More Os fans than Spurs/Chelsea/Arsenal combined?

Post by RientO »

More Os fans will see their team in a final than Spurs, Arsenal and Chelsea combined.

FA Trophy Final - guesstimate 25,000+ Os fans
Champions League Final - 16,613 spurs fans
Europa league final - less than 8,000 tickets sold to Arsenal and Chelsea fans combined

Who’s the Daddy now? :D

Another doing on same situation could be Orient fans fail to sell out their final allocation unlike Spurs ( & in due course Arsenal & Chelsea).

Or how about Spurs, Arsenal & Chelsea fans show more dedication by travelling further to watch their teams in cup finals than Orient

It's all meaningless spin as you are not comparing like with like.

How about Orient fans are more loyal because they watched their team in 23 home league games whereas Spurs etc only went to 19 home league games?

You were doing so well yesterday, but now you're back to your old, negative against Orient neutral ways.

Shame.

They got 5,800 each but both clubs are struggling to sell them. Pretty difficult to get to Baku, so not a lot of take up.

Can't imagine why lots of Orient fans are going to a cheap final in London and fewer fans of other teams are travelling long distances with inconvenient travel after being given limited ticket allocations.

When you support Orient, we need to use any type of stat that gives us bragging rights. Hell, the chance only comes along every 50 years. So I’m with the OP. Best supported team in London.

No. As I wrote a guesstimate. And put the ? in the subject.

Based on the blocks in the lower and middle tier being fully sold and the upper tier now at block 538 (Over the Cray Valley section in the lower tier) it should be 25,000+ but that is tickets sold and not accounting for those who bought group tickets with 7 or 8 kids who won't use the seats. Will only be sure after the event.

In the end I think even this quite funny stat won't end up working out.
I would think that most Spurs/Chelsea/Arsenal fans that have bought a ticket for the final would use it, or sell it to someone that does.

Also think a fair number of our tickets have gone to those pesky phantom kids.

Not even sure it's just phantom kids, bucket loads of tickets being offloaded online for people who bought up loads immediately then found out their friends/family etc didn't really want to go.

Arsenal & Chelsea are selling day trips at £979. In & out on the day includes coach airport to stadium. Plus you need to buy a visa in advance around £30

Nothing negative in what I posted at all.

Simply poi ting out statistics and figures can be spun anyway you like to make any point you like. Especially when not comparing like with like.

This isn't spin.

"More Os fans will see their team in a final than Spurs, Arsenal and Chelsea combined." is quite likely, even if not confirmed as a fact yet The subject was abbreviated and a ? added as "Likely more Os fans will see their team in a final than Spurs, Arsenal and Chelsea combined." would have been far too long a subject and less intriguing. Maybe I could have put "More Os fans than Spurs/Chelsea/Arsenal fans combined..." and then put "...are likely see their team in a final this May 2019." to be totally correct. The subject title was intentionally frivolous as there is no way there are "More Os fans than Spurs/Chelsea/Arsenal fans combined". Is there?

Besides it doesn't convey the most important fact that Orient have won more trophies than West Ham, Spurs, Arsenal and Chelsea combined so far this season.

I guarantee Spuds & Scousers will be snapping up £2.5k-£5k tickets for.Madrid as we speak.

Theyll have close to 21,000 each at the final
