Newcastle FC (Aug 19)

[Gorillacop]

Be interesting to see what their attendance is tonight as as far as I know there are no boycotts planned.

It'll give a far better indication (than a league game) of how much their fickle fanbase have simply walked away because they aren't doing as well as they believe they have the right to be doing.

What would you expect it to be?

 

[Rottie]

No end product though, open the gates and he will run through them . Remember Allan Brown for us, possibly even Watmore now?

David Bellion, still running now probably

 

[rentaghost]

What would you expect it to be?

You normally get 38,000 ish for those games which is very good so i suppose somewhere around there?

 

[Wansbeck Viking]

I'm going for 25k, tbf Ashley has never took the cups seriously so why should the fans bother to pay their hard earned money

Does he pick the team?

 

[Blyth_Pirate]

What would you expect it to be?

Not many, half the fcukers too busy posting on here.

No.

 

[rentaghost]

No.

Aye OK - just looked back to last season and you had 36k and 34k for your two early cup games so not a kick in the arse away really. So I guess that's a reasonable benchmark for tonight?

 

[Blyth_Pirate]

No.

Are you going?

You and I both know it’s going to be nowhere near that.

The club don’t even deserve 5k there.

Are you going?

No, I spend all of my time on here.

Read somewhere that Leicester only bringing 800, poor turnout from them also if true

Yep thought as much.

Why??

No, I spend all of my time on here.

Why on earth not? You have a decent, competitive premiership side that has just had a great, well deserved victory against one of the best sides in Europe.

What the poster above fails to mention is that his figures were taken from January FA Cup games. The last League Cup 2nd round attendance was 27k.

What was the last skunks game that you were in attendance at?

Because a one off result doesn’t paper over the severe clusterfuck that is the club.

What was the last skunks game that you were in attendance at?

Liverpool last season.

 

[iansun]

No.

Way less before 1993

 

[Sima]

Way less before 1993

Can’t expect a club that has such a short history to get decent attendances tbf. We’d only been formed 12 months.

Liverpool last season.

Managers come and go all the time, you should be backing Bruce to be honest, put your issues with Ash to one side and support your club, that's what proper supporters do.

Liverpool last season.

A competitive, more or less debt free premiership club. 80% of clubs in the country would kill to be in your position. Clusterfuck my arse. Your 'clusterfuck' is that you would like to be challenging a bit further up the league and be a it more competitive in the cups a bit like everyone else. What a 'woe is me' self righteous bunch some you really are.
