Remember watching us against them in the 70's, they had a winger by the name of Noel Brotherstone from memory, small tricky winger and just around the time I was able to start watching appreciate who the oppositions main threats were.
Was he the one that looked like Professor Pat Pending from Wacky Races?
Was a very respectable turn out from a depressed Blackburn FC. Felt sorry for their fans having to traipse all that way back after a spineless showing like that.
As a bell wever I thought we overcome too easily and now look for the next one, Derby on Tuesday?
Seems a lot of the home season tickets holders didn't bother today for one reason or another. Bell wever means not exciting enough I expect.
Here's a view of the family area during the first half, which was supposedly close to a sell out pre kick off (I checked and only 4 seats remainder in one of the blocks). Same near me in the west where I was able to choose a seat with ease.
Anyone know the home and away break down of the four home league games this season?
On the test we passed the bell weather.
Watford - 3,138 away, 18,640 home
Leicester - 3,139 away, 19,044 home
Millwall - 3,140 away, 20,153 home
Blackburn - 1,567 away, 17,437 home
I think that’s right but I have had a bee
Obviously Millwall is a derby, but a ~15% decline on the home attendance this weekend is disappointing.
That was a really good turnout yesterday. Some people are getting too carried away, not helped by this club policy of 20k attendances being shouted about
I think the Ryder Cup would have had an impact too.
Godden was supposed to be speaking in the lounge and was replaced by Jim Rodwell . I didn’t hear the reason why , I expect Godden thought an afternoon of golf watching would be better than The Valley

We had 17.5k home fans for unattractive opposition.
That is the improvement we've made.
Think back 10 months or so ago to the likes of Crawley at home. It is an unprecedented upturn
