.....Plus the other fail safe is that an 1883 fan would have an extra couple of fingers than the average human

1883 reacting like they had just lost a World Cup final - 17/04/2013

Bishop Auckland FC - Champion non league club in the county of Durham for the 16th (SIXTEENTH) time.

According to Hilly, who bought his tickets at Heritage Park, there were no questions asked by anyone or even anything on the ticket that defined him as either a Darlington or Bishop fan.

they took my name,kingsway kid and richy tefal on first night of sales!wel be fine,your sales are now slowing down which was always going to happen,wont be as big split in the crowd as you are seeing through initial ticket sales

I've spoken to a few Bishop fans who live/work/shop in Darlo and have bought their tickets from the stall. Could be up to 50 Bishop fans in the Darlo sales.[/quote]

Just a drop in the ocean. [/quote]

Don't know, nobody asked them which team they supported, so could be up to 500 Bishop fans.

You've sold more than your average. You really won't sell many more.

Our sales are still steady away whereas, like Darlofan97 said, you have sold more than your average and will most likely struggle.

Have you sold more than your average? Didn't 1883 budget for 700 fans at home games? Going off that you've done well then. Don't think we'll struggle to sell more as historically there is always a late rush. We could well easily sell another 250-300.

you really dont understand bishop do you,youl see in just over 2 weeks

plus dont forget,its not all ticket so many will turn up on the day

We haven't sold more than our average, no. And that 700 figure was worst case scenario.

No, our average attendance last season was 2057 home fans.

Yes, 1883 have budgeted on crowds of 700.

I think 600 Bishop tickets sold is a tall order.

Let's not kid ourselves here. Your highest gate last season was 517.

And be disappointed.

Of course you do not have an average yet, you haven't had an ENL home game at HP. I thought the 700 figure was what 1883 had used for their playing budget, anything over that is a bonus, and would be used to strenghten the squad.
As for Bishops average then this will increase this season, as will all other ENL D1 clubs due to the 1883 game. 1883 are expected to have the largest fanbase, will have the biggest home attendance average, and will take a large away support. All in all great for 1883 and great for the ENL.

an average dont mean noting tho for 1 of games,ie odd gate at ours migt dip below 200,whereas the odd 1 are just over 500,but it dont mean our opponents bring over 300.and dont forget the only time yous topped 2000 last year in the conference in your home town was te fleetwood and york save the club games,youl not sell many more i dont think
