Big away followings are nice to have, but lets face it, financially it is better for CFC if people sit at home watching it on NLTV

Apart from Hartlepool is on a Saturday and not on NLTV due to the 3pm blackout so we won’t make any money regardless.

I bet our earnings from this are minimal anyway as all the games are on the fire sticks now, my mate took his to Spain with us last week and we all watched the Orient game on it, incredible really

I’ll be watching the Hartlepool game on NLTV from either the US, Japan, Germany or the Netherlands (I haven’t made up my mind yet) so they’ll be getting 60% of my £9.50 at least although I suspect I won’t be alone

They’d had a good start to the season and were doing well when they came here on a nice summers afternoon. There home attendance has dropped off by 7/800 now so doubt they’d bring the same numbers this weekend if the fixtures were reversed.

They wouldn’t but as someone suggested ‘does it matter’.

Nope not really but I don’t think we should be criticising our support in any way, it’s been magnificent this season and probably has been for a while now. It’s ridiculous we are getting better crowds now than we did doing well at top end of league 1 & 2!!

And as I said the home crowds are the only thing that really matter to us although I’m sure the club doesn’t mind the large away following from Hartlepool either.

It is only poor old S&D

Same. I’m at work until 12 so zero chance I’ll make it. It’s great we can now watch games even when unable to travel.
