My boy is proud to be a City fan.
Take today. I reckon I've walked about 3 miles because of the lack of train service, spent about £60 on crap food and a couple of rounds, only to see a miserable, gutless performance and yet another defeat. I don't make midweek games as I don't fancy trying to cram myself onto the last train, stand for ages, then have a mile walk home at midnight. I could drive down but that defeats the purpose of meeting up with friends for a beer.
It's funny how it seems far less of an effort when we're doing well, winning and challenging at the right end of the table. When we've had seasons of utter shite at home it becomes much more of an effort to be inspired to go. I could easily have stayed home this morning and ultimately wish I had.
Full credit to everyone who went today. I totally understand why our crowds drop in this division when we're struggling. In fairness, our crowds are faring better than I'd expect.
I can't stay away from ccfc everQuote:

It's understandable after watching that rubbish today
It was a surprise how bad we were given the Rotherham result
And the season ends with a howler of a goal from 2 players brought in to play the passing game Morison wanted plus an own goal from a feckin set piece.
Got to question the coaching staff and what they do.
highlights are pushing it, Ojo's through ball was a killerQuote:
