If it really does improve attendances, then good luck to them, I'd be willing to shelf my personal reservations and go along with regular Friday night matches. But I've got my doubts about this...I just can't see many fans of other clubs watching Stanley on Friday nights, then going along to watch their "first" club the day after. And if it was such a big success at Tranmere, how come they're not still doing it?

Agree with most of that Wynonie.
Quick check shows we didn't do it last year, previous year we had 5 Forest Green Rovers fans turning up, and gates of approx 1500 turning up for that game and Hereford (1800 last year on a Saturday)
Tranmere, they didn't have much choice in those days when Anfield and Goodison were both pulling 50,000 plus regularly on Saturdays, I'd go along with my mates if we had nowt better to do.
They've already moved Dagenham to Friday, BTW.
