how typical of the people of accrington,eric lets people in for free and the gate is over 4000,and the weather was awful and this week when rovers and burnley have no game and the weather is not to bad just over 1400,this is surely a kick in the teeth to mr whalley,he looses about 15,000 pounds v torquay and his gesture was repaid by a crap attendance, so do the people of accrington not want a football team or pehaps the reasons go deeper.
1. no cover on the coppice or clayton ends yet
2. addmission prices to high for adults
3. lack of toilet facilities or not enough toilets
4. no bar facilities at the clayton end

and b4 anyone starts slagging me of,the facts speak for themselves we were getting better attendances in the conference and non- league even when the prices were a bit high,i know the staff at asfc work hard and eric whalley has to be praised for his work but unless the attendances improve asfc are going nowhere.
just look at some of the grounds asfc visited last season, and even chester city andmost of the div 2 grounds are 100% better than the FES,this is not slagging the ground off but perhaps asfc are a small fish in a big pond and if things dont inprove they will be eaten
so come on people of accrington, bring a friend to the next home game and double the gate. i hope people can be constructive about this subject and post what may be of help to boost the gates,
