It will be interesting to see the attendance tmrw (I think). The offer is, bring your stub from the Man U game and get in for a £5.
It may take them sometime to get a 'crowd', maybe some of the JCL's will catch on.

The fans are waking up in Crawley, but it will take a while and some hard work from the directors/marketeers. There is no shame in taking thousands to a big game. We took over 6,000 to Villa and that trumps our home attendances for most of the last five years (excluding this season and some of last).

Every club takes its share of tourists to the big games, including ourselves. They're not fans, they are just day-trippers.
I seem to remember a team taking 41,000 to Wembley in 1991 for the play-off final against Notts County, and the next home match at the Goldstone was a spiffing 8,400

Exactly, I don't know why some people seem to have a problem with Crawley Town, I say good luck to them and I hope they get into the League.
Crawley sold about 500 half-season tickets before the Man United game. They have also done a lot of work with the local schools to give the kids free tickets. Every effort s being made to maintain the interest. I predict the crowd will be about 3,000 tomorrow - which is fantastic given their early season attendences. Good luck to them! The negativity on this board is a bit pathetic!

If they had have taken 1,500 to Old Trafford, would there be a thread saying how Mickey Mouse their support is?

They took 54 (fifty four) to Newport County for their first FA Cup game of this season - on a Saturday, incidentally.
Newport had taken 467 to Crawley the previous week.

I've been 'listening' and I decided some people have nothing worthwhile to say.

Ok fair enough. Read this.

That is why SOME people have a problem with Crawley Town. Can you understand why they may have this problem? Because you say you can't. Perhaps you mean YOU don't have a problem with them. That's a different thing altogether.
