How many of the 59,749 attended both days though? I'm sure the number of individuals who actually attended over the whole weekend would be a far more interesting figure.

6,000 tickets sold in Scotland doesn't necessarily mean 6,000 people. If they all attended both days that would be 3,000 people.

6000 tickets sold is 6000 tickets sold, end of story. Handwringing about how many were for what day and how many bought tickets for each day is mindless twaddle.

You buy a season ticket, you go one week and you are counted as attending, you go again the next week you are counted again, that is how it works.

Nope. Not at modern stadiums.

WTF has age of a stadium got to do with counting fans?

Modern one only count every other fan to dodge the taxman

That's easy. You divide the age of Murrayfield, in minutes by (the volume of concrete in the west stand in cubits / the weight of 23 Brazilian anacondas in pounds avoirdupois) = 17

(which is the number of actual paying customers).

WTF? Are you seriously saying that when you buy a season ticket – or pass - at Hull, you're only counted as attending one game, no matter how many you actually go to? Because I don't believe for one minute that that's the case.

Not sure how many season passes Hull has sold, but I believe it's in the throusands – and I don't believe the Hull posted attendance drops by Xthousand season ticket holders from the second home game on.,

I suspect he means that if you get a season pass, but don't go to one of the games for whatever reason, then you won't be counted in the attendance figures at that game rather than being counted as attending every game irrespective of if you go or not.

That (the idea not the post) makes no sense, surely fire, health and safety regs mean all stadia have to count attendance as accurately as possible?

Of course you're not counted if you're not there. Why would you be?

It is an "attendance" figure". It isn't an "attendance + season ticket holders" figure.

You'd think so wouldn't you but apparently not


clueless

you wouldn't be. Which is what I said.

(and technically, it would be attendance + non attending season ticket holders )

I dont know if what he implied was true or not, I don't know enough about how those things work but whooosh you lot missed his point completely.
Clueless? thats you big boy, considering what he said has absolutely nothing to do with what youre on about
