Outrageous! but other than that glaring error nice to see how often BHAFC were mentioned
The Large One

Question: Can the attendance figure for the Palace play-off match be legitimately included towards league season average - or is it regular 23 home matches only?

The figures seem to be incorrect , our highest crowd , average home attendance for the previous season , number of fans travelling to away games. Needs a MAJOR investigation into the announced figures.

Didn't we get over 30,000 against Wolves?

30,003 for the wolves game if i remember rightly

Hotdogs, extra onions
Regarding the 30,003 attendance for Wolves. I contacted the Football League and they answered in the negative to that figure!
So, they must receive the 'actual' attendance figure as opposed to what we are told which is the 'tickets sold' figure.

Hi,
Please be aware that the following page has an omission.
http://www.football-league.co.uk/page/AttendanceStats/0,,10794,00.html
Under Attendances it states
- 10 clubs achieved at least one match attendance higher than 25,000 last season. Two clubs, (Sheffield Wednesday and Derby County) achieved match attendances over 30,000
Please be advised that Brighton and Hove Albion achieved an attendance of 30,003 v Wolves on 4th May 2013 as can be verified from the following link

Thank you for your email.
However the figure we have for that match is the official attendance.

So are the average attendance figures 'real' or based on the number of tickets sold?

The fact that we have nearly doubled our average away attendance is impressive. I wonder what the average away attendance would have been if we were in the championship but still at Withdean

Absolutely amazing and fantastic then that we managed an average of over 26000! Must be our highest ever average.

Which is even more amazing as we are based at the far end of the country so have further to travel than most clubs

Up the Albion!
Posh the most popular away fixture in the division. A massive thumbs up for terracing then.
Amazing we had over 1000 average traveling away, but were 68th in the list of our away fans as % of home attendance. The seats at the Amex are too comfy. Big obvious theme is Leeds are a big club in terms of support. Fancy that . . .
