Barnsley manager Simon Davey has appealed to Tykes fans to turn out on match days and support their team, after admitting he has been disappointed by attendances this season.
Davey was unhappy that just 9,900 turned up at Oakwell to watch Tuesday's 1-0 victory over Wolves and ahead of Saturday's visit of Crystal Palace the Tykes boss has issued a rallying cry.
"We have not lost here since August and have the second best home record in the division after Ipswich," he told the club's official website.
"Our fans were fantastic in the second half on Tuesday night. We did not break the 10,000 mark which was a little disappointing and we need to attract some back to Oakwell.
"The players are performing like entertainers at the moment and they will continue to do that until the end of the season.
"I can promise the stay away fans that we will continue to play entertaining football and show passion.
"If our supporters come back in their thousands I am sure they will be even better."
