Guest michaelfoster Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 Number of fans who have visited SJP on match days this season, which averages out at 48,750. Not bad considering the majority of the away teams have brought nowhere near the 3,000 away allocation (only Hull, Man Utd, Liverpool, Sunderland, Arsenal, Chelsea & Sunderland have brought decent numbers iirc), others have been woefully short and the fact we are in the middle of a credit crunch. Since stadium was expanded to 50k 07/08: 975,093 (Average of 51,321) 06/07: 963,036 (Average of 50,686) 05/06: 988,609 (Average of 52,032) 04/05: 985,040 (Average of 51,844) 03/04: 987,358 total (Average of 51,966) 02/03: 986,479 total, (Average of 51,920) 01/02: 976,079 total (Average of 51,373) 00/01: 974,874 total (Average of 51,309) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leazes1986 Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 Could and would have been higher if it wasn't for a certain fat idiot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frazzle Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 Could and would have been higher if it wasn't for a certain fat idiot. He would've taken up two seats max in my opinion, its no excuse. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

manorpark Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 HUGE attendances for years (2nd largest club ground in UK most of the time, still 3rd biggest). HUGE amounts of sales in club shops, etc, for years. HUGE sponsorship deals. HUGE media coverage for years. HUGE income/turnover, for years (between 3rd largest and 5th largest in UK, for many years). HUGE world-wide fanbase, for years. Therefore . . . we are one of the biggest clubs in the world . . . (undoubtedly) WHAT HAVE "THEY" DONE WITH ALL THAT, YEAR AFTER YEAR???? WHERE IS THE "ENDLESS" COLLECTION OF TROPHIES??? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stu Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 Has anyone thought about starting a thread about this season's attendances before...? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

EDIT: At least the original thread was decent enough to credit the source of the stats As cp40 had said though, this thread had become about "The BIGGEST failures in World Football". The immense mysteries of which are surely worth discussing. What we have 'achieved' is clearly impossible! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cp40 Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 acording to the Legends tonight, if we are relegated, we will be the best supported side ever relegated, the next highest was manchester united with an average of 42,000 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lets hope (looking on the bright side) we get promoted next season, with the highest ever Second Division ('Championship') crowds. It will still be another 'unwanted' record though!

Yes it is, 54k ish, crazy really, but apparently our fans only turned up when KK came the first time. It really is a crying shame for the fans what's happened to this club not just this season but over the last 50 so years, we should be reguarily challenging for trophies as we were in at the turn of the 20th century and in the 1950's. The club has failed it's supporters big time and consistently. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
