Alas they fell at the last hurdle, I went to a few matches and I think they got over 5 thousand in for one clash. After that the crowds died down to about 100.'"
I went to one against Harrogate Railway at belle vue on a Wednesday night and the attendence was announced as 12, it was a rearranged game and it was snowing.
