Based on what you say, this would lead to an attendance of 6,500 - 7,000, assuming all c3,000 1901ers are counted as attending.
In some ways the Colchester fixture maybe have been more attractive as it was the first game of the season.
I'm going to do my bit for the attendance and buy 2 (two)...
It's a bit difficult all round, I guess.
ST won't want to risk running a wider service and taking a big financial hit if take up is low, and I guess the club don't want to offer to under-write those losses.
