RoystonFoote'snephew Posted August 18, 2021 Report Share Posted August 18, 2021 No one publishes attendances any more. If you're at the game you might hear it over the tannoy, but thats hit and miss. Neither the BBC or Sky give attendance figures on their websites for matches so I try to scan local papers but it's not always successful. City used to break down the home and away fans figures and publish in the away fans section of the website but that's long finished. As I don't get to quite as many away games as I used to I like to know the size of City's travelling support (did we take up our full allocation). Similarly I'm intrigued by the numbers the opposition brings to the Gate. Like the printed programme attendances are fast becoming another football bygone.

Simon bristol Posted August 18, 2021 Report Share Posted August 18, 2021 Pretty sure i found them on the sky sports website for the blackpool game. Perhaps Its almost old fashioned to acknowledge supporters in the stadium these days?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can still get them online at BBC and sky PS we are still selling printed programmes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't appear on the phone versions as far as I can see.. I thought this year City's programmes were only available online and you would need to self print. I don't remember seeing a programme seller against Blackpool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tannoy is a brand name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, growing up in the 60s PA systems were called the Tannoy....horizontal Metal Traffic Cone lookalikes! Most probably made of Fibreglass now. However, you could hear what was being said whilst hoovering the astroTurf after a match. In my day we didn't have apps to write what we said, we had to write with a biro on a post-it and use sellotape to stick A4 pages together. If you were business minded, you could only dream of a powerpoint presentation from your memory stick instead of flip charts and sharpies. Those were the days! No hot drinks at half time unless you took your thermos. No bubblewrap either to protect items from accidents and if sellotape couldn't fix it, you were stuffed. We didn't have Nintendos as kids but we did have plasticine and for the more sporty, ping pong kits for the kitchen table. I couldn't see the attraction of hula hoops. Enough of this rubbish. I think I need an aspirin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not sure the programmes available are official. My mate was a programme seller for 30 years and was told he was no longer required this season.
