I certainly wouldn't make a personal judgement call because everyone's circumstances are different and subject to change BUT here's a thought as a town do you think that we have backed this team enough?
I get that play off games are extra and some might be being 'careful' as they hopefully come thick and fast and in threes, but would have expected another 1,500 on Friday's gate v Saints with a hope that we saw 'Sold Out' at the HJ.
Not having a go at anyone, just wondering if we as a club should be concerned? I think we had better turn outs under Smith, although the stats will probably prove me wrong, (I seem to remember a near sell out v Saints when Carvell went the length of the field), where and why have those fans gone?
Is it the game, cost of living, TV which I think was high ratings considering other viewing or something else?
Can it be fixed as I'm sure that Sam and the staff value the support and whilst the atmosphere couldn't be faulted empty seats isn't a good look.
That carvell game was 15 years and a lower capacity ago.
Also fans hadn't got sick of repeat fixtures, and the game being well, any of the excuses used by fans today that don't go.
