california_saintee Posted August 8, 2013 Report Share Posted August 8, 2013 The crowd sounds pretty quiet on the radio, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AthensSaint Posted August 8, 2013 Report Share Posted August 8, 2013 Crowd are being muted by the broadcast. Huge noise at the start but you couldn't hear the commentators. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Havana Saint Posted August 8, 2013 Report Share Posted August 8, 2013 I certainly think there were more than 8,594. 2,000 empty seats? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denzil Posted August 8, 2013 Report Share Posted August 8, 2013 I certainly think there were more than 8,594. 2,000 empty seats? We were saying exactly the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wendy Saints Posted August 8, 2013 Report Share Posted August 8, 2013 We were saying exactly the same. Do they count the kids who get in for free? Didn't look like 2000 empty seats to me either?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abernethy Saint Posted August 8, 2013 Report Share Posted August 8, 2013 There was absolutely no way there were 1500 empty seats at McD tonight. So either someone miscounted, or.......oh.......ssssssshhhhhhhhhh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Attila the II Posted August 8, 2013 Report Share Posted August 8, 2013 I'll put my hand up and say i got in wrong in whinging about the price for tonight. The club got it spot on as there was more than in the rosenborg game and hopefully have not made a loss out of this fantastic european adventure. In brown and wright we trust.

dave mc Posted August 9, 2013 Report Share Posted August 9, 2013 The club needed 5000 at both euro games to break even,so we're in profit for them,and the Hearts crowd would be a bonus too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Posted August 9, 2013 Report Share Posted August 9, 2013 Do the fancy padded seats count? If it's a clicker on the turnstiles that records the attendance then maybe not as I'm sure they're all allowed in the main entrance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AthensSaint Posted August 9, 2013 Report Share Posted August 9, 2013 Okay wasn't going to bite BUT this type of comment boils my piss . Not any St Johnstone fan is a "Glory Hunter" regardless if they only turn up once a week, month, season, decade or just go to european games. I would like to thank every last person who turned up last night that is not a regular. I would like to thank all the guys who were huddled around their laptops from all corners of the world listening to MySpazz Radio commentary, some at ridiculous hours in the morning. I would like to console with the saints fans who couldnt afford to come because they have school uniforms to buy, bills to pay or whatever - you are just as much a Saints fan as anyone else. I would like to thank all the mum's who know the money would be better spent but raked through their purse and gave it to their kids to go to this "special" game at McD last night. Regardless of the defeat (or mugging as others have described it), I am more proud of my club than ever before and more proud of my fellow saints fans in Perth, across the country and all around the world. What a noise the guys made last night and we thank you for representing all of us that could not be there. ryangordon86, rik2304, oldsaintee and 14 others 17 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is the only thing I can think of, the hospitality guests go through the front door don't they? Some of the padded seats are season ticket holders who have to enter through a turnstile.

garydavidson Posted August 9, 2013 Report Share Posted August 9, 2013 I have been at the two european games and the league opener, not a chance I can afford another trip up to Perth till next month. Sure it will be the same for many that don't have a season ticket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a first.....I actually had a lump in my throat reading a post from Athens Saint Very well put that man (p.s. - Rikardo says you are a knob jockey ) Edited August 9, 2013 by Edstar101 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhq Posted August 9, 2013 Report Share Posted August 9, 2013 The 'glory hunters' will be gone by the time we play Ross County Sad but true. So true As Athens Saint and garydavidson have pointed out, there are many valid reasons for people not being there every game. There are other, people working, people playing amateurs/juniors on a Saturday. To label fans of St Johnstone "glory hunters" is absolutely terrible - would you rather that only those who attended the Hearts game (and I was one of them before you ask) were allowed in last night. Like I said, there are many reasons for folk not attending every game - posts like these are another reason to add to the list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
