Big Clubs - MY ARSE !! - 27k from blunts and 22k from shelikesheruddersfield and it was pay on the day..... we have far better support 30k + tarn fans on both visits to wembley
Re: Big Clubs - MY ARSE !! - 27k from blunts and 22k from shelikesheruddersfield What was the attendance at Cardiff, does anybody remember?
Re: Big Clubs - MY ARSE !! - 27k from blunts and 22k from shelikesheruddersfield Attendance: 55,419 but Swansea outnumbered us significantly.
Re: Big Clubs - MY ARSE !! - 27k from blunts and 22k from shelikesheruddersfield Think we had around 23,000 if memory serves me reight.
Re: Big Clubs - MY ARSE !! - 27k from blunts and 22k from shelikesheruddersfield I thought we took about 26,000 down to Cardiff?
Re: Big Clubs - MY ARSE !! - 27k from blunts and 22k from shelikesheruddersfield According to the Guardian 34,000 swansea fans. So must have been 21,000 reds. http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2006/may/28/newsstory.sport1
Re: Big Clubs - MY ARSE !! - 27k from blunts and 22k from shelikesheruddersfield Would love to know how many dem blunts took, bearing in mind the population of their city is 4 times that of our town, and they only have twice as many football clubs.
Re: Big Clubs - MY ARSE !! - 27k from blunts and 22k from shelikesheruddersfield The Guardian is wrong, we sold around 25k, half arsed journalism
Re: Big Clubs - MY ARSE !! - 27k from blunts and 22k from shelikesheruddersfield I thought that, I don't trust what people write in newspapers about 'smaller' clubs. Knew we took around 25//26,000
Re: Big Clubs - MY ARSE !! - 27k from blunts and 22k from shelikesheruddersfield Not sure how you think we took that many when our own club reported this 90 MINUNTE REPORT FROM THE MILLENNIUM STADIUM http://www.barnsleyfc.co.uk/page/NewsDetail/0,,10309~833870,00.html Our end was quite empty specially in the upper areas of the stands on either side of the pitch. No way in hell we took 25,000.
Re: Big Clubs - MY ARSE !! - 27k from blunts and 22k from shelikesheruddersfield Yeah I believe we took about 21k. We got hugely outnumbered which is to be expected from a city 40 miles down the road from the ground. Important thing is we won, but would rather we lost if we had taken the path Swansea have since.
Re: Big Clubs - MY ARSE !! - 27k from blunts and 22k from shelikesheruddersfield Barnsley - Swansea (at Millenium) was 55,419........much longer distance for Reds fans Barnsley - Cardiff (at Wembley) was 82,752 So these so-called massive teams who played this weekend......are they that massive? I've done the mathematics before, many times.................Barnsley have a support of ~14% per capita of population. Think Burnley are best supported per capita of population? Don't believe either Sheffield clubs get anywhere near this number.......although not sure abot Huddersfield (albeit well done)
Re: Big Clubs - MY ARSE !! - 27k from blunts and 22k from shelikesheruddersfield When I can be arsed I'll find the report off the official site that updated the tickets sales to 25k, I remember bragging to my pikey mate at the time that they could only muster 18k for the same trip. The ground itself only holds 72500 so after taking the sponsors tickets away there isn't 35k per team, no one gets over 50%.
Re: Big Clubs - MY ARSE !! - 27k from blunts and 22k from shelikesheruddersfield Cheers mate, i'm sure we took 25,000 down there! haha
Re: Big Clubs - MY ARSE !! - 27k from blunts and 22k from shelikesheruddersfield Aye it could have been we had 23,000 tickets but sold less, sounds reight that.
