Still doesn't explain how they can claim 58,420 attendance when the commentators said it looked more ike 28,000 |
It was but the away fans are always the most dedicated, the equivalent Arsenal fans would have been at home too.
Obviously the feeling around the club is quite bad at the moment which played into it but it wouldn't have been that low without the weather issues. Greater Anglia and TFL Overground heading north were running yesterday and today they're running a reduced service. In the end people can get home but it would have took longer and be less reliable so clearly many skipped a game they knew we would lose, that would be below freezing conditions and take them an age to get home.
Arsenal always announce who brought tickets, not the attendance, clearly because the latter makes it look bad.
