    There was a valid reason in those days. There was VAT to avoid paying.

    If that's what they announced it explains why they are so embarrassed that they haven't announced it on social media. No way did 10k get reached tonight. The Ponte hasn't been that empty since the Carlisle match. We should be honest about our actual gates.

    It's a common thing in all events, not just football and not just sport. 'Attendance' is number of tickets sold, not people there.

    Two ST’s here. Didn’t go, didn’t go sat either. And several other games since September. Won’t be renewing so won’t be counted next season. Sad state of affairs at the club but self inflicted and history repeating itself again.

    Except it isn't is it. The dictionary says it isn't.

    I know that, that's why I put 'Attendance' in quotation marks.

    Not saying it's right, it definitely isn't, but it's very common.

    Yeah it's common but I'm surprised it's legal as in my opinion it's deliberate false advertising to sponsors and advertisers who are in the crowd.
