Guest Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 Average attendances this season v those 5 years ago are irrelevant. Rangers were in the league helping away attendances, Hearts and Hibs fans were travelling in greater numbers and home gates were generally higher. What was our attendance compared to those in the SPL at that time? Hearts and Aberdeen have travelled in huge numbers this season 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Killie give a lot to the old firm as do Motherwell, st Johnstone and Hamilton. A league table with home average only would be interesting.

Aisde from the Dundee clubs, the Edinburgh clubs, Aberdeen and the Old Firm (rip), we have the largest home support in Scotland. Quite rightly so, as we have a huge catchment area and are further from Glasgow than Motherwell, Killie etc That's why it's frustrating we're stuck in the second tier playing to 3,000 crowds when a long line of diddies are plying their trade in the league above. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dundee would say the same, another club that has massively underachieved in the last 5 years. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz FFC Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 (edited) In all seriousness a top league with potentially Inverness, Hamilton, Ross C and St Johnstone whilst Rangers, Hearts, Dundee, Dunfermline and Falkirk play in the championship is embarrassing from a crowd point of view and will probably have poorer interest.

Falkirk-Bairn22 Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 Jay Fulton on bench for Swansea today's game. Any appearance fees due to the Bairns? Not sure, we have been very good at agreeing add ons with recent transfers so wouldn't surprise me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
