Lookers_Carl Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 I am sure there will have been an undeclared turnstile or three Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yard Dog Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 Main Stand looked full-ish, but probably wasn't. The Chaddy looked nowhere near full. Half-full at best. :censored:e game, :censored:e crowd and :censored:e atmosphere, but 3 excellent points. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarryBosch Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 The main stand and chaddy end did seem pretty much full to me. I'm sure we will out number them at Spotland again this season like last. they get 3000 home fans, we get 4000, but we'll take 3200 again, even if we're bottom of the league + 1000 who can't get in I don't get it (???)

dec666 Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 I know that - I was in it mate. I'de say it was two thirds full, there would of been around 2,000 in Chaddy and 2,000 in Main stand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldhamains Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 I know that - I was in it mate. My view was from the main stand, I thought it looked a lot more than half, But saying that it could of been my positive outlook because we were 2-0 up when discussing it I could be wrong HarryBosch: No idea what you are talking about.

Its easy, he is saying that our ratio to home and away fans is strange..... we get 4000 for a home game, but can take 3200 away to Rochdale.. Is that right Boschy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that right Boschy I think he was trying to say that we take the majority of our home support to Rochdale, but they only bring just over a third of theirs.

Yard Dog Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 I'm not so sure, thought 350 was an excellent turnout after the start we had! Not bad, but nothing to write home about - we got 100 cheap tickets allocated to us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RochdaleAFC Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 1100?. My wife had it spot in when she said " They seem a bit small club syndrome". ha ha You know why that is? Because we are a small club and we know it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
don't worry be happy Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 I long for the day when Latics fans get on in perfect harmony...... hahahah it's just a ball of string ...someone snaps it and everyone moans..it makes me wonder why people go to boundary park then vent there frustrations on a message board...i found the cure i tend to go down manchester these days oops just for a few snifters sheepish grin ..no fcukin moans down there young man..it ain'like owdam it kinda gives you a buzzz hahahaha :grin: i'll; never forget the buzz of bp..will i??? :grin: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonesyOAFC Posted August 21, 2011 Share Posted August 21, 2011 You know why that is? Because we are a small club and we know it! I wouldn't mind, but you lot take 2000+ to Bureh everytime you play them. What's the difference? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RochdaleAFC Posted August 21, 2011 Share Posted August 21, 2011 That is a bit of a myth. We took 2,800 on two occasions. One was the last away game of the season when we were securing a play off position in our centenary season and the year after when we were in 3rd and Bury were 4th near the end of the season as well. We took 2,000 when we were top of the league on a Monday night live on Sky as well. Apart from that we usually take 1,200ish. Also it seems £23 is beyond the cut off point for many and the fact we have played Bury a lot more often in recent years means there is a bit more about it.

I agree, £23 for 3rd tier football, especially two average teams, is pretty much extortion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dazlatic Posted August 21, 2011 Share Posted August 21, 2011 £23 is too much for this standard of football. Officials will say about the need to bring in renvenue to hit UEFA targets but even still the working class people around here will not fork out over 20 quid to watch 3rd rate football. 'UEFA' and 'Working Class' will never mix... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't expect to see much more than the 100 but was pleasantly surprised when we arrived. Good turnout, noisy IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThaiLatic Posted August 21, 2011 Share Posted August 21, 2011 There is a Rochdale fan who posts on a Thai football forum. He obviously thinks that a trip to BP is a big deal. Here's his most recent offering. "Yeah Bury are doing great, unlike the Mighty Dale. Massive derby at Oldham and lost 2-0". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we had charged £20 and that had brought in an extra 200 or so adult paying fans we would have had more money... not to mention the increased pie sales Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
