McConville who really was crap for us, Lacey whos not playing anymore, Rowe fair dos is doing well but still unproven above conference north, Smith who's last known club was Southport in 2014
McConville and Lacey are now/went on to be football league players. Danny Rowe is now signed to a Championship club and Paul Smith was put in there as a banter.
Depends which Danny Rowe we are talking about - there have been a few here...

Did Fylde bring many when they last came for the festive fixtures? Surely now they would bring double the previous amount with them drawing treble the numbers now & being in the higher league, certainly bring more than Heed ever did.

Paul Smith is/was at Southport but picked up a career threatening injury which has completely ruled him out of any action this season.As for Danny Rowe his critics continually forget that during his spell at Stockport and early in his Barrow career he suffered a severe bout of pleurisy a debilitating illness of which I have personal family experience,which can give the appearance of laziness.

They took 128 today to the biggest game ever in their short history. Poor that.
Had about 80 at barrow on New Years dat couple of seasons ago.

I am assuming 80 is more than Heed usually bring & based on your stats they should bring at least over 120 which is still very poor but better than nowt.

It's hard to say how many they would bring, like most clubs it depends on form.

Hopefully, Hartlepool too. It'll be just like our old Football League days!
I hope the Welsh avoid the drop -an unattractive fixture, to say the least...

Hartlepools' demotion is long overdue - by about 50 years.Back in the sixties they applied succesfully for re-election for five succesive seasons. When they escaped on the sixth the local council gave them a Civic Reception !

Would i be right in thinking Hartlepool had to re-apply more than any other side before automatic promotion/relegation.
If so then yes, a long time overdue
