Just a quick thank you all for today …
Today was the busiest the club has been ever … I know we’ve had bigger gates, but today we had 80 food covers in hospitality, with all the boxes filled. We’ve never done that before … we had no end of compliments from visitors and corporate‘s around the fun, family atmosphere that was created.
Thank you all.

Thank you (& the rest) for giving us a home AP.
Really positive interviews after the match, onwards & upwards!
It did seem very busy for a crowd of 900. Food queues seemed at least twice as long as some of the other "busier" games. Hopefully some decent money in the coffers, even if not quite the attendance we would all like.
Crowd in general seemed to have a bit of a feel good factor today as well.
Really pleased for the club and you AP and I hope there will be many more Saturdays like this to follow. It's good that attendances are still good in respect to our league position, yes I know you would like it to be greater, I look at the attendance today to say the football community believe in the club and team.
I hope the players appreciate what's happening and respond, would be great to get a win next Saturday.
Today we had so many compliments about how friendly and safe the atmosphere was. Which is great … the shop did well too, sold over 20 shirts, so that was good

Good to hear and seems what you did after Folkestone last week worked a treat.
I know it’s a bit short of our break even figure, but doesn’t it show how far we’ve come that there’s a hint of disapproval that we “only” had 911 in attendance!
Come on Tyson!!
There was a quiet buzz about NMP , a degree of anticipation.
Granted a nice day a new era but what made it look good was when there was a queue at the bar more staff appeared, smell of the cooking onto the patio, the beer flowing, people enjoying themselves even before kick off.
Nice one.
I think what has been created for the people of Gloucester is an enjoyable place to go on Saturday afternoon. Sat in the 1883 stand next to the clubhouse like I do it’s noticeable the amount of people - mainly male aged 40-60 ish- who appear to meet up have a few beers and a good time. I’m not sure how much of the football they watch but who cares.
There’s also youngsters wandering around with burgers and hotdogs- bigger than their hands !!! All having fun.
Get a few decent results and we will have no problem getting 1000+ thru the turnstiles- yesterday’s 900 I think was a reflection of the rugby being home as well - give people somewhere safe and fun to go and they will come.
Thanks AP for making it happen.
Agreed. Felt like a promising new dawn. Lots of things moving in the right direction. Not sure I've seen such a positive 0-0.
Thanks to all involved.
