attendance (definition by Oxford English Dictionary l)
NOUN

1.1count noun The number of people present at a particular place or event.

So, whoever is responsible - start publishing the ATTENDANCE NOT the paying customer figures. Or at least call it what it is. Attendance doesn’t mean empty bl0oDy seats.

Ours yesterday was actually 4,677 as the announced figure of 5,272 included 595 no shows

I just don't understand how 5 or 600 season tickets holders don't show up every home game.when thay played all that money out .i know people sometimes miss the odd match.because of other commitment's but it seems to be about the same figures every home game staying away.and especially how SJL got team playing and moving in right direction.you would think more no show's would be turning up?

It does seem strange,are they the same people not turning up I wonder.

[CFC91]

Is it ST or tickets in general? Assume if it was tickets in general then there is a lot of unused Comps, cheap ticket deals for kids etc that people may not use

I've asked that same question and if there had ever been checks to show the figure to be correct as it seems to me far too high to be right. AC says he'll make enquiries

I thought the kop sang us to victory, a lot around us were even joining in from the west stand.

I've always assumed it to be all issued tickets; including comps, hospitality etc, not necessarily just season ticket holders.

Bludddy hell.
I thought our turn styles were computerised. Can't our IT man provide management with a report of the number of times each ticket passes through as the season unfolds? I would have thought he could tell me exactly how many times my ticket has been used this season.

I'm fairly sure a report can easily be produced, having the will to do it has been the problem,


I remember checking mine online and it told me what time I entered the ground for each match

So the percentage usage of each seat should be a doddle?

Do you think there is a problem?

Does Ashley know if these season ticket holders who do not attend games actually exist?

You would have thought so, if the staff have the knowledge of how to do it.

I'm convinced the figure is an error.

He thinks they do

I'd love to know what management information is supplied for each Board meeting. It's a reflection of what actions they take.

One of the downsides of trying to encourage fans of the future. Cheap season tickets in the empty family sections must account for a fair few every game

There are many different reasons season ticket holders are not attending and I would habit a guess its not because they haven't noticed the improvement under Sir Jack. They have differing things gMy excuse is I work away 20 weeks a year and so miss a relative amount of matches because of this. I suppose I lose the benefit of the saving a season ticket gives you but I enjoy when I am home going to the match and being able to sit with my pals.

The 600 missing people is quite high however.
