Attendance announcement 18:44 - Feb 22 with 6922 views | Jinxy | They need to reword it. It's fraudulent and an out-and-out lie. It's ticket sales and we're not quite as daft as we look. | | | | |
Attendance announcement on 18:49 - Feb 22 with 5493 views | Cooperman | It doesn’t matter when every club takes the same approach. | |

Attendance announcement on 18:51 - Feb 22 with 5478 views | Dr_Winston | Or just not announce it at all. Not as if anyone really cares. | |
| Pain or damage don't end the world. Or despair, or f*cking beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man... and give some back. |

Attendance announcement on 18:51 - Feb 22 with 5475 views | LeonWasGod | Yep. It’s how it’s done and everyone knows it. | | | |
Attendance announcement on 18:53 - Feb 22 with 5463 views | Garyjack | This. I suppose it would be nice to know the actual attendance, but it's not something that people should get upset about. | | | |
Attendance announcement on 19:11 - Feb 22 with 5342 views | Jinxy | Ah so if every club does the same inaccurate thing, it's alright then. Okeydokes! Think about it - why do it? What they should address is that instead of masking why people (ST holders?) have paid, decide not to attend. Bury your head in the sand, and you never address the issue. That's my point. | | | |
Attendance announcement on 19:50 - Feb 22 with 5228 views | westside | Don"t announce the attendance as it's cr8p and pointless. | | | |
Attendance announcement on 19:52 - Feb 22 with 5214 views | NeathJack | It's a strange tradition. You don't go to the cinema and them flash up the number of people sat there watching the film 3/4 of the way through. No idea why it's done, or at least still done, at football. | | | |
Attendance announcement on 19:58 - Feb 22 with 5191 views | sainthelens | At least when you go to the cinema you pretty much have an idea of what you'll be watching. I've literally no fckn idea what to expect with us anymore. | | | |
Attendance announcement on 20:14 - Feb 22 with 5129 views | NeathJack | That's half the fun. | | | |
Attendance announcement on 20:24 - Feb 22 with 5086 views | budegan | I don't know if this sheds any light at all but on the radio today the commentator sounded surprised at the announcement too and said that he thinks it includes season tickets (presumably as in *all* season tickets whether they've attended or not). | | | |
Attendance announcement on 20:26 - Feb 22 with 5075 views | Jinxy | Very true. I wonder why they announce "inflated" attendances. Answers on a postcard folks. Lemmings on here it seems. Either no announcements, or be honest. Good grief. | | | |
Attendance announcement on 20:27 - Feb 22 with 5072 views | Garyjack | No way! You've got to be kidding me man! | | | |
Attendance announcement on 20:31 - Feb 22 with 5044 views | Badlands | I thought it was about right. 6,500 down on capacity makes attendance about 2/3 rds of the Liberty ... that looked about right. | |
| |
Attendance announcement on 20:31 - Feb 22 with 5046 views | Thornburyswan | Guess it depends on whether the club(& all the others) see it as announcing the tickets sold or bums on seats. | | | |
Attendance announcement on 20:32 - Feb 22 with 5041 views | Jinxy | Nice view from that fence? | | | |
Attendance announcement on 20:34 - Feb 22 with 5018 views | Jinxy | They announce it as attendance. That's my point. | | | |
Attendance announcement on 20:39 - Feb 22 with 4996 views | Garyjack | Chill out Jinx ffs. Nobody gives a shit. | | | |
Attendance announcement on 20:39 - Feb 22 with 4995 views | Cooperman | No sh1t! | |
| |
Attendance announcement on 20:41 - Feb 22 with 4977 views | Garyjack | Just as a point of order, the word 'shit' is allowed. | | | |
Attendance announcement on 20:46 - Feb 22 with 4923 views | Jackfath | I often wonder why people clap when it's announced. | |
| |
Attendance announcement on 20:46 - Feb 22 with 4924 views | Jacket | They presumably don't need to do it down the cinema nowadays because you'll usually have enough fingers to count the atendees in nine out of ten showings unless your within the first couple of days of the film's opening. Unless of course you're talking about a Jack to a King in Swansea, quite successful that was. | | | |
Attendance announcement on 20:51 - Feb 22 with 4900 views | Cooperman | We are said to learn something new every day of our lives. It’s taken me until 20:50 to tick my box. | |
| |
Attendance announcement on 21:00 - Feb 22 with 4870 views | Garyjack | Aww bless you Jinx, you down arrowed me for saying you should 'chill out'. CHILL OUT NO ONE CARES! GET A GRIP! | | | |
Attendance announcement on 21:11 - Feb 22 with 4823 views | Jinxy | Gary, you seem like a cornfield. You agreed with both sides of the argument within minutes. Very chilled here thanks, but have you finalised your considered vetdict? Should the announcement be a little more honest, or not make one at all, or, given you are speaking for the masses, does it not matter at all? Genuinely and respectfully curious. | | | |
Attendance announcement on 21:30 - Feb 22 with 4754 views | Garyjack | My verdict is Jinx, that you're making a mountain out of a molehill, and my stance remains the same as it was in my first post. Nobody cares. Now chill out or carry on it's up to you. I'm not going to get into a debate over something so meaningless and trivial. #whogivesafvckinshit | | | |
