Mixuismagic Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 Nice wee drive over the Braes and down through Ayrshire..Downside is i am 6'3'' and the leg room at Rugby Park is murder. There is loads of legroom in the Frank Beattie stand and plenty of pie stalls. Only £330 (+£20 discount voucher if bought by 30th June) for a season ticket to watch the mighty Killie. You know it makes sense! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No8. Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 Go to Rugby park mate with the rest of the pies. Or go shopping.... Just dont come to St. Mirren park, you're not wanted. I think i might start going to the Feegie Dome just to spite you 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigkillie Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 or compare the average attendances against capacities: NHL - Avg Capacity: 18,331 - Avg Attendance: 17,132 (93.46% of capacity) NBA - Avg Capacity: 19,154 - Avg Attendance: 17,323 (90.44% of capacity) MLS - Avg Capacity: 28,745 - Avg Attendance: 17,872 (62.17% of capacity) This isn't really relevant. What would be more appropriate with respect to what you're trying to prove would be the percentage of games which were sold out (demand outstripping supply). From your data, it could just be the case that every single NBA game is 90% full. A game which is sold out could be considered as a "censored" data point and there are complex ways of factoring that into averages. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Buddie Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 I drive from Ayrshire to Paisley for the games and always park in Feegie as I like to get home before the official car park lets folk out at 10pm. Never had a problem and never had to pay anyone to 'watch' my car. Go on No8 - support a diddie team - it will change your views on life The last time I was at Sellick Park, a wee Heidy ( about 6 or 7 years old ) "offered" to watch my car. I gave him 50p and said he'd better be careful with it, cos I knew where he lived and if it was damaged I was coming to get him. You could see in his face that he wasn't quite sure whether I was serious or not. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fanny pounder Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 STOP!!! Diddy fans - you are losing your marbles trying to get NO.8 to support your teams, Where has the mutual dislike of the Old Firm and their fans gone? Have you no self respect? Let them die quietly and with some dignity and NO.8 can simply follow follow he can follow ...em....nope. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank God for Wisbit No I think we should try to convert you as there seems to be the kernel of a decent human being deep within that h*n interior. We can then hold you up as a shining beacon and continue the process. Also someone once said "The surest way to defeat your enemy is one by one". I think it was Eric Morecambe. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A game which is sold out could be considered as a "censored" data point and there are complex ways of factoring that into averages. Well i certainly know that in Vancouver the Canucks sell out every game, although there are ways to get tickets pre game if you time it correct as with so many home games there are normally a few spare season ticket seats . I have a friend who has 3 season tickets to the BC Lions Canadian football team and rather than send him a book of tickets he gets sent individual tickets a month before each game, thus if he is going to miss a game he can pass the tickets on to his employees without the risk of losing his book. As to the current Cancuks run as of the 28th of March this year it stood at 400 games in a row. How some Scottish teams would love a record like that. This is the active sell out list as at the 28th of March for all North American sports With the all time records below It would be interesting to see a European comparision. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjc Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 Was speaking to a Rangers & a Celtic fan in the pub last night who both actually think the CVA will go through..........saying that they both also said it was ALL Craig Whyte's fault plus Scottish would be like the Irish or Welsh league without Rangers ! The Rangers fan actually bet me £5 that they DON'T get liquidated ! I suggested that they both don't believe everything they read in the Daily Record ! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjc Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 What about taking in a few Queens Park games at Hampden, No8 ? You could be a new breed of Queens Park Ranger. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My whole point was that random statistics with no context don't tell you the whole story! And that looking at another one, again with no context, could lead you to a completely different conclusion. PS. I don't have info to hand about how many games sold out, I agree it would add a lot to the overall picture. But it would certainly be pretty strange if on average 93% of tickets sold, but there were no sell outs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thistle_do_nicely Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 Guy in my work just announced that HMRC have rejected the CVA. Was all excited expecting it to be breaking news on the BBC, SSN etc. that he read during an idle moment but it turns out his source is a text message from a friend. Gutted. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It disnae matter cos 73% of all statistics are made up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
