Attendances again - drives me mad

[hirstyboywonder]

[quote="lansdowneoldskool"]This topic keeps appearing, it's latest form has risen on pig mad re the Forrest game attendance. Both sets of fans are as bad as each other though, it's an obsession which is embarrassing.

To clarify united get good attendances for a top ten team in its 4th season in division 3. Wednesday get good attendances for a regular lower half championship team.

To be fair I would have thought there would have been more yesterday bear in mind our current position. That's TV for you though.

If both teams were in the same division with equal success they would be hitting the same attendance figures give or take a couple of hundred either way.

You have to take in to account the cost of attending matches, TV and people working weekends nowadays.

Frankly both teams could manage comfortably with a shared 25k stadium. In fact I wish they would do this, joint costs, better facilities, long term

It was sold out for home fans: - view external link

It was sold out for home fans:

When we sold out home tickets in recent seasons we moved the away fans support to accommodate more home fans than the capacity of your ground can hold.

You do agree that extending a ground that has a capacity of around 32,000 is pointless when you have only attracted 30,000 once for a cup game in the past 4 seasons and don't even average 20,000 though right?

[lansdowneoldskool]

My point was that the ground wasn't big enough the last time United were in the Prem.

Your point always is that the fans turned up to see Ronaldo despite the fact that he played one game - and the other 20 games were virtually sold out for home fans.

The fact is that more United fans turned out to see Bromby and Geary then Wendy could manage for Waddle and Hirst.

Just going off topic a little bit here but...

Well done Chezzy.

And it doesn't make a blind bit of difference if you took 134,000 oinkers yesterday...

Attendances don't get you three points!

Attendances don't get you three points!

Oh braggy.

Germany still had a Kaiser the last time your lot won 3 points. You're dropping down the league like a stone and performances are getting worse and worse.

How did Wednesday get on for their last visit to Chesterfield ... does Megson mull over that 90 minutes when he's pottering around in his garden pondering why the most intelligent fans in the country turned against him?
