If the figures looked deflated I guess Newport would have something to say about that.

[QUOTE=cardiffred;2201194]I think the point was the attendance was higher than announced.[/QUOTE]

A bit like the Harrogate game in the last round,to be honest the last few years under the trust the attendances look about right not like the days under pryce,hamilton dickens etc.

[QUOTE=Stafford Red;2201242]Fans of all clubs question attendance, why should we be different.
The most probable explanation is the inclusion of, no show ST holders inclusion in league game figures distorting the appearance of the crowd.[/QUOTE]

Was there 900 seats empty in the Mold road for the Harrogate cup replay?

FFS, when we see a crowd of 4500 announced as 5000 it distorts the view we get at a cup game where there are fewer no shows.

Does my inclusion of an extra inclusion really make it thet illegible?

Yes I went, I didnt count them, why do you ask?

Re: Attendance???
 

I think the 350 Newport tickets are within a roofed stand - the additional surplus 600 if required are on open terracing. Information was blurted out by the match day presenters pre match / half time.

Somehow get the feeling that the 350 will be enough.



Some interesting attendance figures from the FA Cup second round ties this weekend.

For a National League team we are in reality on a par with many League 1 clubs.
Yet more evidence that given our resources and fanbase we really should be higher in the pyramid - surely with more paying supporters generating more food, drink, merchandise and sponsorship we should be able to take the next step up. The number of fans a club has doesn’t guarantee success but it’s got to be a significant factor, especially the lower down the leagues the club is.

In order of home gates of most clubs involved in the cup this weekend.

Lincoln City - 6,438
Plymouth Argyle - 5,984
Wrexham - 5,295
Tranmere Rovers - 4,701
Chesterfield - 4,537
Peterborough United - 3,750
Swindon Town - 3,654
Charlton Athletic - 3,249
Walsall - 3,140
Barnet - 2,826
Rochdale - 2,555
