Our stadium has gradually become more full over the past few seasons so I was wondering if anyone had the figures for the season so far and the past few seasons ? Also, how many fans do you rekon we will have through the doors if we go back up to the premier leauge ?
I wonder if some of the plastics that used to go to the other place down the M27 a few years ago, will start to come to St Marys...
01-02 30,633 02-03 30,680 03-04 31,699 04-05 30,610 05-06 23,614 06-07 23,556 07-08 22,253 08-09 17,849 09-10 20,982 10-11 22,160 11-12 25,486
This shows that this season's average is the highest since we've been out of the Premier League ! 08-09's average is terrible. I remember when the club were getting gates of just 13,000 on some Saturdays, dreadful - luckily those times are no more !
I believe people were purposely staying away, at that point. Mind you, they didn't need much incentive to do so,
So our lowest gate all season has been 17,849. Pompey fans have been praised all over the press this week for coming out and suppporting their failing club against Leeds at the weekend. Gate 17,500.
That figure was our average attendance in the 08-09 season. Our lowest league attendance this season was just over 20,000 I believe.
Ah yes, my apologies, seems wikipedia cannot be trusted : 02/03 30,680 03/04 31,716 04/05 30,609 05/06 23,613 06/07 23,556 07/08 21,253 08/09 17,849 09/10 20,982 10/11 22,160 11/12 25,486
