    Were there 6000 fans up there? I only ask because the rest of the ground was empty yet the club reckons there was 7,090 fans inside Oakwell last night.</p>

    Nope.
    Empty up there too.

    I think there was 7090 there last night.
    It's the 6884 on Saturday I have a problem with.

    On the other hand - they may have counted Dirk's individual pubic lice in the attendance figures?

    Well, they're hardly likely to overstate it are they?

    The attendance figures all season have been weird to say the least

    For example, doncaster practically filled our away end which holds 6000 yet fetched less than 3,000 apparently.

    Same old discussion..do they count all season ticket holders as being there?

    £17 last night in Ponty. Far too dear I'm afraid

    Anyone who can convince me there were more people in the ground last night than there were on Saturday is some kind of genius.

    There is only one explaination:
    Cain, Wathred & Heaney were in charge to the turnstiles.

    Hmm

    How would you compare Saturday's crowd with last night's? Cos obviously that theory wouldn't apply to Cup games. The two crowds announced were almost identical.

    It showed more movement and creativity than anyone in a red shirt in the second half

    We noticed that - better movement from the bread bag than from Nardiello.

    Yes, but I mean they wouldn't automatically count the season ticket holders on Saturday as they don't get into FA Cup games free... I must say I got the impression that there were more there on Saturday than last night, but I don't pay overdue attention to it.

    How many season ticket holders do we have? Any idea?

    And in turn more movement from nardiello than from Richards

    who as usual missed chances and showed no moments of inspiration

    Interestingly

    It was announced that 140 Gillingham fans had attended the game. I had already counted them and only got 130. My daughter made it 132 and my nephew 131. Yes, the game was that good.

    RE: Interestingly

    So at any one point approxinately 8/140 (5.7%) to 10/140 (7.1%) were pissing, shitting, or pie buying, perhaps?</p>

    Or ...

    ... having it off with each other in the disabled bogs?

    I wish I could use a calculator too.

    No - it wasn't that

    I did take the pissers into account by watching the exits for about 5 minutes after my tally. I think the truth of the matter may be entirely more sinister
