If my calculations are correct, by ignoring the Trophy games, our average attendance for league games only is approaching 3840. If a list of the top 20 attendances for a single game in NLS was compiled, apart from Maidstone's home game against us 3028, we may well occupy the other 19 positions.

Toilets and food outlets behind the away terrace are hugely under utilised, but with most clubs in this league bringing less than 50 supporters and the majority of bristows bench being on the wrong side of a pension I do not see any issues or potential flashpoints that would come by the intergration for both sets of supporters of these facilities.By the time that a bristows resident considered violence towards an away supporter and had first removed their false teeth and glasses for safe keeping they would have forgot what the issue was in the first place.
Crowds are back to stay at plainmoor to stay, even on the most miserable, freezing tuesday nights when people can stream the match for half the admission of plainmoor supoorters are still choosing the live event in huge numbers,we now need the facilities to match.
