Notts vs Crewe - Attendance Predictions

[ncfcog]

Crewe have sold the lot! Presumably their social media person mean's 'There'll' or there will' though.

Looks like 'they'll' all be going to Norwich?

He's stating that the attendance (should all the ticket holders turn up, of course) will be the highest since we built the all-seater stadium. I must admit I thought it was the two Man City games though. Was the THFC game a league one? If so maybe that's it?

THFC 16,952
Man City 16,587

Ground capacity was restricted though v Man City, maybe it was a 'sell-out'?

What is the capacity now?

I bet Norwich are calling in extra stewards as we type... Time for a new Social Media guru at the Alex methinks

If OS is up to date on this and safety cert agrees... Stadium Capacity: 19,841 although I don't know if this allows for blocks of seats cordoned off for segregation being deducted or not.

Guess it depends on whether the away team take all the JS.

Talking about attendances - amazing how every year the FA Cup Final attendance at the old Wembley seemed to be exactly 100,000!

Yes, Man City was a sell out, I was offered £50 for ticket at the time. The capacity was restricted on H & S grounds.

It was the 3rd Round of the League Cup. Notts won 3-0 and Ossie Ardiles was then sacked, I seem to remember. See #76.

Got it thanks. Not a good era for me so I missed a lot of what was going on.

How exactly is attendance measured these days?

Tickets sold or peeps who turn up?



In England the rules of the premier league say that attendance figures that are publicly reported should be the number of tickets that are issued or sold. Not the number of people who actually attend. (I understand the football league rules say the same, although I couldn’t find the precise clause.)

The actual attendance figure can be quite different to the number of tickets that are issued or sold. Season ticket holders may not turn up for a midweek game. Complimentary, i.e. free, tickets could be issued but not used. People might even walk out in the middle of a match as a protest.

Wikipedia has that 19,841 made up of:
DP - 6,715
FS - 2,281
Kop - 5,440
JS home - 2,040
JS away - 3,365

So all home stands plus 1,450 Crewe fans = 17,926 minus about 200 left in JS the odd seats left in other 3.
