globaldiver Posted December 21, 2008 Share Posted December 21, 2008 Lowest ever at the Reebok for a Prem match? Was under 20,000,were was everybody No, the main difference was the number of away fans. Add on 3,000 an you have the normal gate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddie Posted December 21, 2008 Share Posted December 21, 2008 I thought it looked decent taking into consideration Christmas. It looked like a normal attendance for us, North stand almost full, West stand with empty bits in the corners, and the south stand lower was almost full which it isn't usually. Like boltondiver said, without the 3000 in the away end then the attendance is bound to look poor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YATESY Posted December 21, 2008 Share Posted December 21, 2008 Quite a few gates last season was saved from lower attendances than yesterday due to the size of the away following. 19,000 Bolton fans has been the average norm for 2 or 3 seasons now.

tedmull Posted December 21, 2008 Share Posted December 21, 2008 I've said this before but in my opinion the smoking ban has affected crowds all over the country, I can't sit through a game without a cig, I still love Bolton but I watch local football and smoke about 12 every game. I reckon there are a couple thousand people like me, missing from grounds everywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can now enjoy a pint without choking and spluttering on other peoples smoke. And my clothes don't stink of shitty smoke after five minutes in the pub. I don't mind people smoking as long as it doesn't stop me from breathing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweep Posted December 22, 2008 Share Posted December 22, 2008 i pity you if you can't last 90 mins without a smoke i really do. I was thinking that, it's hardly a long time. How do you get on when you fly somewhere long haul, and can't smoke for 10+ hours? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colditz Posted December 22, 2008 Share Posted December 22, 2008 We have always had piss poor support. Nothing changes. 3 or 4 years ago we were getting an average of 24 to 25 thousand home fans every game but eventually the prices forced them out as they were not getting value for money. They have since reduced the prices a little and have atleast tried with the free away travel , 15 pound matches, fanzone etc but watching football is a routine and people have now lost the habit and most would rather watch the game in the pub. The credit crunch doesnt help, i wouldnt mind going against Wigan but the prices really make you think twice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
