Crowd Today..

The end of the parachute payments might have something to do with it.

We get our last parachute payment at the end of this season. Can't say I reckon we'll see any of it invested into the team though.

Is that because you can't spend money twice ?

I don't understand your comment.

Am I wrong in thinking we get the final parachute payment at the end of THIS season?

19,608...bigger than Swansea vs Cardiff in their MASSIVE derby earlier in the season, for a club thats won twice at home in over a year lol.

How come other clubs can afford to invest with lower gates..and we can't?

Liberty stadium capacity 20532, Swansea 3 Cardiff 2 attendance 18,209. Now when you take out the reduced away allocation because of previous trouble that suggest it's a sell out.

You really need to look into your facts before starting a thread like this.

they reduced the allocation by over 2k? really?

Yep, sounds right IIRC when they don't get the bottom tier and segregation are brought into it.

Boxing Day always throws up big crowds; people turning out with their grand-dad aunty and uncle etc.
The stat below proves it. Nearly 31,000 for a shite game like that!

Where were all those bums on seats when they were disappearing into administration?

19,608

I'd like to know how that number was calculated - Is it actual bums on seats or tickets sold? I suspect the latter but believe they should know the former for health and safety reasons.

I think they do it by tickets sold. There was no where near 19k there yesterday.

Watching the team does hae its draw backs i suppose.

[AthleticoSpizz]

I would've guessed it at 20k (thanx to the 3k swansea fans.............who I must say who were more fun than their Cardiff neighbours were this time last year) ........


Reading FC in understated crowd figure tax-dodge scandal

[Harpers So Solid Crew]

How many times does it need saying that it is tickets sold that they declare, and they also know how many came through the turnstiles, again this has often been explained on here, and i think you have made the almost same reply in the past Forbes, are you going a bit senile??


Good to see LI have a larger crowd yesterday!!!!
