Although Ashley Out campaign seem to be suggesting that the police were told the attendance was 47k, not to sure how they would know yet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUPERTOON Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 Anyone know the next phase of this then? How realistic is boycotting Swansea? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bada Bing Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 Unrealistic, ticket sales are reasonably strong for Swansea. Today was helped by poor general sale. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmojorisin75 Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 there must be a legal HSE requirement to record the actual attendance, whether the club are obliged to make this public i don't know but for safety reasons they'd have to know the exact number through the door Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really hope we get confirmation on that. Over 20k below capacity would be a brilliant effort. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

magorific Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 With the best will in the world, there were way more than 31k there. I reckon around 40k. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Open_C Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 Not to piss on any parades, but the pictures I've seen from in-game appear to show way more people there than the pictures in this thread, like It's great that things are starting to happen at last but I suspect that the pictures being posted as representative are probably about as trustworthy as NUFC's claims of 47k.

frankpingel Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 As an absent season ticket holder I'm interested in how attendees felt about the boycott and specifically the numbers involved. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 TBH part of me (and I suspect many others) thought this would fall flat on its face because, for better or worse our support, but I think having watched and seen the evidence it can be classed very much as a success when you think the idea was only formed a couple of weeks ago. Be interested to see what's next on the cards. Was weird watching it on the TV with a ticket in my wallet but I'm pleased to have done my little bit.

Sima Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 Injury time so doesn't hold much sway. (Looks like 45:00 as they can't show any injury time on the boards) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
