Why does it matter?

Well it makes a mockery of records for one thing. I remember Huddersfield playing at Arsenal in the FA Cup and there was some sort of stat that it was the biggest ever crowd to watch Huddersfield or similar.. 60000+ according to the official figures when, in fact, the stadium was clearly only half full.

I thought it was noticeable how many seats were empty at kick-off that took about 10/15 mins to fill. Was there congestion on the roads or problems with the trains? Perhaps they were all just finishing their beers on the concourse?

Calmer road was rammed all the way down to woodingdean. Could have been avoided with kore considerate control of traffic lights as queues in other directions were nowhere near as bad
