It's grim oop north
Thank you Paul Barber and anyone how made this decision

Annoucing attendance and away attendance after full time was brilliant. Please please always do this.

Fair enough if we 'must' announce away fans but always after FT so it doesnt make us look tinpot and give the away fans a reason to liven up

Good stuff

Yep spot on. Totally the correct way to do it. 10/10.

It's only taken five seasons!

I had not even thought of the attendance until it was announced after the final whistle, well done the club, realised the potential mistake they made last week

Just seems a better time and place to do it all round really. The days of our own fans being impressed with 29-30k gates are long gone and doesn't really stoke up our own atmosphere.

When we announce large away followings it really gets them going, especially when we announce it's a bloody home record :facepalm:

Still, it's nice to hear after the game, maybe it'll make some people stay until the final whistle :whistle:

Agree - announcing the attendance at the wrong time to gee up the away fans - sorted.

Trains better today by the looks of it - sorted.

Now make it easy to buy a cup of tea on cold days in the 1901. Lunacy making people queue at one place to buy a ticket to buy tea from another place. While the tea serving area is blissfully empty. Just let people pay the silly price of £2.20 - or better make it a sensible £1.50 or £2 - from where they're actually dispensing it. Simple.
