    It's the same when they come to our grounds, I remember going to see us play Ebsfleet a season or two ago and they only brought about 5 fans!

    On Boxing Day, it seems like Lincoln missed out on something like £16k through empty seats. We sold out our allocation of about one thousand, but come game time there are 4000 Grimsby fans who could be there but can't due to idiot Lincoln people. At least they miss out on money as a result of it.

    The most embarassing one was in 2008 when we went up from League Two (I believe you guys got to the JPT final that year, beating us on a torrid night en route!), we played Chester City in about March and the away stands behind the goal and to the side were ours we filled them and because they'd underestimated what we'd bring and didn't make it all ticket we had more fans coming in and it became unsafe so some of our fans were frogmarched around the pitch whilst the game was in play and we ended up with 3 sides and Chester had one stand, worse was to come when the game was abandoned on 62 minutes due to weather and because of ticket restrictions only 2,000 tickets were allocated for the replay meaning over 1,000 County fans missed out on a ticket they'd already paid for! Was completely farcical!

    We've got Richard Brodie in on loan until the end of the season, very happy with that one.

    Interesting, Cheers for that MM, seems that Luton have the biggest by a bit then obviously us and Wrexham seem to be around a similar amount then quite a big drop to the next one being Newport!

    Surprised Dartford take as many as they do!
