    They only have to get one crowd above 49,000, all season, out of 23 games, to guarantee he wins the bet.

    You might as well pay the money now and be done with it.

    He changed the 'Mc' to 'Mac', though. I thought it had something to do with that.

    Crap joke if that's all it is

    I am going to insist that we count the ones that are turned away from the S.O.L because it is full !

    He never mentioned it being based on the average crowd, if you read his post.

    Exactly.
    It is the team with the highest league attendance... Singular.
    As you say, one attendance over 49,000 and Fredor pays.
    That game will either be the first one, or Villa. I also believe that we have arpund 40,000 ST holders.

    Indeed. In fact Albert's actual words were highest league gate so the only way we will resolve this is to get a ladder and some measuring tape.

    ah you are right it is plural and so based on cumulative attendance over the full season. Good job we get those extra games in the Championship. :)

    How about we undertake a systematic observation of the similarities ( or dissimilarities ) between the relevant attendances of both clubs

    Sorry Obi ( Ask one of your friends )

    i wouldn't want to think you are backing out of a charity bet now Fredor?

    the clear as fook wording is:

    £20 bet on which team get's the highest league gate
    Job done.

    Joking aside If you want to back out Fredor, just say. I'll put my own hand in my pocket and put £20 into the MacMillan pot on behalf of you. <whistle>

    Spoken like a true Newcastle supporter Albert, I have never been able to understand why they do not have the balls to stand up and admit but would rather find a way to wriggle out of a situation , the money to me is insignificant just tell me where to send it and I will double what I promised
