Can someone help answer me a question please dear fishy friends!! On Saturday morning I checked the GTFC Twitter which said 6000 seats had been issued.  Also I have just read the Dover website reaction which reckon they had over 60 fans (which there looked to be) yet we declared there were 25! Our official attendance was 5913 so can someone please help my mystery!! Cheers

Not all season ticket holders can attend every game and so are not included in the attendance.

It's tickets issued not tickets sold. I think we're probably giving a decent amount to local schools and charities and not everyone who gets one will then attend. There aren't hundreds of season ticket holders not attending every week.

I have a season ticket, it's scanned and counted as 1 when i enter the ground, i couldn't make it yesterday so i wouldn't be counted as part of the attendance, they assume before hand that all the season ticket holders would turn up and then add to that total all the tickets sold, that's how they knew 6,000 plus had been sold, but with the weather some season ticket holders and perhaps some bought ticket holders never turned up.

The bloke next to me was amazed how many fans Dover had brought, I had to explain  



When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

There are always quite a few reserved seats not filled each game in the Upper Young's.

I know an exile who has a season ticket but only makes a handful of games each season.

A Dover fan on the football forum recons they had 42 in the away end, but there were issues with ticket scanners not working properly, 25 is probably the number that actually got scanned in.
