A few years ago many clubs would run buses/mini buses to tracks all over the country but with the cost of living now its difficult for many fans to travel.
Regarding fan numbers, I was at Scunthorpe last night and estimate the crowd to be around 350 ish, whilst the Workington crowd is 450/550 I would guess ?
Probably not.
Who knows, Poole have a long history of success in both Leagues so have a big fanbase but like all clubs must keep promoting and make the package attractive especially to the younger fans as most clubs rely on an ever ageing band of fans.
I'm not sure even if Worky had more success they would attract even a thousand fans.
An entertaining meeting last night at Scunthorpe , Workington looked to have lost their way early in the meeting but fought back well to get the scores to within four points but the last two heats the scorpions pulled clear to win by 10.
Both sides had bad luck with fallers and exclusions but on the whole probably a fair result.
Good to see quite a few Comets fans at Scunthorpe to cheer on the lads.
Batch looked to be very much on the pace last night at Scunthorpe and was backed by Kemp and Tate Ziscke and to a lesser extent Jonas, hopefully Worky can get the win tonight to get us off the foot of the table.
Not sure really , Redcar always do well at Workington and have won there for the past three occasions I believe but Workington usually keep it close at Redcar only going down 46-44 in July.
I think our best chance would be at Scunthorpe but it will not be easy....interesting few days ahead.
