Hearts were last ahead of Hibs in 2017-18. Aberdeen were last ahead of Hibs in 2015-16 (still in Championship) and last ahead of both in 2004-05. Dundee Utd trailed Kilmarnock, Dundee, Motherwell and St Mirren last season. They haven't surpassed any of the "big 5" this century. EDIT: Interesting too look at the average Scottish League attendance per weekend since SPL expanded to 12 for 2000-01: 2000-01 ... 112,190 2001-02 ... 114,861 2002-03 ... 111,991 2003-04 ... 110,411 2004-05 ... 113,544 2005-06 ... 116,064 2006-07 ... 115,759 2007-08 ... 113,125 2008-09 ... 112,562 2009-10 ... 101,619 2010-11 ... 100,460 2011-12 ... 100,040 2012-13 ... 101,272 2013-14 ... 100,278 2014-15 ... 97,204 2015-16 ... 102,565 2016-17 ... 111,976 2017-18 ... 116,709 2018-19 ... 117,825 2019-20 ... 114,165 (to date) Interesting how little it varied, until the recession... at which it fell by about 10-12k, but again varied little, despite Rangers restarting in SFL3... until just 3yr ago when it returned to previous level.

eez-eh Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 Is that including the games with limited attendances? I was sure Ayr’s was higher than that thanks to getting bumped up by the derby game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which will bring them down a bit. Nothing's perfect when working with incomplete information of course. Just using Vale of Leithen as an example Total of 1494 divided by 12 games = 125 but there was two missing games, in which case 1494/10 = 149 On 19/12/2021 at 21:24, Ruthrieston said: The Vale missing gates are as follows: Civil Service Strollers 98 Gals Fairydean 140 East Kilbride 85 Headcounts for the two missing games were provided in the Lowland League average attendance thread Which gives a new total of 1719/12 = 143 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arch Stanton Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 It is quite incredible that, despite the Old Scum duopoly, Hearts, Hibs, Aberdeen, DU, Motherwell and St. Mirren (and others) are all showing an increase compared to last season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know where you're getting 4000/5000 from. It's youth teams that don't even play at the home ground. How would the new Rangers Colt/B team, (playing at Dumbarton's 2000 seater stadium) get 5000 in?

To be fair, all the Glasgow B teams games are away so getting a 100 plus at Dumbarton or Airdrie seems okay. Long gone are the days of a couple of thousand turning up at the average reserve game at Ibrox or Celtic Park when the big team was away. Btw the cheeky chappies sell season tickets for the B teams and for a few extra add on the ladies team. Obviously the B teams and Ladies are money losers all round. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
