Ok as we are obsessed lets gets some facts.

You averaged 24k + when in the premiership, but have been hemorrhaging fans ever since (OK last year you managed to allow more away fans in to get an extra 400 on the stats)

2010-11 Npower League Championship 15,351
2009-10 Coca-Cola League Championship 14,945

So is/was your fan base made up of JCL's or are they die hards who don't go any more?

Can you kindly help me on this one please as I have been scratching my head all season?

I see it as we bottomed out in 2009-2010, and now are on the upwards curve.
Good work Caveman, great stats.

 

[Caveman]

Yeah but that's still not true attendances as they include stay away STH's.

True and worrying for the troglodytes.

 

[GoldWithFalmer]

I see it as we bottomed out in 2009-2010, and now are on the upwards curve.
Good work Caveman, great stats.

But the overall trend remains down...well down

So the ones that no longer go are what exactly? If they come back they are JCL's?

So if your attendance rises above 15k you have JCLs is this a fair statement for the future?

 

[GoldWithFalmer]

Besides how many of those average gates season by season include factors such as 9,000 away fans

I'll be honest, I hate puns. I mean really, really hate puns. I think they're the lowest form of wit, lower than a snake's belly kind of low so I'll leave you with a question:

What is the collective term for a Palace crowd:

a) an ennui
b) a wishful thought
c) a taxi-full

Answers on a postcard to someone who gives a shit.

You are so EIGHTful at times Joey, no pun intended.
P S - whats a ennui ?

That includes bring a mate for a tenner, free ticket with a mobile top up, Groupon and Adults using kids at night games. That has raised it by 400, well worth the posters around South London.

 

[GoldWithFalmer]

Carte D'Or please

This was my 4000 th post-brilliant

I think the word he'll be looking for is an OCTET.

Absolutely, they will slowly drift back with a bit of success, but aint that what happens at all clubs at our level ?

Hate to break it to you, but so far this season you are down .... 14,971

No wonder why you want the 9000 Stains massive.

(We are above you in this league table too : English League Championship Team Attendance Statistics - 2011-12 - ESPN Soccernet ).

Thats fine and I accept that, but too many Pala*se fans critising our support when they need to have a little closer look at home.

True-can't wait for our expansion to 30,500 we have 10,500 fans yet to grace the Amex

An embarrassment?

A delusion?

An apathy?

You are Statto, come on, admit it

I think that comes from jumping from 6500 up to 20,000 plus in 4 months.
I don't think its criticising as such,its just a dig at some of you who won't except that some of them may be " fairweather" supporters.

Will we get a bigger allocation ?

 

[GoldWithFalmer]

Will we get a bigger allocation ?

Not overly sure what the eventual away capacity will be,but i would has a guess at 4,500

 

[Seagull on the wing]

Will we get a bigger allocation ?

Only if you can act civilised and don't go on a wrecking spree ....padded seats are expensive unlike your wooden boards!
