Waterloo FC are following the success of the record-crowd busting gates at the start of the season and offering free entry to all for this Saturday's home game against Hull Ionians.
Director Dave Raywood said "free entry for the first two home games has resulted in Waterloo having by far the biggest crowds in the league this season.
"Plus, those crowds are staying to enjoy all the post-match entertainment we're laying on. We seem to have found the formula for a great afternoon's entertainment for the whole family with hog roasts, bouncy castles and so on so we're doing it all again this Saturday.
"Despite the free entry our receipts are well up on recent years because of the sheer numbers turning up for each home game."
This Saturday, Waterloo welcome Hull Ionians to Blundellsands for the first time in their history and with Hull having lost their first four matches of the season, Waterloo start as favourites to win.
Perhaps Waterloo's new strip will bring them some luck - this Saturday they will wear their new kit for the first time.
The red, white and green shirt was chosen by members of mywaterloorugby.com and features a red band which on close examination reveals the names of all the mywaterloorugby.com members as well as all Waterloo club members and players including minis and juniors.
When Waterloo take the field at 3pm on Saturday they will literally be carrying the supporters' hopes on their backs.
