Attendance Thread - Fulham

I’d love to see a map that shows what percentage of areas buy tickets for Sunderland games or something along those lines. It would be interesting and I do wonder if residents from surrounding areas buy more tickets than Sunderland residents.

I definitely think more from surrounding areas. Very rarely hear a proper mackem accent at the SoL and away games.

With the possibility of extra time and penalties, it will not be possible to book trains to get home on the night for anybody from Scotland or south of Leeds, so that will put a small number off. Having said that my son has agreed to work from home on Wednesday, or rather work from here, then get the 6.20 train into work in Edinburgh on Thursday morning, so there are ways to do it.

Just had a chat with 3 season ticket holders all nearly 80 but not going as it will be a cold night and it’s on council Tv , cannot blame them
 
It will be interesting to see what the ground looks like , when the actual attendance will match the tickets sold. I get the impression that a few thousand season card holders miss midweek games, so it might look fuller than the official attendance. If that makes sense.

How come it’s only Sunderland that gets this shite?
So a majority of the Scum support on match days comes from Newcastle does it?
It doesn’t come from Gateshead, Wallsend , North Shields, Tynemouth, South Shields, Hebburn, Jarrow, Blyth,Ashington,Consett ,Durham, Northumberland and County Durham?

My sons school got 50 tickets last week from SAFC. I'm lead to believe that all 50 of these tickets will count towards the attendance figure, even if they're not all taken up and used on the day. Surely that can't be true. It would make a mockery of any attendance figure as it won't be the only school to get a few.

Calm yourself down it’s just something I’d be personally interested in seeing. I support Sunderland but I’m not from Sunderland. Worked in Sunderland a lot though and through conversations with colleagues who live there and support the team but don’t go always interested me.
