1k per match per year for 4 years adds up to 10k (4*1k+3*1k+2*1k+1*1k).
So, over the 4 year period, the equivalent of 10k people didn't attend a single game.
In pass sales that could be as much as £2.5.
If attendances have only gone down by 3% then I'll stick with the HDM figures.

You need to go back to school and learn some basic maths.
Aggregate attendaces, that's how many actually were counted by THE CLUB each year, if you don't believe me you can check it for yourself except you couldn't be arsed and are now making yourself look foolish.

Here you go

We had two home play off games, one in 2012, the other in 2013, we did not have a play off game in 2011 so we had that extra income (not included in pass sales rememeber!) & actually the aggregate was higher in 2012 than 2011. And yes we have had the extra home game included in the pass this year but I never once said this wasn't the case.
If you can't accept the facts that's your problem and you're in denial that certain people are making stuff up, keep beleiving in their fairy stories!

So we've lost 10,000 fans per game? Are you pearson's business adviser

If we are that skint, would we run an under 23s side?

You're as bad as bumpy - read what I said.

We've lost 10k fans over a period of 4 years for every single game.

1k down 4 years ago means a total of 4k didn't go over a period of 4 years to every game.
Another 1k down 3 years ago means 3k didn't go over a period of 3 years to every game.
etc

Adds up to a total of 10k didn't go over a 4 year period to every single game.

And if bumpy is reading this, I was replying to your comment...



so you need to go back to school and learn how to read.

Hope you don't feel too foolish, but you must be used to it by now.

The problem is Pearson forgets we have been here longer than him, some more than others. Look at the team we had under Agar, it was pitiful to watch. Yet here we are years down the line with another clown in charge. I really don't want to be pessimistic but the majority of fans are walking cause of the coach, the new signings look great but if the captain of the ship should really be down in the galley cooking breakfast then the whole job is b%ll%ed.
As someone has already said if you brought a top coach in tomorrow he would sell a couple of thousand passes without even opening his mouth.
Look at Cas, man for man who would you swap from our team, not many, yet they consistently perform at a much higher level and compete with an inferior team. That's because they have a coach

Why apologise? Typical chip on shoulder vitriolic response from bitter and twisted rovers fan.

Just trying to be polite and avoid the SERIOUSLY SAD ear bashing I got last time I posted

I think what ccs means is something like this (using totally hypothetical figures as I cba looking anything up):

2011 - ave att of 14,000 per game
2012 - 13,000
2013 - 12,000
2014 - 11,000
2015 - 10,000

Using again a completely made up figures of £15 per person and 13 home games a year:
vs 2015's average:
2011 - 4,000 x 13 x £15
2012 - 3,000 x 13 x £15
2013 - 2,000 x 13 x £15
2014 - 1,000 x 13 x £15

So, he's saying over a 4-year period, 2015 vs 2011 if we'd have kept gate receipts at 2011's level, we'd have £x more in the bank. Not saying he or the figures are correct mind, just that's how he's done his workings

Not commented on this subject until now


Ultimately im disappointed with the team, more so with pearson sticking with radford, still not cutting it for me

It wont stop me renewing next season as i am thankful we gave a team to support atm, its easy to criticise pearson on his decisions interviews etc but ateod nobody else would have bought the club or looks like buying the club

Weve had lloyd who was far worse than Pearson, kath and her cronies who had no intention of taking the club futher or investing into it, out of those who would people want?

You cant force people to buy passes but whilst not agreeing with what pearson said about fans killing the club if we dont turn up, we are part of that jigsaw that keeps the club going, so in a way we are hurting our club by not renewing, which everyone has the right not too, but our investment is atm a fraction of what pearson has put in
