On the evidence of that one match (and the guy I was sitting next to wasn't even sure what our colours were at the start) I worry that it'll be precious few, if any at all.
Face it, it was a poor match overall, the result didn't go our way. Most of the blame is being laid on the pitch (that's what BOTH Managers seem to be saying - and I concur). Will people return if their only experience of Town is hoof-ball on a muddy field?
I wonder how many of the attendees had tickets to the Hinckley match as well? And how many will actually use them having seen the Hastings one?
I feel extremely sorry for the club, having taken a bold move to improve the pitch and have it all go pete tong due to the somewhat extraordinary weather. I may be being very negative, but I feel that only a thumping victory at Hastings will stand any chance of re-activating the interest in Town that the possibility of 3rd round football generated. And even then, are people going to remember when faced with the possibility of another display on a brown field?
