They must be one of the least supported clubs to get to the conference...I expect a few of the Elland Road exodus will go watch them next season rather than league one for £30. DL

Did anyone look at the "News in Brief" section of BBC (digital) teletext football last night? The opening page had two stories from, perhaps, different ends of the world of football: 1. AC Milan can win Seie A if they beat someone tonight 2. LL leaves St Albans

Originally Posted By: Laz I wonder who will be sponsering the shirts next season? These might have been appropriate sponsors for this season.... Any thoughs on ticket prices next year? I presume there will be at least a £1 reduction from not having the cameraman on top of the coca-cola stand...

The BBC seem to have got things right on this front. Crawley, Weymouth...Aldershot and Stevenage are next on that basis. DL

Originally Posted By: Laz I believe the correct plural is forums!

Yep.

Anyone else getting bored of flicking between the two Saints forums (fora?)? DL

With crowds averaging little over 1000, it's hard to see how we would be able to go full time without it being underwritten by some rich benefactor. What we've achieved so far on a limited budget with part time players ought to be applauded. That said, others in the division manage it somehow without significantly bigger crowds. Anyone aware of the relative profit/(loss) of other in the league other than the Muff and Crawley? DL
