Horse Posted April 18, 2008 Share Posted April 18, 2008 Will they give the actual figure who turn up or include all the season tickets to give a false picture? Would have to laugh if less then 10,000 turn up but it is given as 16,421. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MackaysCentreSpot Posted April 18, 2008 Share Posted April 18, 2008 Actual bums on seat attendance 13,500 Attendance figures given including ST holders even if not there which is the norm with any club. Over 13,500 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MackaysCentreSpot Posted April 18, 2008 Share Posted April 18, 2008 So technically they should not really call it "attendance" as this is misleading. Maybe if they called it "seats sold" as this figure would then cover the ST holders as their seats are sold for every game as we all know even if they are empty.

bean counter Posted April 18, 2008 Share Posted April 18, 2008 because we are bottom six. Our position in the table should not determine how we declare attendance figures. You only want to see a reduced number so you can say " see what they have done to the club , see how the supporters are turning their back on the club because of them " Everyone knows that the numbers of people physically in attendance from here to the end of the season is likely to go down. Thats a natural result of having a poor season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest casper Posted April 18, 2008 Share Posted April 18, 2008 I won't be there and I probably won't be at any of the other games this season and if they don't employ a proper manager I won't be renewing my season ticket.

topcat Posted April 18, 2008 Share Posted April 18, 2008 The last time we played them around this stage of the year only 6,200 saw us slip from 2nd to 3rd on Sat 11 Apr 1992 as we drew at home with Saint Mirren. http://www.londonhearts.com/scores/games/19920411.html People may have been more concerned with the upcoming ill-fated Scottish Cup Semifinal replay against Airdrie. 10,164 Saw Hearts Beat Saint Mirren at the end of Januay 2001 at a time when,like today, we were mired in mid table mediocrity and Saint Mirren were 2nd bottom. http://www.londonhearts.com/scores/games/20010131.html I reckon there will be a few more than that but not too many more So I'll guess 11,164 Not enough to make the place feel full but enough to make it feel busy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sked21 Posted April 18, 2008 Share Posted April 18, 2008 If we are getting beat or drawing at half time many will get up and leave. Even more will follow after 10/15 minutes of the second half if it is still the same. There will be funerals taking place tomorrow that will be 'jumping' in comparison to The Castle.

Des' Dad Posted April 18, 2008 Share Posted April 18, 2008 Disnae matter how many are actually there, the official attendance will be over 13,000 because of the way hearts count ST's whether they attend or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deejtee Posted April 18, 2008 Share Posted April 18, 2008 Will be there as may more than you think but with no enthusiasm at all. Paid for it and something to do with my son. Won't be putting myself in this position next year if frail is manager and it involves watching absolute no talents like Clum. I watched Man U recently live which highlights the .... we watch and the gulf in management skills. There has to be a compromise between these two extremes.

Today Roman reckoned Sir Alex was about 75 and would have had no problem being called Fergie by his players before he was entitled, or was at least when he was inexperienced. That was in response to a Shareholders comment about Frail being called Shaggy and had no respect from the players. Needless to say that was another one that didn't get a favourable response from those who heard it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

portobellojambo1 Posted April 18, 2008 Share Posted April 18, 2008 I reckon the total number of persons inside the ground will be around 13,000, but the stated attendance will be much higher. Taking into account the number of freebies they seem to be throwing at youngsters to get them into the Roseburn (Stand) the attendance will probably be given as around 15,500 (ish).

inspector Posted April 18, 2008 Share Posted April 18, 2008 I'll be there. So will my son. And my mate and his son. Why? We're there to support Hearts. Done it for 40 years+ and hopefully 40 more years. Slag me if you want but I don't care who 'funds' us, the Hearts are in our blood and nothing will change that. Those who talk of boycotts I can understand your anger but talk of supporter's action(such as boycotts) never made a difference. The older supporters amongst us will remember the furore after we were beaten by Forfar in the Cup. The talk of turning Tynie into a carpark was rife. It was a real low for the club but we managed to bounce back. Hopefully this will happen again although I don't think we are as bad as those days.

Even with a Thesaurus and a dictionary I doubt if I could throw together a reply which would equate to the basis of the content of your post above.

Although he is right with a few of the things he says he doesn't do anything other than shout abuse at the players. 90 minutes non stop. Although respect to the guy as he is there every week and never leaves early. Just means all of us around him have to listen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My mind, given I originally looked at this when I got out of bed at 07:00 this morning, was thinking "why would people sitting in the wheatfield who might be considering giving up their ST's only go back if they were 100% convinced Doug46 from JKB was going to jail".
