The revenue from ticket sales line in the balance sheet in probably the only way of knowing the impact of boycotts for sure.0

The Jackpot is quite a good indicator. In terms of transparency, the club could simply disclose how many comps are included in each attendance. That figure is declared to the Football League, so it's not as if they don't have it. Don't hold your breath!1

I think it is very clear for most fans that our 'bums on seats' are about 7000.0

The geezer who sits in front of me is fuckin massive 70012

I would imagine an issue with the jackpot is that some people who are attending will not be buying! The best indicator is the visual I would say if we can't get gate receipt data! What is important is by how much receipts have decreased!1

Possibly but it's unlikely this changes match by match, so is still useful to compare one match with another this season, for example.MuttleyCAFC said:I would imagine an issue with the jackpot is that some people who are attending will not be buying!

The computer system will. For it to be capable of preventing the same ticket being scanned multiple times (which it is, as I've accidentally printed tickets off double-sided and got myself in a tizz before.) it must have a mechanism for storing which ones have been redeemed. Furthermore, this would have to be centralized to ensure one ticket couldn't gain entry multiple times via different gates.Callumcafc said:
The way they calculate it has been the same for some time. They add up the number of tickets sold and given away to give the attendance figure.mogodon said:
Agree. which, looking at other pictures, makes a claim of 10,000+ utterly ludicrous, surely? A question for Meire next time she emerges from the bunker ... how are home gates calculated?TellyTubby said:
Looks less than 1000 to me.Amos on the wing said:View from upper west of east stand on Saturday 15 mins into the game.
If they gave away 10,000 more tickets they would've claimed a 20k attendance.
I understand why it used to be done this way, counting all the ticket stubs is a waste of time. I would imagine the new computerised system will log how many codes are scanned each match day and might provide a more accurate figure.
Besides - with the Belgian love-affair with data and stats - I can't see Katrien & Co missing that opportunity to harvest some more numbers.2 -

Oh, I don't doubt for one second that people will have access to these numbers but wish for them to remain a secret.Airman Brown said:

I do, however, suspect that "technical issues" would be the first excuse to be used should someone request them.0 -
I can see the row where I sat with my season ticket for 16 years is completely empty. Not one person sitting there.Fortune 82nd Minute said:

I can see where I have sat for the last 17 years is now nearly empty. (Not renewed my season ticket this year). And nothing Squirrel Face can say can convince me otherwise.0 -

In which case get Squirrel Face to reveal them all in her next Powerpoint presentation. That will mean we'll never get to see them.Airman Brown said:
