Not a rare occurance if neither side has sold out it's allocation it happens with the football play offs.

This is why events unnerve me.:



Quote: knockersbumpMKII "When they show the NFL Wembley game on the beeb the presenter (Jake Humphrey I believe) always bang on about 90K fans being there as to make out that it was so popular when in 2010 only 55700 turned up with a large portion of seats covered over in the lower tiers.y'"


the attendance for that game was around 85,000.

the first few rows are always covered over for NFL games at Wembley because players and officials stood pitchside completely block the view from there.

look at any NFL stadium, there are never seats at pitch level, always a 6 foot perimeter wall

my bad, it was 83,941, in 2011 it was only just over 75K, however my point was all sports want to big themselves up with 'it's a sell out' when to the casua observer it isn't.

It's tickets sold which count as the attendance, not actually used.

Freedom for supporters of the government, only for members of one party - however numerous they may be - is no freedom at all. freedom is always and exclusively for one who thinks differently. Rosa Luxemburg, 'Die russiche Revolution'.:Black Backgrounds/Zoot.gif



'The Observer' gives the attendance yesterday as 79180, which doesn't seem too bad to me.

Quote: maurice "The club Wembley seats, occupied or not are included in the gate declared I understand ie the attendance is inflated'"


I told you they were included didn't I. This means our showpiece attracts about 62000 paying fans these days, well done RFL for ripping the sport apart.

"I know guys that pay £25 for a facial up north" "If that season review DVD was an A-level entry, it'd fail":15996.jpg



I'm not sure how the RFL are supposed to make people go to the match. Tickets are available cheaply months and months in advance, and there's plenty of deals out there too. What the RFL can't do is stop people making excuses as to why they haven't gone when moaning about the attendance. See also internationals.

(Not everyone can afford to go and some work weekends, not a problem with those people at all!)

I thought it was a poor crowd yesterday, number of reasons will be given by Redhall....they will miss off peoples lack of confidence in the sports governing body though!.

I was surprised at :-
a) the low number of neutrals
b) the low number of Leeds fans remaining with 10 minutes to go
