Post by: Mrs Warbouys on October 08, 2008, 02:14:52 PM
Alty flying at the moment, United and Ciddy both not playing, oxford bringing a few, nothing else to do on a sunday when theres no sky games in the pubs, 1,500+ on sunday.

Hopefully a good back page spread in Messenger as that'd help.

Fingers crossed. If we keep up this kind of form then I think we can expect our average crowd to go up this year, helped by the Wrexham game turnout.

The Wrexham gate has swelled the average to over 1250 I think. A good turnout on Sunday would boost this even further!  ;)

Just how many 'floaters' do we estimate Alty have?

I.e - fans who will come down quite reguarly when we are winning etc?

Don't want to sound like an anorak, but I was thinking the best way to guage the "real" average attendance of a club is to take the median and not the mean average. That way you can avoid anomalies like playing Cambridge on a bank holiday when your ground is 1.3 miles away etc etc
So from 5 crowds in descending order 3,498 - 1,003 -  924 - 918 - 897 the average crowd would be 924 not nearly 2,000 - which is much more representative.
Ok maths lesson over (Ps I was average at GCSE maths on a good day so am not boasting)
Anyone know what our median average crowd would be this season?

The median crowd average for home league games is the 1005 at Mansfield.

Have you seen them before?  They are brilliant live.

I was chatting rubbish to them in Big Hands in Manc a few months ago.

"OH THEADORE YOU ARE THE MOST ATTRACTIVE MAN!!!!!"

jim,

Yes indeed, I shall be there at The Ritz in the company of various Harbingers and that groupie of theirs who supports Alty and Aston Villa.

I missed their performance in Manchester back in January due to suffering an outbreak of flu.

Look forward to putting a face to the name on Sunday evening.
