How is standing capacity calculated though? If 2,000 were at Spencer's ground nobody would be able to see a thing!Trek wrote:Their ground capacity is 2000.ron manager wrote:Could we be looking at a 1000 fans for this one, either way, is their ground able to cope with the numbers?

Absolutely no idea, just quoting the figure I found on the Internet. I suppose they've allowed for fans shinning up a few trees.Bob's Bitch wrote: How is standing capacity calculated though? If 2,000 were at Spencer's ground nobody would be able to see a thing!

Can't see that attendance being beaten on Saturday.

So looking forward to this one, we could only dream of being in a position like this a year or 2 ago. Though it will be undoubtedly one of our toughest games of the season, none of our rivals at the top have managed to beat them at their place only Harrowby managed it and I expect plenty of nerves about, including on the pitch, we may be unbeaten in 20 or so games but I can't see that meaning anything for this one, they're going to have to put in a big performance imo. And I still think we might manage over 1000, like I said on the other thread, all sorts of people come out of the woodwork for these games. Very excited!

I did suggest the dodgy curry, and he scored that night against Witworths. Let's hope he recovers fully from the injury.TheIncognitoKid wrote:Somebody only put a joke the other week asking for me to give him a dodgy curry the night before.

For those, like me, that havn't visited Kingsthorpe Mill here are some photos of the ground taken last August by a Groundhopper.

2000 my arse, I just counted around 120 seats, I would suggest anything around a 1000 and there will be no spaces left around the pitch, the problem arises when people want to swap ends, so basically one end of the pitch is not always used.
