Quoted from ginnywings
There is clearly an anomaly between tickets issued and the actual match day attendance and It's hppened every game this season.

I have no idea what the anomaly is though.


I wasnt basing my comment on the difference between what had been stated as tickets issued and the attendance I realise some won’t turn up though I would just add that the 7000 issued figure was early this morning before today’s sales which would be another 200:0or 300 no doubt. I was basing it more on what my eyes can see.

You wouldn't have thought about 20% of season tickets holders wouldn't be turning up though sounds far too high.

If it's the freebies not turning up, perhaps we need to give less freebies or change how it's done.

Was it not 7000 tickets available? Not 7000 sold? It's a complicated one.

really, we shouldn't be worried - we've sold 7000+ tickets , we've got the money in; it doesn't really matter how many subsequently attend

It's clever wording by the club in the run up to the game, they say "issued" not "sold". My guess is that issued includes freebies given out which are subsequently not used.

Can only assume, and most plausible explanation, seems to be that they automatically include the 3000+ season ticket holders in the figures when they announce attendance updates through the week. But as someone else has also queried, surely there wasn’t 600-700 season ticket holders not at the game today? With the form we are in and on a Saturday afternoon. Something doesn’t add up and feel in this new era of transparency club should clarify.

Sorry but it matters me if the figure is nit correct and if there were only 6400 in the ground today then Lennie is a great finisher.

Why though?

Why does it matter?

As long as we are not committing fraud it doesn’t bother me in the slightest. It’s just d1ck waving.
