Still over 2500 tickets for sale on the website.
Formula for predicting gate figure on Saturday.

PG = 30,750 - (TA+2,000) + 135x

where TA is tickets for sale on the website and x is the number of days to go

gives us PG = 30,750 - (2,600+2,215) + 405 = 26,340

I don't understand that, but I reckon that maybe uncannily accurate! Good work.

Why does the formula above say

(TA+2,000)

But the calculation says

(2,600+2,215)

Why has it gone to 2215?

Well spotted. I adjusted this item upwards after reassessing the likely number of unsold seats in the South Stand.

Ok so, really you might want to add it as a variable (SA?) to reflect it represents the south away shortfall?

Yes, that would be sensible. To complete a reusable formula the 135 "constant" would also be improved if replaced with DS (an estimate of average daily sales) or something...?

I get the impression that the people who who think it costs too much have already made a stand. They seem to consist mostly of you and [MENTION=11191]Pretty pink fairy[/MENTION], two repetitively moaning sad old peas from the same pod.
that's choice coming from you :tosser:
