It was a very fortuitous victory for us as Batley certainly deserved something out of the game

I reckon that the crowd figure was about right tbh, some of you have been using Hull KR's calculator i guess icon_wink.gif

Given that the official capacity of the ground is 7500 where would the other 5267 people have gone??

Honestly, I find it hard to believe anyone could take the announced crowd figure seriously

Not sure how attendances are calculated. Who'd have thought we had 5k against Hunslet.

Batley chairman on TotalRL pretty much admits the figure was made up:

And is now saying it was actually 3,019:

I'm still not sure how you fit another 4,500 in, but at least it's more realistic than the initial figure, and not quite as ridiculous.

Quote: Batley "Believe it or not we try to declare accurate gates as best we can. The Press and media want a gate fig at half-time when clearly not had chance to check it so that is how we gave the fig. we did before looked at it properly'"

Translation: the figure given to the media was made up! a014.gif

Translation: 'We think the media and supporters who were there will just about buy a figure of 3019, and more importantly we can pay VAT on that figure'

You can't help but laugh at the idea that when they have to open more turnstiles, the "extra" operators for those turnstiles apparently don't have the ability to count.

I appreciate the automated counting may not work on those turnstiles, but are they really saying that those people couldn't have a clicker? Or even a pen and a pad to run a tally chart?

Honestly, who cares anymore. If they under-declared then so what? I'd rather the extra money was in Batley's pockets than the Revenue's.

Had they deliberately under-declared in order to avoid paying tax that'd be illegal. The Revenue collects money on our behalf to pay for public services for us all. If everyone evaded tax we'd end up like Greece. While I think money spent on Batley RLFC is a better idea than some things Government decides to spend money on I'd clubs played it by the book as I'm sure Batley did in this case.

Maybe if you add the 2 figures together you would get the true attendance.
