What glory exactly?What else do you call fans who attend when things are looking good, but fuck off when things look bad?And I get what you mean, but if things were looking rosier down B6 there'd have been more than 30K today. It's more than just a case of floating fans who can't afford it.

I thought it was a decent game. More good than bad. If you'd rather go to Alton Towers than Villa Park, it says more about you, than the football on offer.
I agree with pretty much everything you say Paulie, it's been a probably only the mid 80s and the last DOL season have I felt as crap over the direction we seem to be taking as I do right now. Which is in part due thinking those days were over when Randy arrived.But for approx 20% of our "support" to stop attending so quickly as soon as the going gets tough is shocking. And if they've stopped coming so quickly and easily because things are tough, then what else are they apart from glory hunters?I'm not including those that can't afford it in the glory statement, i've been in that position where I haven't been able to afford to get to VP, but such a large percentage drop can't all be down to pure finances.
