ghostofcecere Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Just noticed the attendance at Spotland last night was 1954. Now I know ours are nothing to write home about these days, but they are in the most successful spell in the clubs history! Truly shocking turn out that. I expect about 800 to come to BP in a few weeks based on that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

24hoursfromtulsehill Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 It's more like the 1930s, during the depression. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoyleArmy1994 Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 If anyone has had a bad day, turn to their forum for a right good laugh. Them 'lot' (emphasis on the lot given the fact there is so few of them) aren't half deluded. Not only don't they own their own ground or have an accountable training ground, do they forget where they have been the last 40-50 years? Makes for hilarious reading! They are a nothing club! Look forward to the 3 figure away following they bring to us in march. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
100milesaway Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Night matches are a disaster for lots of clubs. Lots of fans can't be bothered after a hard days work. Many more can't abide the travelling, which includes home and away fans. Accringtons home gate last week against the top of the league was 919. It makes you wonder how they survive on gates like that. I think that we will be lucky if Rochdale bring 500 . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4froale Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 (edited) They really do hold against us what happened back in November don't they. I'm not saying the crowd trouble was right but you'd think we had napalm bombed the town the way they go on.

I do take your general point about midweek attendances though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'd be too scared to leave their houses for a week if they think we are trouble makers haha Edited March 4, 2015 by ghostofcecere Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlossopLatic Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 You know I would quite like to get a rivalry going with Rochdale but I'm really struggling to dislike them. Rochdale are the most inoffensive club in the country and Oldham fans lording over them is like the short fat kid at school lording it over the disabled kid at school because he beat him in the egg and spoon race on school sports day. Forever in our shadow really! They are not city or United but not many clubs are. They don't have an obnoxious element of fans like Leeds or burnley. They don't have illusions of grandeur like a Huddersfield or Wigan hell even tranmere had enough scamps in their fan base for me to muster up a dislike and Ronnie Moore. I want to dislike them but I feel they need to be more successful than us for me to do that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaddymatt Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 I was there with 3 other non-dale fans so you can make that 1950. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
