All clubs need a core home support of 800 and the ambition to double that, either by marketing or by improving the product (with a better track and better racing or with one league giving a more attractive variety of opponents). Seems they have had no problem breaking even with other opponents or going up against the GP on two nights, just against oppo from a distance Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You’d imagine that all home fans would be keen to see Glasgow when they come to town? It’s your team’s biggest test. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It’s your team’s biggest test. It makes sense from a regional point that the nearer the club the more fans they are likely to bring etc. From an attraction point of view the strength of one club will change, but the distance remains the same. I think that is always the case that near neighbours attract a bigger crowd. What happened this season I don’t know. Were those two dates then affected by bad weather or another attraction?
