Crowd today

Quite interesting looking at our history of attendances. This season looks like going on to be our biggest outside of the premier League for many a year.

It really shows how fans will come if the product is good and the team are putting the effort in.

 
Those buying half season ticket tickets in December. Looks like a shrewder move, as every day that passes. £22? for guranteed seat per home game.

Aways

Sheff United - sold out
Rotherham - sell out?
Huddersfield - sell out?
WBA - sell out?

Coventry @ home - sell out? (last league game of the season)
Burnley @ home - sell out? (Good Friday - big away following)

Approx 70% Possible
Play off semis - sell outs

Approx 40% chance
Play off Final - 45k Boro fans want a ticket

Cheers for this, EB.

The figures look a bit out of date for this season - we have played more than 13 home games. Also we have had 2 sell outs - Sunderland and Wigan.

The last 3 homes games would have pushed up the average attendance from the figure quoted. For me we are on course for 26k. The highest in this league since the Robbo days of 1998. Once the poorer economic conditions of Teesside today are compared with 1997/8 - that is even more impressive. (no ICI, no Corus? Steel manaufacturing etc).
 
Posted by myself last week ...

The stats speak for themselves ... great numbers currently given the current price of football we're nearly on a par with the average crowd the season after we last dropped out the Premier League

Some strange stats in amongst this lot ... we were better supported Colin Todd's soul season in charge than we were for Lennie's promotion season

There's a repeating pattern with top flight attendances after the boom of the 74/75 season you can see attendances dropping off season by season until our massive decline in the early to mid 80s

After 2004/05 full houses at the Riverside are few and far between, surprisingly filling the corner in only actually benefited us for the 1st two seasons with regards to regular attendances of 33k+ (I'm assuming we were still at season card sell out status at this point)

Quite a few of our highest gates were reduced ticket price games Coventry at the end of the 2009/10 certainly was I'm pretty sure season card holders could bring someone for a fiver if they filled a form out with the person's details they were buying the extra ticket for

West Ham 89/90 was the game you had to attend to be 'guaranteed' a ZDS Cup Final Ticket
What happened in 2006/07 for Charlton to be the biggest home gate of the season? I think this game may have been kids for a quid?

Sheff Wed was a ticket deal in 2012/13 as was Bolton the following season for Karanka's first game in charge

for the record them up the A19 win the trophy for best supported club between the 2 of us (but I think we secretly already knew that ... just as well big crowds don't win you promotion Roker Park was much bigger than Ayresome until the part demolishion of the Roker End

Right ... what can I study next haha

we've gained 86 fans we're now at 25102 from 25016 (a higher average than our last top 2 finish season) but still short of the season after our last spell in the Premier League
 
The record across the same fixture over the last 10 years tells quite a story:

Sat 4 Feb 202326,299
Sat 18 Feb 202121,022
Tue 13 Sep 201415,213
Sat 17 Aug 201313,993
Sat 29 Dec 201218,164

Those figures seem unbelievable now.

We went through quite a slump pre karanka. He reignited the fans.

I guessed it had gone over 25k - Crowds between 26k and 31k for the rest our home crowds will get the average up to at least 26k. Remember match tickets means priority points.

The issue of crowds dropping in 1991/2 was due in part to a few factors in my opinion:

Economic recession/downturn in 1991/2
Rising prices in 1991/2
A lot of cup matches.

Didnt the prices go up something like £2 a game

Im sure the Holgate was £4, then £6 then £8 and possibly a tenner in our last season

The East end used to be a straight fiver with no consessions possibly then that changed to £6 adults £3 concessions i think

Yes. The big issue that year was the prices. They shot up and it went down very badly.
 
DC is right about the Holgate £4 to £6 to £8 in 2 seasons

East End were £5 in 1988/9 then £5.50 in 1989/90 by 1991/2 they could have been £10 - about £23 in todays money. Still chepaer than the £30 walk up adults pay today, but we do have 18-21 prices now and around a third off for over 65s. Plus VAT has gone up to 20%.

I remember the east end prices going right up for our 1st season in the prem (92/93) when you watch the goals from that season the stand is almost empty for the Leeds and Man City games but then from the Villa game they reduced the prices and you can see from the season review the stand is full

I think the compulsory membership card was the reason for the low attendance against Leeds in the Prem. That would've been a very healthy attendance but there was a big backlash against being forced to have a membership card. I think Luton were the first club to make it compulsory?
