Obviously family duties and COVID restrictions [ eg me !! ] will clash but wouldnt have expected it to be a great number ??

Whilst it has been some time since we could watch a game and you might expect more to have come on the reverse some just don't like friendlies and there's possibly a few who have been hit hard by the pandemic and couldn't attend. I doubt we will know for sure until the season starts but fortunately the crowds for pre-season look like they will generate some decent money for the club so i'm very happy with that.

As for the game it was really enjoyable and very happy with what i witnessed on the playing side.
