Eastside_Aggro Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 Seems After last Season we have lost about 50 odd Fans, Just wondering who has stopped going, Looking on our Clubs Homepage we are averaging about 270 for Home league Games, Last Season it was about 320, Don't know if that's about right or not?

Eastside Urchin Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 At this time last season we was averaging around the same,it was only so high because of the billericay game in april,saying that,there are a few people who don't seem to be at the home games as much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hornchurch "O" Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 Even less at away games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cup of tea Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 Can we add the playoff figures in? That will push the average up last season by 70-80 people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eastside Urchin Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 the awat games arent really a concern to us,or they shouldn't be. Its clear that there is too much travelling for this level of football. 8-9 games per season where you have to travel over 100 miles is ridiculous for a team based in london at this level. If you are chelmsford i think that increases to around 10-11. Even the closer games are 80-90 miles away,not easy to get to the majority of them. I will be going welling and thats pretty much it for me,would usually do Chelmsford but i am working that day,and the quiet months workwise,saturdays are my bread and butter. If i am lucky i will do another 3 away games this season. Dorchester i am going as its my birthday weekend so am combining it with a few days birding,bosh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paokman Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 My mate John doesn't come very often these days ( no innuendoes please) and it was he who introduced me to the Bridge. Will never forgive him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miss.A.F.C.Hornchurch Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 i cant do every away game now that we are in the Conference South as its too much money. Espcially this month as we have Christmas. Im saving for Eastbourne and Dorchester (stay in Weymouth) away as i want to make weekends of them. They are good places to stay. Plus good pubs in both the towns!! Away games for me now have to be picked. Dover is next, which im not sure on, because they are not the nicest bunch. So im probably looking at Welling and Havant as the next away days that i do. But then that could change...?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cup of tea Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 The away support was always going to be affected by the extra traveling involved despite the effort on the supporters association and the club to keep the coach prices relatively cheap. I would have hoped that the home support would have gone up being in a league above but it looks like it's stayed fairly static. I don't think we're the only club that's been affected - times are tough. As I've said before, just having a club to support after the mess it was in is an achievement in itself. I'm not going to complain about belng promoted, I'm glad it's happened. I've gone to a load of new grounds this season (Salisbury, Weston, Bath etc) that I otherwise wouldn't have gone to. I do miss going to places like Margate and Hastings, but there's some places I don't miss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
