You've got to laugh. Going into details and percentages as well trying desperately to convince himself, hilarious stuff man! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stand holds 3000 with 2150 of that in the upper tier, as you can see pretty much full. We'll almost certainly have more fans across the two games - isn't this when you usually trot out the line that this is because you 'don't care' and it's 'not a derby'? I wouldn't be sure about that. You play us at new year at East end park. If both clubs are still this close together in the league you will probably see a crowd at that game which you wouldn't fit in your stadium. Also a quick Google on average home attendances see us almost 800 on average ahead of you. Granted this game this Saturday will close the gap slightly and we've had the return fixture at ours already. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poster on the GPG I think (sillyhat?), his brother passed away and it was his flag, so he takes along the flag, I think. Nice flag, almost as nice as this one. 34 minutes ago, NavyBlueArmy1876 said: And if by 1300 you mean 1800-2000 then yes you are correct.

Stand holds 3300 I think, certainly holds a wee bit more than 3000 I'm sure. It looked about 1800 ish, maybe. Understable you'd use that photo because the quality is a bit glum. But the end sections got emptier. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hate to be drawn into crowd w**k arguments, but if you believe that looks like 1800 out of 3300 seats filled, the Fife education system must be in a worse state than I imagined. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will still have an average higher home attendance than you lot even if Saturday sells out. Merely pointing out the 800 gap will reduce slightly after Saturday once the team from the big city has paid a visit. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craigypar Posted November 3, 2022 Share Posted November 3, 2022 I think we just need to accept that we're similar size clubs with a similar following. One is sometimes up or down on the other depending on team performance. But we smell better. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's almost like, having looked at that stand for over 20 years I'll have a better grasp of crowds within it than you. As has been pointed out the top part holds 2100, and its not full, not even massively close. If I were you, as well as crowd wanks I'd hate to be drawn into issues of education, because you sir are a fucking imbecile. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoBNob Posted November 3, 2022 Share Posted November 3, 2022 (edited) As an aside I see the Falkirk fan who chucked a smoke bomb at the first fixture has had a football banning order for 16 months aswell as 120 hours community service. https://www.falkirkherald.co.uk/news/crime/falkirk-fan-who-threw-smoke-bomb-during-dunfermline-match-banned-from-all-grounds-in-uk-3903498 That should be pushed by both clubs, undoubtedly tomorrow you'll have fans doing similar, it's just sheer fucking stupidity.

Good. I’m actually fine with smoke bombs - imo they add to the atmosphere and are usually let off in the “standing”, young team section of the crowd, so no weans choke their lungs out. You go from an alright c**t to an utter c**t when you throw one though. Edited November 3, 2022 by bairn88 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s no debate on who lobs the more creative stuff though. Have to concede that one to our three-standed pals. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiddy Posted November 3, 2022 Share Posted November 3, 2022 2 hours ago, CallumPar said: More than 1500 sold in the away end now. Which is more than the 1300 that Falkirk brought to East End earlier in the season. Good effort from the Pars fans, no doubt be close to selling out the north stand come Saturday. 1 hour ago, NavyBlueArmy1876 said: And if by 1300 you mean 1800-2000 then yes you are correct.

Maybe this is why you struggle to sell as many tickets? 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
