We haven't got any attractive away games coming up for people to save money for? 18-19,000 I would have said standard but 16,000 is shit I have to say not Im going to defend that.
Football just isn't as big as a lot ofor people think it is in South Wales full of glory hunters and day trippers.

The rugby will always have a big effect, some go to the games and most just like the idea of a piss up on rugby days. I know season ticket holders who went to the rugby.
I'm pretty sure that's always been the case over the years so nothing new. If we keep up the form coming into Christmas people will want half season tickets. That's the way to improve attendances.

It is sad to see poor support when the team is doing well but if some fans don’t want to go there’s not much that an be done.

I don't know what the answer is, I can only speak on what I here from my mates and those I know and to be honest the truth his for most the buzz has gone AND people find it boring.
Personally, I'v got to be honest I do find it hard down there at times, its like a morgue.
