After a fairly good attendance on Saturday and Torquay having a heathy following themselves, what are people thinking on attendance this evening. I know Tuesday night will limit travelling fans but are we expecting a good turnout?
They are on a bad run at the moment - can we take advantage?
2-2 is my prediction. Attendance of 740

They played at Braintree on Saturday and the attendance was only 100 to 150 above the hosts average.
The odds tell a tale with Boro 4/7 on, them 13/5, 13/5 the draw.
Shame in a way because it would have been good for the Boro coffers to have them near the top.
If we win we go above them.3-2 to Boro.

Yes its good to see the attendances growing, which I think in part is helped by the family oriented facilities. The club is going in the right direction.

Torquay are struggling but their overall away record doesn’t make good reading 4 wins 9 losses and 2 draws in 15 games. They score on average 1.4 goals away from home conceding 1.9.
Out home record is decent winning 9 of our 15 home games and only losing 2,we score 2.1 goals on average and concede 1.3.
Based on the above I’m going with a 2-1 boro win if we turn up and 2-2 draw if we get complacent.
Crowd wise I think 800-1200 would love to see over 1000 on a Tuesday night but it is a distance for them as it was for us back in September and with their shakey form not sure the crowds will follow.
On a separate note if Torquay don’t go up and the same could be said for others can how long can a club survive in the NLS at full time status.

Torquay are learning a very hard lesson in that it's not as easy as they thought it was going to be. Their supporters were tweeting pre season that they're going to walk this tinpot league.

They have certainly let me down in the final table position challenge. I had them and Yeovil as red hot 1st and 2nd, mainly due to their ex National and full time status, but 1 out of 2 is ok I suppose.
Don't write them off totally though. If we aren't on our game they could be very dangerous!!
If we do get a win, I think there could be a vacancy in the hot seat down there!!
COME ON YOU YELLOWWSSAA!!
