As said on the comic book thread, I took and still do take great delight in perusing all things football such as crowds. Though I'm not sure why I need bother explaining myself to anyone. So, does that mean you know the exact attendance of every cup final? Or is it just certain ones? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottmcleanscontacts Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 So, does that mean you know the exact attendance of every cup final? Or is it just certain ones?Of course not. I didn't know that one to the exact number either but knew it was around the 56,000 mark.As I said, books are wonderful. Are you happy now?I really don't care though, and I'm perfectly happy to allow someone else to take the title in a quiz that is supposed to be a little bit of fun. I genuinely don't give a f**k about it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottmcleanscontacts Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 ClearlyYou clearly give more of a f**k. You also messaged me privately after one of the cup rounds a while back. I wouldn't have the time or will to even consider messaging someone on a forum about a score they post or otherwise.Slightly odd behaviour, something is obviously bugging you. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weird behaviour to ask you if you knew all 10 regarding the cup I wrote? considering that people posts include which ones they knew/guessed all the time, i'd say not. If you can't see that it is unusual to get a cup final attendance spot on and be surprised when multiple people question it, I can't help you I'm afraid 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arch Stanton Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 I could tell you the exact attendances for all of St. Mirren's cup wins (98000 in 1926, 108591 in 1959 and 51782 in 1987). Couldn't tell you any others though. Strangely I know the attendance for Celtic v Leeds at Hampden was 136505. The 1968 cup final was the first non-OF final since Saints v Aberdeen in 59 and I remembered the attendance was slightly more than half of the 59 final which always puzzled me as it was only 9 years later. hence my guess of 57250. Incidentally the next final to be OF-free was 1987! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or did you bother to message me when the questions didn't fall for me in the next round and I scored a four? No, I don't remember that being an issue.Now, I've already indicated why I posted the attendance I did. Tough shit if you're not happy with that.I'd now rather you pissed off and allowed me to get on with more important aspects of my day rather than some nonsensical debate about a stupid quiz. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd now rather you pissed off and allowed me to get on with more important aspects of my day rather than some nonsensical debate about a stupid quiz. I can confirm I did PM anyone that got a ten while still in the cup to see how many they knew, as I was genuinely interested to know how many of them you had fluked(as I thought it was a tough quiz). I didn't question you when you got a "4"(scoreboard said 3 but I let you have it) because funnily enough there was no debate whether you knew all them/fluked them as you got 7 wrong. Didn't think that needed to be explained, but here we are. I'll give you some time to cool down and collect all those toys you've chucked out your pram 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn't tell you what the 2013 cup final attendance was But just thought it was a bit unusual that he got it spot on for a cup final that didn't involve his team. Surely he can see why people were asking about it? His reaction hasn't helped to be fair 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snobot Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 You’d have to be a complete moron to Google and post the correct answer, to be fair, despite how wildly implausible it seems to the casual onlooker that someone might randomly pick the exact attendance of a Scottish Cup final from 52 years ago. Surely the discerning shitebag would maybe miss by a fraction to avoid raising suspicion. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJ2 Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 No chance [mention=73487]NJ2[/mention] knew it off the top of his napperf**k you! Of course I knew it, I even posted the links that told me it. Ah wait, did I know it before reading them? No. I can barely remember things that happened in my lifetime never mind before. Anyway, nice 9 to start the campaign in the middle, beige, league. Maybe I shouldn’t stand in on playoff duty next time... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
