Looking at the football results this morning in the newspaper I notice the Gills result was the only one without the attendance figures.Is there a reason for this ?

I don't think they announced it at the ground either and that did happen a few times last season but it always gets published in the end. Maybe they haven't finished adding up!

Can someone tell me is it right that they count all the season ticket holders irrespective of whether they are there or not then just add the ticket sales from the gate to get the attendance numbers?

Technically ST will be counted regardless of whether or not they turn up on the basis that the official figure is "the number of seats sold for the game". Of course, the club will count our stubs and determine internally a different number for the actual attendance.

Actually if you Google this there's a lot of info out there.
According to the articles I read, the official figures shouldnt include st holders who dont attend but some clubs are better than others at publishing accurate info

I thought the attendance was virtually the same as Saturday, I too didn't hear any figure announced.

The club cannot inflate or deflate the attendance - auditors, tax man and the local authority would be down on them like a ton of bricks
