No. To go back over it again, home crowds for Hastings women that I've been at have ranged from around 60-70 to around 300, usually nearer the 120-150 mark.

I'm not sure how else to explain it nor why it's so fascinating for you in Padstow.

The evidence of the recent posts on this thread suggests otherwise.

Great win for the Tics last night, Shrewsbury were unlucky not to pick up a point but you have to play the full 90mins and not switch off. Doncaster look doomed unless they can get Mac Murphy from Murphy’s Mob too save them.
Everywhere you go everything you see, some people say it’s a tragedy.

The two I saw City’s was dubious but I’ve seen them given. Utds was a joke no way it was a penalty.

Coincidentally all for the big 4 sides and all game changing.

None of them would have been given the other way. Certainly I can't ever remember a day when all of the top teams had important penalties against them.

I know people say the big clubs attack more, but it certainly wasnt the case in the Man Utd v Norwich game, where De Gea was man of the match. 

I think the referees subconciously feel comfortable awarding the top sides penalties as they know there will be little outrage.

Five penalties , and I disagree with bobruce ,Utds was the only one that should have been given , as for the City one , nonsense

He's typical of one of the sort of characters Arsenal have recruited in the past 10/12 years.

I wouldn’t fancy being one of those 600 and odd Ipswich fans who have made the long journey up to Barrow tonight if they lose.

Different sport, I know, but I used to play Ice Hockey, when I briefly lived just outside Newcastle, and after we got beat 0-12 @ Bournemouth we had a 14 hour coach journey back.

After that the English Hockey League divided the 2nd tier into North & South. 

2x Drivers, doing 3 hours each, stops at service stations were mad runs to the loo's, & food when they were open.

Bournemouth were due to play a 2-leg tie with Dundee. Both sides refused to travel.

Can you imagine what it was like before the M62 (Yes, there was a time before the M62, or any motorway), if one of the Hull teams had to play Liverpool Stanley, or Warrington, or a semi final at Swinton? 30k spectators + all trying to get on the railway trains, without Health & Safety Regs?

It’d be crazy.
