Sorry, don't wholly agree with this, considering our league status, our current crowds are fantastic compared to our historical support."GodalmingYellow" wrote:Sure 4,000 is not low compared to others at this level, but it is low compared to historical OUFC support. Get the price right and the fans will turn up, but people won't pay over-inflated prices to see low level football."Baboo" wrote:Low?"GodalmingYellow" wrote: In fact, as I suggested above, the low crowds are a good indicator of overpricing.
It depends what you are comparing with - capacity yes.
But we are starting to get 4000 home supporters turning up again.
We are the best supported team in the BSP.
We are in our 3rd season at this level so perhaps it is surprising that gates are still so high.
Low? I am not so sure.
I remember watching OUFC play a Div 3 home game in 79/80 in front of 2,500 people! and a Div 2 home game in 1991 in front of 3,500 people.
In fact crowds have held up well ever since we moved to the KasStad.
