Brace yer self ............some of this could happen!

[Hiney]

I think my answer is a bit fuller

But mine made sense

 

[Working class pride]

But mine made sense

So did mine. You see you cant get 30,000 if the ground doesnt hold it (as the goldstone couldnt for most of div 1) and at that time gates nationally were way down. Also have you found that graph that someone else posted yet?

 

[Guerrero]

There's a graph?

Wow!
This is pretty exciting for a Sunday evening.

If there's a pie chart I'm off for a ****.

Rhymes with spank....

Those goalposts you keep moving. Can you stop now please, it's getting ridiculous.

No its called facts with logic and content, often mistaken by those who dont want to follow it as moving goal posts when it doesnt suit them

Keep saying that often enough and you might end up believing it.

I'm off to spend some time with my family. Toodle-loo

Average attendance for the FOUR seasons in Division 1 were

79/80 24,745 (Arsenal 33,596) (capacity 33,500)
80/81 18,984 (Arsenal 32,480) (capacity started at 24,000 but rose to 31,000)
81/82 18,244 (Arsenal 25,589) (capacity 28,800)
82/83 14,662 (Arsenal 24,153) (capacity 28,800)

 

[El Presidente]

8 in div 3, one in Div 4

THREE of those were Div 3 SOUTH

 

[Frutos]

The SPAG in there is bloody appalling.

Our average crowds since we entered The Football League in 1920:

Just for information. No doubt WCP will be all over this, coming up with excuses for why we averaged 8,386 in a season when we reached the division play-offs.

Tremendous value from Tim again. Keep up the good work

 

[Bold Seagull]

Has anyone mentioned the number of typos? I couldn't be bothered to read it if the author can't be bothered to edit it.

 

[bobby baxter]

Hope so....might not have to put up with his crap....do Whitehawk have a forum?

They do, try "hawks ultras"

 

[Del Fenner]

Welsh Pirates Of the Caribbean, there's a spinoff for you, boyo.

According to SEAGULLS! The Story of Brighton...

Up to 1993, we broke the 30k mark on 21 occasions over a span of 15 different seasons.

So twenty - one 30k + gates out of 2,073 home matches (to the end of 92/93) = 1%

Yes, but I was talking about LEAGUE games.

The Cup games will always attract bigger crowds, depending on the opposition

I was backing up your point that 30k crowds were incredibly rare despite WCP going on and on about them.

He's an ignorant, ill-informed ****, whichever way you dress up the stats.

El Pres, I thought the Arsenal attendance in 1979 was around 28,000 as the turnstile counter 'malfunctioned', in fact I thought the irony of our top flight stay was we never got a 30,000 crowd.
