We are seeing a wee upturn because Scots boys are playing good football in the Premiership." Well yesterday's crowd of 1544, excluding the Alloa cup game, was the lowest gate I think of the season. You have to go back to the 16th August last year to find another attendance figure under 2000, when we got 1577 v Saint Johnstone. I counted 230 plus county fans so there were just over 1300 Accies fans there yesterday. You can reach out all you like for a new generation but if it isn't happening on the park if they do come they want stay for long. Yesterday showed fans voting with their feet. A pretty alarming collapse. A well run club has to have ambition. Events of the last few weeks have shown that it is to be a youth development one.
do they include all season tickets (inc. kids) in the attendance?
