" Would the club inflate the attendance ? "

It is expected that tonight's attendance against Colchester will be the lowest attended first team game at the CCS.

Do you think that the 'attendance' announced will be 'ever so slightly' higher than our previous lowest, which was against Dagenham and Redbridge in 2009, of 5,545 ?

There has been publicity this week about the potentially lowest ever crowd so could the club 'inflate' the attendance to avoid negativity ?

Obviously there are implications like tax payments and gate receipts split but if another 1,500 kids 'attended' would that be better for the club to avoid negative reporting ?

Why alter the figures , I thought the aim of not renewing ST's was to show Tan how much his ownership is affecting the club and ultimately his investment in it.The lowest gate gate ever could go some way towards assisting the protest

Doesn't matter what the club announce tonight it'll be denounced as inflated by some posters on the forum.

Some opinions are that the Club won't care about people not turning up so why would they inflate?
