Bully is right, weather put me off. Plus the fact that both teams were injury ravaged, so I thought it would be a low scoring slug-fest on a small boggy pitch with me miles from the action on a bleak crumbling terrace getting cold and soaked. I opted for the (crap) Radio Leeds commentary while I cooked a Sunday roast for me and the Mrs as she watched Wimbledon.

Well Belly what a sad loss to the diplomatic service you are.

Always makes me laugh when someone reckons they can count the crowd themselves.

Most clubs (in lots of sports) do this counting "tickets sold" (or given away), rather than the actual number attending. Although I think that for official purposes eg Safety organisations, they do have to reveal the actual number of people attending. And I think IMG work on actual numbers as well (?)

We probably do it ourselves. Our opening league match v Bradford was quoted as a 7221 sellout, but I'm not sure there were quite that many in the ground. There seemed a few too many empty seats in the new stand.

Local derby, so still have plenty time to get home and settled in your chosen venue prior to 8:00pm ko.
