Anyone see over 1500 at Newcastle. Very good crowd.'"
Yes, I saw that. No idea what's going on there. If I remember rightly most of their attendances last season were less than 200. To suddenly achieve 1,500 is some achievement. There were a few quite encouraging attendances - not least our own which was far higher than I expected. The new boys at Coventry also pulled in over 700 which isn't bad at all.
.
I enjoyed the game v York. Although I can't get to every home game I do get to many of them but that was the first time I've seen us win at Cougar Park since we beat Swinton in the league last season. I was beginning to think I was becoming a jinx. Nice to see some real enthusiasm in defence in this game and it did the trick. Not quite firing on all cylinders but very encouraging and it made the evening in the Boltmakers all the more enjoyable   |

We played it in the afternoon last year and fans complained then too. I can't remember playing in the afternoon the year before but I could be wrong.
As for it being the right call, I assume that if you had the stats you would show them so it's only your "gut feel". My gut feel is you're wrong ![]()
What stats do you need? Some on here were saying we will average around 500 this season but were over 900 already.... 2 Cougars fans missed the game, in life you can't please everyone all the time. You have to do whats best to make the most cash and pay the staff... if we had played at 7.30 infront of 650 who makes up the lost income?

Just out of curiosity, and pushing the illogic of the Friday KO time to one side, why wasn't the fixture organised for either Saturday, Sunday (all the shops are shut), or even Monday?
It's not that there are 2 games over the holiday period.
Also, back to Friday, Bradford City were playing away but as mentioned in a different post, we have the better sport but seem to be afraid of promoting it.

We had a good win, good family atmosphere, lots of people made the game - shame a few couldnt. That'll do me.

I have only been wrong once and thats because I thought I was wrong but I was wrong I was right!
Petty authoritarians aren’t man enough to challenge the actions of a person face to face; instead they incite a forum of rumour, innuendo and half truths, and impose rude sanctions to discourage those who dare question fairness.

I would have thought the obvious stats would be Good Friday attendance for the last few years.
Quote: HalifaxCougar "Some on here were saying we will average around 500 this season but were over 900 already.... '"
We've played one match and you're quoting averages already ![]()
Deep down we both know an evening kick off would have been a lower crowd?
I dont remember any evening crowds being that great for a few years never mind one in this league with 30 away fans.
To end I think its clear to say, decent start to the season played in front of a great crowd. Roll on Hemel except I can't make it. |

We'll agree to disagree on that one.
Quote: HalifaxCougar "I dont remember any evening crowds being that great for a few years never mind one in this league with 30 away fans.'"
I don't make a point of memorising crowds but I do recall some well attended friday nights and some quiet ones too.

I thought it was a great start to the season in front of a much bigger crowd than I expected. I'll send you a text from Hemel with the result |

Your making the high night crowds up. Infact some night ones v Halifax recently have not been much more than Friday's!
Yes it's a shame about the Hamel game, It just doesn't suit me kicking off at half 2 so I am having to miss it. Bit annoying and I may not renew my away season ticket because of it but I shall see.
Move further forward I may have to miss Newcastle too as I have a feeling I will be over the legal driving limit due to a massive game in Glasgow the day before, as were friends now and you are sending me score updates any chance you can pick me up and take me to Newcastle?

You could take the HALO option but without the LO. Can get a bit messy though. |
