Quoted from forza ivano


5968 with 90 away, that means that 500 town fans didn't turn up given someone posted that 6300 home tickets had been sold.

I don't get it


6323 seats were sold at 7pm on the ticketing system (yes i'm sad I counted )  , I was interested in the disparity between the seats sold and actual bums on seats - so going on that roughly 500 did not turn up (which is maybe around the regular amount of ST non atendees ?)  I felt like it was more for a lot of games last season .

I think a few STH. don't make mid week games Forza.

Holidays and exiles can account for 500 empty seats.

I know a couple of people who were absent away on holiday.

I suppose - if you play for Salford - on the one hand you have the high profile ex Manchester United players ruling - but only 90 fans come to watch - it must be confusing and underwhelming.

5300sh season tickets sold, 500 don't turn up - I think midweek it's expected that there's about a 10% attrition rate, especially at this time of year with people on holiday etc.

Midweek games aren't what should be used as a measuring stick.  I know a fair few exiles with ST's who find midweek games a struggle.  I'm an hour away and for every midweek game I think 'can I really be arsed?'.  Any further than that and I think I would seriously consider my sanity.

Fair enough, I'll round it down to 9% no-shows then.

The fact is the amount of seats sold even on a Tuesday night is more than the 'natural' home capacity .
