Guest ElCid Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Literally no evidence that our crowds would drop by any significant margin like. Without Rafa I think they would drop, the did after the 2010 relegation but our good forum helped them lift up again. e.g. 36,944 first game against Reading, 38,813 against Leicester, 38,923 against QPR etc. Whether you consider that significant is a different matter. If we kept getting beat I think they would drop further below these levels. Agreed Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Second home game (third game of the season) was nearly 44k like, and that was on a Wednesday night. Not sure of the away numbers but there was a 7k increase on the back of one good win. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heron Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Saturday, Saturday, will make it all okay. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh! Are you actually expecting anything? Not really. Just living in hope. Oh. Like me going round telling everyone mila kunis is going to be hanging off mee chopper on the 26th. No evidence, but you live in hope. Aye. Only this requires more hope. It's not cause you're handsome either like. Just cause he's that much of a cunt. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

duo Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Literally no evidence that our crowds would drop by any significant margin like. If Rafa went they would - he symbolises the last hope of the club going anywhere under Ashley. However, doubt Ashley would loose much sleep over falling attendance given the TV money flying around these days. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris_R Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 There's a couple of issues here. Not every game is 'on the tele' and some people (like me) have zero interest in other teams. Not that I disagree by the way about walking away, I've done it before, but it's not as easy as you make out. You can't be looking very hard. They've all been on my television and none of them have cost me a single penny. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sempuki Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 There has been no response from Ashley’s camp and it is understood he is waiting until next month’s announcement on the Premier League’s new TV deal before making a decision. Whatever the outcome of this latest bid, there will be no cash windfall for manager Rafa Benitez to spend in this month’s transfer window. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I completely believe that, because I don't have a Kodi box either. I use my mobile phone. That's it. And I watch the match on the TV. I assume you have a phone? One that isn't a Nokia 3310?
