Dale's Cup Crowds 12:14 - Jan 30 with 786 viewsmikehunt

Something else in today's paper was that we are third in a list of teams whose crowds increase for cup games. This is in a list of 100 and odd teams who have been in the football league over the past ten years. We are behind Stevenage and Chester. Our cup crowds averaged out at 43% higher than our average league gates.
The article was about how teams and their crowds valued cup competitions (another listing was how many team changes a club made from a previous league match)
Wigan were highlighted in particular as their cup crowds were 40 something percent less than for league fixtures; despite the cup giving them the most glorious day in their history.

The worm of time turns not for the cuckoo of circumstance.
