distantdog Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 It's OK trading insults over this but the simple question remains: what was the official attendance? I presume that all clubs are required by the RFL to provide attendance figures for league matches so the club must have an established system of accounting for everyone who attends. In addition, I believe that the safety at sports grounds legislation requires that every spectator admitted to matches is counted systematically. This is, i am sure,true. But is there a legal requirement to publish those attendance figures, or just to record them? I am sure that you have noted the trend of late for clubs to fail to publicly declare attendance figures. This seemed to become prevalent last season. Oh and l am not defending this practise, as l personally like to see them published, including from my own club! I also think that despite protestations, there are many assumptions being made on here, one of which is that the spectators were not counted systematically at the match!

RogerT Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 I was one of those that went through the said turnstile and there where no clicks nor the gate moved and nobody with a manual clicker, but then again what does it matter I paid my money and half of it goes to Dewsbury and half to Batley so I'm happy.

So Roger, if there was no click, the gate did not move and there was nobody with a manual clicker, how can you be sure that half the money you handed over went to Batley and half to Dewsbury?

I went through a gate, paid my money and it clicked! I still have no idea whether half my money went to Batley, Dewsbury or elsewhere! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
9' oller Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 I went through a gate and the operative made a clicking sound with her mouth, or was it a tut 'Shaw cross juniors, Birkenshaw, Mirfield, Heckmondwike Panthers, Stainland Stags and then the Heavy woolen donkeys...

RogerT Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 Hello fredm, just as I handed my bid money note over the operator asked if I had it in changed as they didn't have any, just then one of the dayglow wearing person handed over £80 in pound coins and that could only have come from the office, so it had to be accounted for. I trust KN and the Batley Bulldogs to be honest and fair and above board or I wouldn't have got a season ticket, war chest membership, warm up top or used the bars, and I am only speaking about the turnstile I went through, I can't speak for the rest.

Batley Bob Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 Look at it from outside the box Batley fans most probably out numbered the Ram's fans at the game by 3-1 And we still get 50/50 of the gate money Shut up you tarts... We're on a winner And bulls fans probably outnumbered dewsbury fans too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coolie Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 And bulls fans probably outnumbered dewsbury fans too Games in a mess Dwindling interest,lack of promoting the event I dread to think what the crowd at the big bash will look like Hopefully they'll lock the gates at 1pm So nobody can get out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I trust KN and the Batley Bulldogs to be honest and fair and above board or I wouldn't have got a season ticket, war chest membership, warm up top or used the bars, and I am only speaking about the turnstile I went through, I can't speak for the rest. We all trust KN etc to be honest and fair but it would appear that the allegation is that there was no means on recording how many persons went through the turnstile. If this is so, then there is nothing to measure the amount of money collected from that turnstile against. By recording the numbers who go through it not only tells the club what the attendance was, it also covers the turnstile operator in as much that the money handed over is equal to the amount given by the number of spectators admitted. I would have thought that the operator him/her self would have wanted this. Following the unfortunate events which occurred last season, I would have presumed a thorough check would have been carried out over the winter to ensure all matters concerning cash and/or tickets were fully documented and accountable.

billybulldog Posted December 30, 2016 Author Share Posted December 30, 2016 Very strange that there hasn't been any comment by mr nichols or the club on the attendance issue, not even on the paper's match report is there any attendance shown, surely some one can give an insight into this issue, imo of course.

London Dick Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 The attendance in league express is 1669. Thought there was a few more there but that doesn't seem too bad.
