Only a few more weeks left
Only a few more weeks left
Just a few weeks left now of having no Saturday football while everyone else does have it!
I cannot wait for next season, I don't care what league we are on it's going to be brilliant just to see my team on a Saturday again, don't get me wrong I have absolutely loved Thursday night football so much so that I will follow the under 18's again next season.
In fact while most fans of other clubs will ONLY have Saturday football I'll have Saturday and midweek!!!
I am intrigued as to how many fans we will get on a Saturday, are there that many that will come back on a Saturday?

This season has gone surprisIngly quick considering the void on a Saturday afternoon, watching the u18's has been a great substitute though and I will definitely try and continue to go to the games next season.
I know of a few people that will be coming back on a Saturday. I might be a bit ambitious here but I reckon we can get 800 for out first home game next season.
Does anyone know when the decision is made by the FA regarding our league placing?

We don't know for certain, but it won't be for a while yet, I'm afraid.Diamond_ Wolf wrote:Does anyone know when the decision is made by the FA regarding our league placing?

I think 300-500 is a nearer estimate for the first season, of course it depends on our league placing, performance etc etcDiamond_ Wolf wrote:I know of a few people that will be coming back on a Saturday.

Re: Only a few more weeks left
I spoke to 3 gentlemen (even older than me ) who were all ex Diamonds supporters watching Wellingboro who said they will all be watching our senior side next season. Also spoke to one of the drum lads the other day who said him and his mates will be the Corby game and be with us next season, hopefully all these people will follow thro
Re: Only a few more weeks left
Given we have almost 450 members already and still rising, I would have thought that we'll also pick up a few more of the ex Diamonds supporters as per STAGMAN's comment above when Senior sat games begin.
Would think we'll get a good 400+ average attendance.

Re: Only a few more weeks left
I haven't been able to get to a game this season due to the mid-weekness of the fixtures so I can't wait to buy a season ticket and a 2012/13 membership.
IMO this season has gone incredibly slowly, I can't wait until it's over, it's been horrible, horrible, horrible. Even if I can't get to every Saturday game next season it'll be nice to follow a team that I actually want to win! I like that we're using already using Twitter for match updates, this will come in handy next season and it'll mean we can update Radio Northampton and get more exposure.
Re attendances: I think we'll average more than Corby next season.

At those ticket prices they are charging for next season @ NP + the CVA that's on it's way I'm sure we won't be to far behind then in attendances figures to be honest.
