Attendances (Multiple Merged Threads)

[Sir Kevin Sinfield]

Another one 

[Dallas Mead]

I was just interested in the Leeds Hull attendance for the testimonial match.  I find myself “doing the math” and hoping for a good pay day for said player

It wasn’t just yours mate, there’ve been loads this week, which is fair enough, attendances are fascinating.

This year more than most, as there's no substantial covid excuse or otherwise this time as we need a bounceback.

What's wrong with advertising  your next game, maybe more clubs should do it.

Nothing. I wasn't suggesting there is. When I go to York, they often hand out advertising flyers. Good move.

@ckn @John Drake - Can all the other ones be merged now

You've got confused. This is the Attendance Thread, not the Attendance Thread Thread.

Especially as football grounds are as busy as ever, so people blatantly aren’t scared of going to packed stadiums. The CC and Championship attendances from last week offer encouragement though.

In opposition to @Eddie and @Bedfordshire Bronco, I think as RL supporters we deserve as many attendance threads as possible.

Discuss attendances here also if you like.

I really wasn't having a dig at you chap and agree it's nice to see good testimonials

Pleased to see we have one attendance thread (if someone can merge the old threads)

[Bedfordshire Bronco]

Ha ha....

[Bedfordshire Bronco]

Or any threads about starting more attendance threads

Some promising attendances in the figures published yesterday for the Championship games  (London, Barrow, Leigh) but it's really hard to find attendance figures for all games - especially Championship and beyond. Does anyone know if there is anywhere they are published? Or does anyone have the time to collate and publish on here (big ask I know!) 

You should be able to find them on at least one of the other attendance thread.

Try the 

or 

or 

or 

But don’t expect to find it here because @Bedfordshire Bronco won’t allow it

Should show gate receipts also then

I remember years ago in the old Saints supporters club diary they’d give the attendances for cup games and the gate receipts. Nowadays the club doesn’t even tell you the full details of a players contract.

I’m only commenting because this attendance thread is feeling lonely down the list

Yes.

That does make a lot of sense.

Most results had crowd and receipts back in the day

 

[Sports Prophet]

This one shouldn’t be neglected either

[Sports Prophet]

Ooohhh another one

Very RL that we are now onto the third thread about yesterday's Championship attendances.

Attendances have always been a talking point in RL ever since i started going.
When i meet up with mates at a game we sometimes have a sweep and the closest to the correct attendance wins the cash. When i speak to people who didn’t go to the game they will ask “how many was on” and “how many away fans were there”.

Apologies for not being clear, its just that we were told Monday nights and being on TV would be terrible for crowds. Turns out its the best crowd of the week!

Always remember ''Top line is vanity, bottom line sanity'' (ok Cash is reality but not applicable here)

John.....Can we have an attendance thread purely for attendance chat please ?

Much like political or Covid chat I would like to avoid it as a topic 

Not a dig at you Dallas by way. I do understand lots of people are interested 

I think you're right - a lot of people are interested and it would be good to get it in it's own specific thread, for all things attendance related. It should be kept in the General RL forum though, unlike politics/covid which were rightly moved out. 

[Guest]

As well as the attendance, couldn’t clubs list the name and address of the attendees? Not only would it prove you were a real fan, should you ever get caught up in any sort of police case you can use it as a cast iron alibi. Win win 

[Jughead]

Can we have a thread about what clubs are doing free tickets, what clubs are doing reduced price tickets and one about what traffic, TV and ticket prices and how it affects away attendances?

[Spidey]

At this rate there may be a new sub forum coming
