I hope it's ok to post a new thread about this. Home attendances, league and cups, are a popular discussion on here and instead of looking through all the other threads to see them, is it ok to discuss them here? I've boycotted for many years and I don't take any gratification from the dwindling numbers. It's just a sad indictment of the regime. From the Ipswich match day thread: Shocking. Any news on official attendance? 12k maybe?
Cheers. The last one I saw was 14k I think, so even official numbers say 3k have been lost between games? I might be wrong tho.
The revenue lost is farcical. How can a businessman have allowed petty mindedness to get ahead of finance.
And possibly lost for good. Families priced out of attending games may well have found other interests. The prem tourists are long gone, get their fix via Sky and BT, for less money a month.
My son has utterly lost interest (probably because I have) breaks my heart, but I will not give those ****s one single penny
I honestly don't think they'd be bothered if the stadium was empty, I'd rather there were 18,000 there getting behind the team and chanting ALLAM OUT!!
Because my son will never be a Hull city fan. Unlike his father, grandfather & great grandfather. I’m sure there are 1000’s of kids like my son, no interest in hull city
And yet there are still some morons who don't see the allams have done wrong, had some retard on twitter the other day blaming low crowds on relegation
Fair enough, I hope you and your son get the interest back again soon, although I fear the clowns in charge will be here for a while yet.
I'm sure the PL whores that we attracted have skulked off back to MOTD & SKY, they're no real loss - the majority were never here for the duration. Yer retard on Twatter (I'm guessing PL whore) needs to realise the loss of hardcore support and the kids for the future far outweighs the loss of any through relegation alone. The club's in free-fall and slowly dying on its arse.
When those ****s go I'!ll be back every game (not the odd one now and again) with my 2 sons along with 25,027 other fans. Go on Adam you know you want to.
I stopped going at the beginning of the name change fiasco. They lost me and my money then. So when they're gone (Allams) I'll be back. They were heroes and they know it. Shame they ****ed it up so much. All their own doing.
There has always been a level of fickleness in this city- witness the late 70s when a Hull FC team pissing on Keighley, Huyton, Bpool Boro, Hunslet etc pulled a five figure gate every single home game in rugby league's second division which they won at a canter. This when City struggled to get 5,000. People enjoy supporting a winning team so too many people switched from City to RL and LFC, especially if you are lazy and have low self esteem this is a no brainer. That's why we see so many dumb ****s with LFC gear on, some of them at least 60 years old. Now that Hull's bubble has burst, their trophies have dried up, it will be interesting to see how their gates hold up. Our gates are **** for various reasons, and the lightweights have switched their allegiance to Hull, but they will have to get off that bandwagon soon. Can only mean an uptake in Sky subscriptions and more Man City shirts in town.
