Just don't quite get why a team at this level would announce attendances as higher than they actually as it would ultimately cost them money tax wise?

I couldn't care less what Forfars attendance is but what is announced is not what the taxman bases any liability on. You can announce whatever you like and declare something different to the taxman. I could tell everyone i earn £1m a year but the taxman isn't going to demand I pay tax (or VAT if I was a business) on those figures. He'll base my liability on what I declare to him by official means. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aberdeen Cowden Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 I haven't a clue why they do it doesn't make sense. I've been there often enough to get the impression that the reported figure is not correct. Maybe they include season ticket holders which would explain some of the difference. I've been to Gayfield when there have been 600+ there and also to Forfar when a similar figure has been reported. There's no comparison. And for Forfar fans, it isn't an obsession, I just find it strange. Don't know why you get upset it's just an observation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forfar and their makey up crowds are sitting there. They'll need to up it to get top spot.Fwiw our crowds really haven't been great this season in comparison to the last few. Hopefully pick up if we continue to be up and around the top of the league. Fully expect us to be number 1 or atleast 2 by the season end, like always.

gordon9736 Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 Good to see Elgin's attendances are holding up despite poor home results. We don't have derby games to boost crowds and once we get home form sorted, crowds will improve. You just have to look at the run-in at the end of last season to see that.

On the other hand you don't really have many clubs too close by either. Aberdeen and ICT aside, even Aberdeen is a bit of a trek, too far for most to travel to see the Glasgow clubs too. Here you've got fans of Aberdeen/United/Dundee and the OF that regularly leave town to go watch them. You're right though, crowds have been good up in Elgin which is good to see, was surprised to see that ourselves and you lads had a similar sized population, think we're just slightly ahead.
