Guest Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 This may be a daft question and maybe have already been answered somewhere else, but why isn’t the attendance announced anymore? There used to be the announcement of the crowd and then “Derby county thank you for your support” but no more this season it seems? Anyone know what it was Yesterday (Blackburn)?

Gaspode Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 Perhaps they’ve finally realised that it’s a bit embarrassing when everyone gives themselves a round of applause for turning up….. Alph, Rammy03, JoetheRam and 2 others 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 Thanks Dave, I don’t do facetwitter or such. still strange they don’t make the announcement. interestingly Blackburn were the last before COVID and it was 26000 odd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Away fans had good reason to be singing "Time to go" on 80 mins! jimtastic56 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BaaLocks Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 (edited) Blackburn probably bought about eight hundred to a thousand, so 21k for a team at the bottom of the division with all that's going on (at DCFC and in the world) is a pretty sterling effort. I agree with the OP, that needs recognising rather than ignoring.

I agree with the OP, that needs recognising rather than ignoring. Especially when you compare our attendances with Blackburn's and many others, we are doing OK. Saturday was my first visit since Covid. Formerly there were around me a dozen or more ST holders who I had chatted to for between 10 and 20 years. Only two of us were there! I am hoping all of the others have either moved seats or are just not comfortable turning up at the moment. Missing them was worse than witnessing what happened on the pitch.

Crewton Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 Sixth in the attendance averages, despite the ticketing farce, administration, points deduction and Covid. That's pretty good going. Patrick Rams 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
