The crowds are not smaller.
Home crowd definitely looks smaller to me. Its probably just my eyes going

Crowds definitely smaller - they just never put the right figures up at Underhill.

That was in Stan Flashman's day, not in recent years!
The Mirror's Football correspondent reckons Underhill should win the award and that it's a much better film than the CR7 homage.

I am pretty sure the figures given at Underhill were accurate in the latter years.

Reminds me of that sound of the turnstiles clicking away at half time as Flashman fiddled the attendance figures.
Like a dodgy mechanic turning the mileage back on an old car.
A classic car, nonetheless.

They certainly were. Except for some games such as on a cold, wet and misty evening in December there were always about 1,400 to 1,500 home supporters you could rely on being at Underhill. The same is the case at The Hive. Of course at both venues there have been games where those numbers would be increased depending on the importance of the game.

The figures do not support this,
They show the Hive to typically have 100-150 fewer home support than a comparable game at Underhill. That's excluding high attendance end of season games.
The average away attendance is running at 200 higher

Perhaps watching the Film on Sky TV soon will help? Let's hope so.

Managed to find a thread on this from a while back!

Trying to explain just how good a documentary this is to my mates up north, even showed them the trailer and so want to watch it again. Don't know if any of you guys know if there is a stream online or will it ever get a DVD release?

I think it’s safe to say this documentary will never see the light of day to fans who don’t live around the Hive. :mellow:

It has clips of football league football in. There seems to be no move from the director to have it licensed. Therefore no film will ever be shown..

This whole fuss is because of a limited amount of action from League 2 matches that happened half a decade ago. Quite ridiculous, and it's a shame as it is such a good film which must've had a hell of a lot of work put into it.
