Can't see more than 2000. :(

We would get most of our regulars (c. 1200), as well as our floaters (c.500) and a few glory hunting ex-fans (now supporting K*ttering/MK Dons etc. - c. 250).

Which mythical trip to Wembley do you want figures for? :twisted:

You could have 140 years of no achievement, or twenty years of glorious victories, you decide.

There were 24368 there overall, I'm going by eye here to say I think we had just under half that? But I cannot remember for sure.

The same way the Wobbs took 40,000 to Wembley about 13-14 years ago. ;)

I am fairly certain we took 6500 (give or take 100) to Millenium Stadium which was hurrendous. I actually think we would take more to Wembley, about 10,000. It's a lot closer, only about 4000 of which would actually be Diamonds fans.
They say we've lost our money we're not famous anymore.....
