Football league attendance statistics to cheer everybody up

[Captain Haddock]

Weirdly I guessed the exact attendance for Wolves as it was about to be announced.

Didn't win the lottery that weeken though, dammit!

Regarding the 30,003 attendance for Wolves. I contacted the Football League and they answered in the negative to that figure!

So, they must receive the 'actual' attendance figure as opposed to what we are told which is the 'tickets sold' figure.

Hi,

Please be aware that the following page has an omission.


http://www.football-league.co.uk/page/AttendanceStats/0,,10794,00.html

Under Attendances it states

- 10 clubs achieved at least one match attendance higher than 25,000 last season. Two clubs, (Sheffield Wednesday and Derby County) achieved match attendances over 30,000

Please be advised that Brighton and Hove Albion achieved an attendance of 30,003 v Wolves on 4th May 2013 as can be verified from the following link

Thank you for your email.

However the figure we have for that match is the official attendance.

Thank you for contacting The Football League.

Yet on the Football League's own site, it says the attendance was 30,003..?

Why no vile abuse for the OP ?

Because this is an interesting thread, unlike the utter rubbish you spout when you get it into your head that comparing our attendances to Palace's is somehow relevant or interesting. This thread is for stats, yours are a pathetic attempt at oneupmanship.
