Realistic Crowds

[Eastside Urchin]

don't think there was that many there,i would of thought at least 2'500 though,the banks at either end of the ground were always packed and everyone went to the game

[coupwotcoup]

The record books have always said that HX best crowd was against Chelmsford in the FA Cup 1967. Not sure of the actual attendance though.

[Eastside Urchin]

i remember playing chelsmford a few years ago in the fa cup,probably around 12-15 years ago,they bought down a few hundred if my memory is correct,not sure what the crowd was,it may of only been 6-700 but it was a lot more than we were used to getting,the winners went on to play barnet in the first round proper(i think)

we lost in last ten-fifteen minutes

Why Bury? Of all the games neutrals may come to, that one has to be the least likely. Reason being, every other team is closer to Canvey.

I took this from an old post on the AFC Sudbury forum.

If the figures are roughly accurate then Bury and Sudbury will potentially be one of the better supported sides next season. Not sure about how many of their fans travel.

I reckon if we average 200 - 300 that would be good

[Ribbit]

And?

 

Edit - Oh, sorry.

Makes Romford's average of 180 look quite healthy.

180 for an ESL side is not bad. Reckon you would be approaching 250-300 if you were in Ryman one.

I re-jigged it for a reason!

I've taken out Hendon and replaced them with Romford. There's 22 teams there, which one doesn't belong? Presumably there's only 22 teams in the RLN.

[coupwotcoup]

Would be more if we had our own ground...but I am not breath-holding...Hornchurch had the best with 400 (best against us 702).

[coupwotcoup]

Now that constitution is definitely on my wish list!!

[Eastside Urchin]

not knocking romford,but the reason why their average gates were so high were because of the kids coming for training etc before the games and their parents in turn having to pay,saying that it does show good sense to do that

*Whistles*

 

Didn't realise there were 23 teams in our league.

[Eastside Urchin]

806 is still a decent crowd,is that what you had last season,what was your biggest gate,was it dagenham or grays

[Ribbit]

Daggers. Just. 1458. Grays was 1445.

[YELLOW]

Dagenham I think, slightly ahead of Grays.

[Eastside Urchin]

how many did each club bring down,bet you had to shut all the shops and lock your grannies up when the grays pikeys came to the island

[coupwotcoup]

Cannot argue with that fellah...and Zody deserves credit for doing it..even if he is a pain in the butt!!

Shame we ain't got a few bob to make things better on the pitch, but we all live in hope...

[Ribbit]

I'm not good at remember who brought what down... Forest Green or Alty brought the least though! I'd guess and say York/Halifax/Accy brought the most. Obviously excluding Daggers and Grays. I'm sure Stevenage turned up too.

 

Not that I can back any of that up with memories.

[Eastside Urchin]

did drink play a part in that ribbit??
