3,485 is the average for the visit of Widnes...what say you for this weekend coming?

I say

LOWER!

Will be lucky to get 1500 I reckon

Lower, I reckon around 1700-2000.

I bet it's announced as 1982 or something my shy of 2000 but actual attendance will be closer to 1300.

Unless I am being unfair to widnes fans who will probably make up half the crowd.

Teams should hate coming to London, not be able to play here with their fans nearly outnumbering us

We'll be doing the 3 hour round trip again and to all the home games until the end of the season although I've got to the stage where I don't even think we can beat Widnes. 1,999 will be the crowd.

Depends how many Widnes bring down. We will have 800 of our own fans there

Agreed. If Widnes fans are belt-tightening after the bank holiday it may only just sneak over the 1000 mark.

One stand half full of Home fans + 300 scousers behind the sticks

Bonus ball- Easy to get a beer-Maybe the bar will be half staffed which reduces the crowd somewhat significantly!

Its only a single ticket for the scousers as they will nick a car to get home

No matter how many staff the bar has, they all line up against the wall and do bugger all so crowd size plays no role in how long it takes to get served.

Reckon 1455 but crowd given as 2012

1,400 tops.

I can never predict what will happen with our club and it's attendances, but I am never sure about these who claim that attendances are falsified? yes when I spent some time training in media I saw that newspapers not sold and returned by newsagents was sold to chip shops and then the money was reinvested into newspaper sales to raise sales figures and then fees you could then charge for advertising, but with a sporting club would you not have to pay taxes and VAT on attendance figures? so why raise those costs with false figures, could it be season ticket sales & holders not attending are taken in the figure published?

I don't think figures have been wrong since Gus has been in charge.


However, there have been one or two times over the last few years where Ive thought they may have been wrong (upwards and downwards, in fact).

The club had three figures for attendance - target actual and announced. The announced figures were always higher than the actual - lower than the target. I don't know if this is still the practice - but looking at the crowd numbers, with the announced, and it certainly appears to be so.
