It won't be many more than yesterday will it, because the grounds not much bigger than that attendance.
Or are they going to build an extension at the beginning of the season so that they can play the first 11 away again

...or just imagine when the promotion dream fails in the qualifiers, funding stops and the club disappears into oblivion. Both scenarios (promotion and oblivion) are possible but I think the sustainability of the club being based on a benefactor who can so easily do a runner is not a recipe for long term success.
My stance is clear on this, but I genuinely don't "wish" or "hope" for Toronto to fail. I just believe that a sustainable model like my own team (with 7 or 8 players in the squad that have come through our reserves, with an equal number of local Halifax born players) is a better way to go.
We might not have great crowds, we certainly have the lowest budget of those in the qualifiers by some margin, but we have a great coach and a close-knit team that back each other up to the hilt. We might lose 7 from 7, but we'll make each and every team work hard to take the 2 points off us.

You mean 'if'. Didn't Feath just smash them on Saturday? Going into the 8s off a loss at home like that doesn't bode well.

| Quote ="pandamonium"The other misinformation about the Lamport crowd photos is that the west side of the stadium is always fuller than the east side.'"
9,600/2 = 4,800 on each side. Let's say that the beer gazebo's at the end hold 1,000 people and that the west side was 90% full, then the East stand would only need 2,897, perfectly plausible.
It will be interesting in SL next year when Argyle discovers that CA$20 tickets + £1,800,000 central funding won't touch the sides of bankrolling in the top flight. Not one of the current squad will hack it in anything other than a relegation scrap, so he'll need to spend, but we have a cap, so he will be scrutinised....he'll find that SL chairmen don't care what his attendance figures are, only that he's just not another hungry mouth to feed......David Hughes at London spent in excess of £28,000,000 that I know of and all he's got to show for it is a 2nd tier team......let's hope Argyle has his passion and patience.......

Excuse me if I'm wrong but I thought Toronto didn't receive central funding?

They will do next season if they make SL....and they won't be paying air fares for visiting sides either, so they better be bringing a TV deal with them when they come

London is 3x that size and the Broncos get 3 figures, Newcastle is half a million and Thunder get around 1200, Sheffield is around half a mill too and get similar gates.....go figure...
Brand awareness. Something that hasn't yet latched on the British RL heartlands....

| Quality photo. Probably more fans in that one photo of one small section of the stadium than all the other championship clubs get at each home game.

Indeed. The benchmark has now been set. No excuse now.

Because the mod/mod’s mate with the multiple accounts want to spark debate/arguments across the forum because there are only about six of us who post on here and without his eight accounts the place would be like a ghost town.

It’s not antagonistic at all. I’m comparing like for like and pointing out for a championship level club, how well Toronto are doing. I also think it’s pretty laughable given Toronto are taunted at literally every post by certain fans of championship clubs yet when positive news is posted dummies are flung out of the pram.
