Any guesses? 13,111 is our lowest league attendance against Bradford (televised). I can't decide whether people will turn up or not...
Go on then...13,500
Widnes might fancy their chances so could bring a few more sensing an upset.
I hope our own support holds up. I shall certainly be making the trip as usual.
mrs lam.the safety cert states that the ground holds 25000 i saw seats in the corners empty from top to bottom i can not be sure how many in each row 4 i think.so count the number of rows x 4 subtract them from 25000 and come up with 25004.[which school did you go to]
I was in the west stand for this one and Oldtimer is quite right - the North Stand was about 90% full with 2 strips virtually full length down both sides. There's no way 25,004 attended, but that doesn't mean 25,004 tickets weren't sold
See what I mean by this board. There's no need to speak to anyone with any tone of arrogance on here and I don't appreciate it. If we're going to get factual on figures then the official stadium website says there are only 24826 maximum capacity. http://www.jjbstadium.co.uk/frameset.html

Does this figure include the wheelchair helpers and all the corporate boxes? It's already been mentioned that the unreserved seating areas have to have empty sections, that would probably account for the empty bits on the sides of the North Stand that someone referred to. Also, I think the attedance includes total number of season tickets sold even if the season ticket holders don't go, although don't konw if that's true or not. There were some of us who were not able to go to the Saints game for genuine, nothing-to-do-with-not-supporting-the-team reasons.

The safety certificate does not neccessarily reflect the number of seats in the ground - that's the figure you need to interpret the spaces we saw with a 25,004 attendence.
You would hope that the certificate may state the same capacity as there are seats, but with unreserved seating etc, this will not be the case.
PS, do they count the players - if so theres an extra 34 + coaches, watercarriers, physios etc. right there!
there can be no reason for lying about how manny people actualy turned up as wigan will have to pay tax on the amount.it would have been in wigans intrests to say only 15000 on the ground then they would only pay tax on 15000 people.
