[Clyde1998]

Good showing last night.

Haven't seen Clyde1998 in a while. Hope you're alright.

Thanks. I've been dealing with some personal issues, so haven't been able to be on here too often.

[Clyde1998]

I will be updating this for the 2025-26 season - just waiting on a couple of figures from today.

I've made a few updates to how I do this, so should be easier for me to do some more things this season.

Hopefully the image below shows.

Lincoln sold 2k for Easter Monday already.

[tidus_mi2]

Lincoln sold 2k for Easter Monday already.

With it being designated 106 day, should be a pretty big crowd, right?

You’d hope, but there didn’t seem to be much of a difference to a normal game when I looked yesterday. Probably won’t have time to look today to see if much has changed, as I’m at the Berks & Bucks game in Hungerford.

I do need to do a general update of this thread. Requires me to find a decent way to present it without risk of the image hosting site shutting down.

[RG30]

No surprise but Lincoln sold out for next Monday.

[Clyde1998]

With a lot of image hosting sites going down, I've been trying to find a good way to present this data. For now here's the raw figures.
