BartonFox Posted 19 December 2006 Share Posted 19 December 2006 Proof if it was actually needed that this great game has gone to the toffs and arseholes of our society. What kind of statement is that? 30,000 whoopde-f'ckn-do, well done. You have to admire their front it's bigger than Southend's, on the day it comes out that certain bods have been cooking the books an internal halfwit glosses over the fact we are playing on average to 4,500 under budget each home game. And still people wonder why the Club get criticised by the likes of me??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr_jex Posted 19 December 2006 Share Posted 19 December 2006 do you think gettin poles in ever corner of the ground is a good Idea so we could get some birds down from Stolettos or The Avery as i think that may bring in a few who may not have considdered coming down the city and we maybe able to get up to 2nd on the attendance charts? There are enough boobs on the pitch without getting any more in!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gatesheadfox Posted 19 December 2006 Share Posted 19 December 2006 it was a stupid statement for the club to make but they can be happy they achieved what they wanted at the weekend. stick the prices down to attract a bigger crowd. the fact we won is reason for them to be even more happy. 3rd highest in the country is still a good record to have considering premiership teams now dont exactly pack their stadiums. bad choice of words but i can't see what is wrong with the club kissing their own, and our arses on this occasion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suffolk_fox Posted 19 December 2006 Share Posted 19 December 2006 It would be interesting to see how much we made in gate receipts, takings at the club shop etc compared to a normally priced match day.... Takings up or down? Would do a poll but can't be arsed... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MC Prussian Posted 19 December 2006 Share Posted 19 December 2006 I don't get what exactly is wrong with this apart from them making it a bigger deal than it perhaps it. ?? Because they've somewhat lost the last sense of reality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scow Posted 19 December 2006 Share Posted 19 December 2006 Twas a bit of a silly statement to make. Someone at the club got a little over excited. However, still an impressive attendance given the factors counting against us. A club like Wigan wouldn't achieve that as they're essentially a League 2 club taken out of context by Whelan's millions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Head Honcho Posted 19 December 2006 Share Posted 19 December 2006 You have to give the club some credit for filling the ground but it's when they start blowing their own trumpet I can't stand. Ok! You've got the crowd, now let's see the football! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floating Fox Posted 19 December 2006 Share Posted 19 December 2006 Nice achievement, but I was always told that your trumpet sounds so much better when someone else is blowing it.... people are talking about us.

vanfox12 Posted 19 December 2006 Share Posted 19 December 2006 First season at the Walkers we were getting regularly crowds of 30,000 because it was cheaper then and we had more than one fans fixture that season at £10 a ticket plus we were winning games. Now the gloss has come off the Walkers and we're playing shite but if we were in serious contention in the Championship then we would get crowds of at Least 25,000 every time.

willy37 Posted 20 December 2006 Share Posted 20 December 2006 i think all leicester fans should be proud of themselves. we are currently watching the worst football most of us have seen for a long time and we still sell more tickets for home games than the top 2 birmingham and derby.

Do they proclaim to have "has sent shockwaves across the industry" as a result of giving out so many free tickets? No I thought not! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The People's Hero Posted 21 December 2006 Share Posted 21 December 2006 Wow! I just felt a shockwave... finally it's reached Maidstone. I asked a local about it yesterday, he said 'Leicester? Who are they?' - Must have been the shockwave playing havoc with his brain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
