bigfella Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 Do you think if we were in League One we'd still be getting 52,000 at home? All hypothetical. We're not and they are so f**k them. Let's not forget the 8k v Walsall a few weeks ago. This, gimmick crowd, back to the usual 17,000 missing next match, still 3rd and being made to work for it in the 3rd division, a league they said, again, they would piss. They must go up or they will be gone for a long time, simple, and today they limped to a win, again, can’t go on all season. Sunderland have always had gimmick crowds. Their record home attendance of 75,000 was preceded by a crowd of 10,000 and followed by one of 14,000. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

brummie Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 Celebrating the record attendance in League One ffs. Although pre-rebrand, we got 48,000 at home to Bournemouth in the Third Division (in about 1972). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
geordiesteve710 Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 Celebrating the record attendance in League One ffs. Although pre-rebrand, we got 48,000 at home to Bournemouth in the Third Division (in about 1972). Just had a similar discussion with my father in law. Ended up with him saying "but that was division three, not league one." It was rebranded to league 1 about 10 years ago. They're wanking themselves silly over having a record attendance for a league that has only "existed" (in that name) for 10 years. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoot Posted December 27, 2018 Share Posted December 27, 2018 To be fair, 46,000 in League One is pretty good like. It's a great crowd for a 3rd tier game. And although they'll wank themselves off over the attendance today, they fail to realize all the empty seats in every other game they've played at home this season.

Scoreboard82 Posted December 27, 2018 Share Posted December 27, 2018 Pretty sure the Sheffield derby had 49000 there on boxing day 1979 and it's the 3rd tier whatever you want to call it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris_R Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 Yeah their crowd on boxing day is magnificent, but it's not a 3rd tier record. They can't just draw that line wherever they want. Did we claim our 52,000 crowd was a record for the 2nd tier ffs? It'd have been the same logic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benwell Lad Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 Claiming that a one off gimmick attendance, which was campaigned for on social media etc, is "magnificent support" is a bit misleading really. It's no different to the spike you see in a lower league team's crowd the week before they play a big team in the cup or a non-league club before a big FA vase game. The 8,000 who turned out for a midweek FA cup match at the SoL last month are probably more representative of their magnificent support. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

madras Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 I wonder what the largest difference in attendance is for one club at home in one season ? Obviously without playing behind closed doors etc. Chelsea in the 70s/80s had a reputation for going from 12,000 one week then 30,000 the next.

Optimistic Nut Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 Not long until they have a competitive fixture against a side that normally plays the likes of Blyth Spartans & Ashington in the Northumberland Senior Cup. That’s why there’ll be a big Newcastle following, it’s rubbing their noses in it. It’ll be embarrassing if they have over 10k home fans there. Not a chance would I even contemplate going if the tables were reversed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They went from 10,000 v Sheff Wed to 75,000 v Derby County, back down to 14,000 for their next home game all in the space of a month back in 1933. Always been a fickle lot.
