coprolite Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 There is a way we could settle the whole who has more fans debate, and that is by using cold hard statistical facts as supplied by Hibeejibee. ’11-12 ’12-13 ’13-14 ’14-15 ’15-16 ’16-17, (to 1st Feb) Celtic 50,904 46,917 47,079 44,585 44,850 55,183 Rangers 46,362 45,744 42,657 32,798 45,325 48,981 Hearts 13,381 13,163 14,123 15,985 16,423 16,419 Hibs 9,909 10,489 11,027 10,170 9,339 14,858 Aberdeen 9,297 9,611 12,918 13,359 13,094 12,577 Dundee Utd 7,482 7,547 7,599 8,113 7,969 7,105 In conclusion. Aberdeen are the 5th best supported side in a pish backwater league nobody else in Europe cares about. Your statistics show the famous as having a higher attendance than hibs on average, mean and median. However, we are going for quality not quantity, so we win anyway.I can't do a smarmy gif so I will just say:"up ye" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a few assertions. Good stuff. Enjoy finishing below us again The facts and figures that show Hearts consistently draw bigger crowds than Aberdeen and have throughout history, yes. An assertion, meanwhile, would be thinking Abeedeen are guaranteed to finish above Hearts off the back of struggling through a European tie against some Bosnian no-marks who leathered your fans. 16 hours ago, Jacksgranda said: Does that mean you won't be slavering on about winning the Tennents Sixes? I'll maybe adopt that stance about only caring about football I've experienced/lived through - 1 UEFA Super Cup, 1 UEFA Cup Winners Cup, 3 League titles, 6 Scottish Cups and 5 Scottish League Cups. (And 2 Tennents Sixes.) The nursing home won't be far away for you, then. 16 hours ago, Tartantony said: What are you greeting about now? In the past 18 seasons Killie have out averaged Dundee 9 times and thats even with them having to put up with a lot of shite from their chairman which has damaged their attendances over the past few years. Even last season Dundee and Killie had the 7th and 8th highest attendances in the SPFL. Exactly were I placed them in my post. As for proving Aberdeen have a bigger fanbase I await your apology Dundee were out of the top flight for the best part of a decade while Killie regularly whore themselves to the Old Firm up to four times a season. Killie have won two trophies in the last twenty years, Dundee haven't won anything since the early '70s, but they're still and always will be the bigger club. Using their first cup final for 14 years which got every woodwork 'fan' going crawling out to the game as some sort of proof? They handed back tickets in both their finals with Celtic last season and had empty seats in their end for one reason or another. We had 40,000 against Gretna and were also limited by Hampden holding nearly 10,000 less than Celtic Park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were also limited to 43000 in 2014 and could have sold thousands more. I do remember Hearts only having 8000 in the 2012 semi and failing to sell more than 10000 for a semi final in their own city though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the scenario does come about @Mr. X that the stand isn't complete, would it still be played at Tynecastle with us restricted to one section to accommodate home fans, or would we be looking at a shift of venue? Can't see us willingly giving up the game in between Christmas and New Year, as we haven't had a home New Year game since 2014-15, and we normally draw in an excellent corporate taking for that day.

When Hearts get pumped their first 4 games and Cathro is almost punted it would be ludicrous not to accommodate them up at Pittodrie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Aberdeen are not happy about switching, I believe Budge said that Murrayfield would be used if Tynecastle is not ready. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be surprised if we agreed to switch, unless Hearts somehow managed to financially compensate us fully on the lost corporate sales for the New Year game. If it switched to Murrayfield, would it be a one off basis or would that mean playing all your first two rounds of home games there for "fairness"?

Funnily enough, any Hearts fan the same age as I am who started going to football the same time as I did (1963), would have seen their team win the exact same amount of trophies as you have - 2. With the added bonus of seeing their side lose the league on the last day of the season twice, get relegated 4 times and go into administration. I know which memories I'd rather have in the nursing home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
