Suspect that the prices payed by fans has also gone up?
Wonder then if Income is therefor up or down?
Tory mantra "more from less"

 

Thing is, though, the likes of Hull, Derby, Leicester and Leeds can get away with the fall in attendees.

We however, cannot.

 

Agreed Merlin, Looking at the 6 biggest losses we are in with 4 big teams and the other ones on parachute payments.

 

The Hull one is after coming down from Prem. What percentage did ours drop after 2 seasons out of Prem, just curious like, any idea Gord/anybody.

 

97/98 18,449
99/00 15,412

down 16.5%, we had a good year though in 99/00.

 

Cheers Gord. Aye it were one of best seasons entertainment wise IMO.

 

Thumping Pompey 6-0 one week, and getting spanked 6-1 by Ipswich the next.

Great season. Craig Hignett, Darren Barnard, Nicky Eaden, Neil Shipperley, Bruce Dyer... Mike Sheron, and Robbie Van Der Laan.

 

Only Man U in the whole country scored more league goals than us. Our top scorers were:

Hignett 21
Barnard 15
Shipperley 15
Sheron 11

22,650 inside Oakwell that season for a league game an all.

 

Which game? The City one we won 2-0? Curtis and Higgy ont scoresheet?

I used to sit in the North Stand back then, for the odd game. Back when they gave us half of it.

 

Yeah that one, still the highest attendance inside an all seater Oakwell.

******* mental in tarn that day.
