Eddie Posted April 16 Share Posted April 16 2 minutes ago, 1969 said: Ahh me bad thought it was renewals only Open to all but renewals are the only ones that can buy their own seat at this point. So a newbie can buy an early bird ticket but only has the option of the remaining seats that aren’t currently allocated to one of this year’s season ticket holders … I think 🥴 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We ended up with 16k+ S.T's sold last season, including 1/2 tickets after Xmas... Those ones bought after last seasons early bird, would qualify for this seasons' early bird renewal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post paulhanley Posted April 20 Popular Post Share Posted April 20 Seems like the final average attendance for this season was 21080. Second best in the league behind Derby. From memory it was just shy of 19,000 last season. It's bloody impressive stuff. For most of my BWFC supporting life I'd never have dreamt we'd average that in a third tier season.

Greg_BWFC Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 I've really enjoyed this season Paul. Ok, it looks like we are coming up just short again, but we've had some great crowds with fantastic atmospheres, seen the good the bad and the ugly of our Whites 🤣. All in all, not that bad. Season ticket sales suggest we'll be getting great crowds again next season, whatever division we're in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Biggish Dave Posted April 20 Site Supporter Share Posted April 20 Is our current 86 points the 3rd highest we've achieved at 3 points for a win after Parkys mob and the 97 team? I've enjoyed it by and large. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leyther_Matt Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Atmosphere last week was the best since the Wilbraham game. Seen us score a seven and a five at home. If we manage to go up in the play offs then we’ve all got a bargain, really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stig Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 I feel like a killjoy but I've not enjoyed this season as much as some other seasons where we've had equally high points, as I just feel like it was a really big opportunity missed. I'm certain we have the best squad and we play like the best team at times. It's just the inconsistency of performance and lack of backbone, has ruined the overall enjoyment somewhat for me. However, the overall crowd sizes have been amazing. That Portsmouth game felt like being back in 2003 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, the overall crowd sizes have been amazing. That Portsmouth game felt like being back in 2003 Purely for home games, definitely a value for money season. As you say some great atmospheres and attendances (Saturday games). A coincidence that last 2 seasons we've won our first home game 3-0 and won the last one 2-0. In the middle 21 home games, we scored 27 goals last season, that's increased by TWENTY this season. Basically an extra goal a game. Yes watching us away has been frustrating from Blackpool onwards but great stuff at home for the most part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter FrancisFogarty Posted April 21 Site Supporter Share Posted April 21 I agree with all that and I'm not being negative but there have been two 5s and a 7 in that. Add an 8 against United kids in the cup and it looks like we are attacking every two minutes. Truth is we're not. We're still (decent) shot shy and missing sitters. It's been a good season and not over yet, but converting more sitters and actually having a pot on goa land we'd have been home and hosed by now.

For reference, our 2016/17 season in League 1 where we finished 2nd, we averaged 15,000, and we were miles behind Sheff United who averaged 21,000. This season we have averaged the same as them which is massively impressive considering our location as a north west town and a real testament to all the hard work done behind the scenes. Next season it's looking like 22,000+ in League 1 and possibly 24,000+ in the Championship. Unreal support. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next season it's looking like 22,000+ in League 1 and possibly 24,000+ in the Championship. Unreal support. It is unreal. It's also very out of keeping with BWFC support trends. We'd always been capable of pulling in very big gates but there was a fickleness over a season. That tendency seems to have evaporated. Also, the overall support base seems to be gently growing all the time, regardless of the frustrations that crop up during a season. No precedent for any of this in my time supporting the club really, certainly not outside the top flight. You have to go back to the mid 70s for anything remotely close. It all bodes well for when we finally get out of League 1, whether that's this year or another. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we'll have fewer people in the ground next season if we go up. We'd definitely be candidates for a bottom-third finish and that doesn't motivate people to turn out.
