Away attendance tonight?

[MrFrost]

Well the sources for the information were both clubs official programmes. I have them here.

So the Barnsley V Doncaster Rovers programme on 24.9.05 states the attendance for that game, even before the game as been played? That's like something at Hogwarts? I could agree with the first game at Oakwell but never in a million years was their away end two thirds full for the 2-0 win.

[MrFrost]

The mrs is a Barnsley fan and season ticket holder so I thought I'd have a look through her programmes. Also in our programmes it states the same figures. Why would both clubs publish incorrect figures?

[Jim Dobbin]

The Barnsley v Rovers programme l have from the first two games only publish the overall attendance, its not split down into home and away figures.

I have somewhere on my computer a photo took from the Barnsley end of second visit there, and there is no segregation half way across the stand as you mentioned. I'll see if I can dig it out and post it on here.

scroll down to pics of the away end. Thats the one you said had 3,700 there, so our second visit had more, there weren't that many at Oakwell when Rovers won 2-0.[

Double post

[MrFrost]

There were. Trust me. There was no segregation either, I remember it well. I was sat around where the black netting is on that picture.
Looks well over half full there aswell.
