Yes, That's the one, couldn't even sell 24k from 25k allocation for an FA Cup Final.

Whereas we shifted the full 32,000 allocation for a League Cup Final, 8,000 more than Little Pompey.

Probably a Basketball game on in 2010 I guess, seems to dent your attendances.


Just looking at the EFL semi final with the same opposition Chelsea, you only had 73,416 in 2018. That is 15k less than Pompey

Then 31,480 for the home league cup SF in 2018, and 52,238 for the away SF, both under capacity, then bingo a good number for the final.

I notice that we took 84,602 to the 2010 SF. It appears that your club much prefers finals to semi-finals

You don't know anything about my life.

I can tell you aren't happy about yours though, as you let other posters 'ruin your day'. That is a very weak position to be in. You need to get some more positivity about you, get out in the garden fella, do some gardening, take some deep breaths and maybe do some stuff for other people, as it stops you thinking about yourself.

I also notice that your lot took 1,288 on a Saturday late afternoon to an away play-off semi final last season.

Whereas we took 5,500 to Derby on a Tuesday night when we were 3-2 down from the play-off first leg.

How do you figure that, caller? Who ruins my day on here? It’s fun to give you and the likes of 22 a bit of abuse but that’s just something to pass a bit of dead time. The fact you believe mongboards are capable of ruining someone’s day is quite revealing isn’t it? Has it happened to you recently? Do you need to talk to someone?

You need to stop being so obsessed by me. Les was exactly the same as you, he just couldn't let go. Maybe you are les' twin brother, or maybe you are just les with another of your myriads of on-line characters.

Ever thought of writing a script for a TV comedy? you have more characters than Harry Enfield. Don't let your talent go to waste.

That's just an invented number posted on a pompey fans site by a pompey fan, notoriously prone to exaggerating attendance figures.

The total attendance was 32,201, as reported at the time by both the Portsmouth Evening News and the Liverpool Echo. So, you expect us to believe that there were only 17,000 Liverpool fans there when they were reigning champions and their average home gate that season was more than 37,500? Dream on. For comparison, their home gate v Southampton that season was 41, 575.

Even on pompey fans sites that number keeps going up and that match was 40 years ago. A few years ago, you were claiming it was 12,000. In future, you'll be trying to bump it up even more. At the rate you're going, there will have been no Liverpool fans there at all.

The more you lie, the less anyone believes anything you post and your lies have been found out on numerous occasions now. Little Pompey, forever in our shadow. Your last 30,000 home average was nearly 70 years ago, when Fratton was packed with sailors.

Local rag said 12,000 planned to travel, but you know best, 15,000 easily beats your average home attendance for 32 years between 1970-2001 (bar 3 seasons, none of which made 16,000)

So Liverpool had 17,000 scattered round the other 3 sides of Anfield? Yeah right

Your lot once took 60 to Wigan in the PL

My cynicism over this has led me to another discovery. Pompey fans have been tampering with attendance figures of old matches online. If you go back to the original newspaper reports, you find that they've since added a few thousand more on to a lot of their attendances figures. It's probably what 130 spends the rest of his time doing.

Lets say 4,000 in the top,

3,500 in the middle

plus 1,000 neutrals




so, even being generous, I can't get you up to 50,000 tickets, and that is what the official line is, no club has ever sold 50k for a final at Wembley

Southampton supporters demand more JPT final tickets
Southampton
Southampton supporters' organisation The Saints Trust claims the club should have received more Johnstone's Paint Trophy final tickets.

The Saints have sold their full allocation of 44,000 tickets for the game at Wembley against Carlisle.
United received 24,000 tickets, and by Thursday had sold just over half.

So according to you Carlisle had 22,500 fans, course they did.
15,000 Lower
3,500 Middle
4,000 Top tier

When in fact they sold roughly 12,500, 10,000 less

It's hard to say how many they've tampered with but, basically, it means you can't believe any pompey attendance figures posted online any more.

Even on here, I've noticed they've changed some of the figures. Their average for 1949/50, for example, has gone up to over 37,000 when before it was 36,000. I guess hacking a site like this can't be very difficult for someone who's that obsessed:

So we agree Little Pompey selling 40,000 tickets in 2019 is not a record figure
Saints sold 44,000, and had around 10,000 more easy

1976 Final attendance of 100,000 may/may not be a made up figure, but we can't prove either way.

Whereas 2008 Final you can easy see at least 126 empty seats (on 46 sec Kanu goal) in Club Wembley/Cardiff sections which only really covers less than 10% of capacity. Add the min 300 seats segregation, no way could attendance be more than 89,600.(generous)
So the official attendance of 89,974 is definitely a made up figure, your words

So we can agree 1976 now beats 1939 (It's in the Record books)your words

3 facts therefore need editing


You answered this with,

"How many Carlisle fans in the middle and top sections?"

We're in agreement though that 3 of your facts need editing, Yes?

Sadly for you Southampton haven't been as low as div 4

I know we've only been there 3 times in last 60 years but how about we compare the last 3 div 3 average attendances:

Southampton
22,161
20,982
18,052


Blue few
18,223
17,917
12,232

Seems like we rock up when required somewhat more than you!

The capacity wasn’t 15,200 in 1990.

130, I am genuinely a bit intrigued about the basketball thing. Was this why Alan Ball left as manager, him not being too tall and all that?

It's the reason Soton fans give for having sub 15k attendances in the top flight. The problem is the 'facts' don't fit the stats.

Alan Ball was a giant of a man, he actually won us promotion, what did he win at your club?
