Some of those games in the early 00s at HR were crackers - great atmosphere, especially a Boxing Day game, I think it was.Not me tbf, I got over defeats pretty quickly when I was that young. Started hating them we we dropped out of the prem and started playing them regularly... realised pretty quickly what a nasty, dirty team they were (this seems to span many years, managers and players, part of their DNA I suppose) and also what wankers their fans are. Can't stand the club tbh, up there as one of my most hated.
That said one of my best mates supports them so I realise not 100% of their fanbase are dickheads, but the % does seem high.

Yeah they used mine as well - I actually posted it twice and they used it both times.Not true - they are taken off here - my stuff is quoted directly there, as are several off here that I recognised.
I’m sitting here in stitches giggling like a kid. I’m in tears I’m laughing so much!
ENJOY!!!!

How about the last 30 years . You can't say we're comparable now going on the basis of a span of 100 years. In the same division in the modern era they are a long way ahead of us, as are Derby and Forest.Their long term average gate doesn't show that
Their long term average gate despite over 100 years in the top two divisions is 19k. Ours despite a lot less time in the top two divisions is 17k which includes 2 seasons playing outside of the city.
I remember the crowds in the mid-90s at HR being pitiful. I think a first game of the season v Wimbledon got something like 10,000.Factor in the last 20 years have absolutely knackered our all time average

Isn’t Linnell Tranmere or is that Clive?Fisher is a big Sheffield Wednesday fan. I think Linnell is as well
Pre sisu , we were above forest Derby and Leicester in the all time average, there were many clubs in the 80s and 90s with shite crowds tbh
Our attendances collapsed when as chairman Jimmy Hill decided to go all seater reducing the HR capacity by over 15000 at a stroke and the home capacity to about 19000 with a lot of those seats open to the elements and being put on existing terraces not purpose built stands. Your correct about the 60s though official figures regularly had 27/28000 but I’d say 10k could be added to the official figures every game.All these debates are a bit pointless but we did in the 60’s have huge attendances which completely collapsed when in the 70’s the industrial recession set in - we were in the top 8 attendances in the 60’s and by mid 70’s were second worst in the top flight
They've spent 100+ years in the top 2 divisions whereas we've only spent 95 in the league of which around 64 in the top two divisions. So, I think the long term comparison is right.How about the last 30 years . You can't say we're comparable now going on the basis of a span of 100 years. In the same division in the modern era they are a long way ahead of us, as are Derby and Forest.
It doesn't mean it always will be but as things are their hardcore support is far bigger.
They do sell a lot of pies up thereTheir fan base is substantially bigger than ours and that's a fact.
Clive says “ Tranmere” but actually means BlackpoolIsn’t Linnell Tranmere or is that Clive?
Now fuck off homeJust in case any are still looking on here…
Thanks for coming today

It was a sign of respectQuietest fans to come to the Ricoh for a good 10 years or so.
Somehow quieter than what they were in their home fixture.
