I'd say you're way off with that one.
The stand was probably half full, at most. Only a few people scattered around the ground too. 800 is very generous.

They're really not. I made the relevant argument here.
I'll just update the figures:
After week 5, we've a league average of 1,370. The final league average last year was 1,221, which seems to say we're up 12%. However, the league average after week five last year was 1,727, which means crowds are down by an astonishing 20% on last year. Caveats apply to numbers like this so early in the season, but crowds are not up by any reasonable measure.
But your point is invalid, because of what John83 has noted. So far - compared to the same few games last year, which is vital - crowds are down, not up.
correct me if Im wrong I reckon there was around 500-600 fans at our game the other night...
Would have said about 700 as well if I had to guess. Biggest crowd so far anyway as you'd expect.
In fairness, 800 doesn't seem too ridiculous for Bray-Drogs. Maybe a bit less but not too much.
Any sign of updates on the averages or is that finished now?
I thought the clubs average attendances were there every week last season?
