Plenty did not sign up to Liberty way - I know Boro fans that were regulars at Manor Park but never went or only went a couple of times to the new ground.
Boros last 3 seasons in the top level( conf, alliance premier league) witnessed average crowds 300 bigger than the 3 seasons of top flight played at Liberty way.
And I’ve seen widespread negativity on Facebook pages where people have stated in numbers that they stopped attending games when Boro left Manor Park. Many walked to games at Manor Park from the housing estates of Stockingford.
Anyone who thinks that Boro/town will be well supported at a ground in the eastern extremities of the town again is misguided.
500 fans at Beduth for low level non league is one thing but they’ll need a big increase on that if they get back to higher levels.
IMO the club was never viable at Liberty way above southern prem central.
If you have t git a backer you’re main income is through gates and what those people spend.
