Apparently we’re putting an offer on for Lincoln to get people in? Er wrong. A game too late.
Also their massive game against that well known powerhouse of Sutton united is on tv this weekend.
Maybe you should have done. It was a poor turn out for a huge game. I fully expected it to be a sell-out but I was some way wide of the mark it seems.
Least we’re not playing Sutton Celtic at the weekend.
Take care,

Oh dear. Chumpy is clutching at straws. Poor wee lamb!
An observation. Do you not think the gravity of the game, two promotion chasing sides in a local derby justified it?
When we had a TV game game of a similar stature, at the same stage of the season v Rotherham there were 8000 home fans in a sell-out.
You should go up though, although the game last night was an appalling spectacle. I didn’t realise Lincoln were such an horrible outfit to be honest.
When you played Rotherham you were 10 points clear at the top of the league and playing your first season in a new shiny stadium.
Stags have no recent history of being in that position, we have not even finished in the play off positions since we got promoted back. Our crowds are generally on the up due to a modicum of success and potential (nothing achieved yet) and if we can hit the heights your club did during the first half of this decade then I am sure we can add another thousand or so, yours are down to 4-5 k due to not being able to sustain your recent purple patch in terms of success and sexy football. If you get stuck in level 5 for a few more seasons then your crowds will drop further.
Just 4 years ago you were averaging more than double our crowds (albeit with a constructive counting system), the gap has gone and moving the other way. We could average more than you for the first time since 2003/04 when you were one level higher than us in the pyramid (our average was approx 1000 more if I remember)
