27,000

When i used to go with my mum a few years back, we also used to hope the attendance was something like 43,002. And when it was something like that, and ended in 2 i always used to say 'WE ARE THAT 2!'

It was a reasonable attendance for a game that basically meant nothing , when you consider our home Uefa attendances of the past.

TBH 27'000 for this game was fantastic because of the following

Hard times
Many have just forked out for new home and away shirts
Many have just bought season cards
Some have had to pay £50 for the first home game
Some have had to pay £50 + £20 for city card renewal
People on Holidays
Plus we have just seen a pre season tour that was Shite.
It was on the telly

This time of year if very expensive for most fans. If I was skint and had to choose between Paying to see a friendly or paying for the liverpool game I know what I would choose.

Well done to everybody that went but if you didnt , it does not make you any less of a fan.

Anyway LYNX. Its not about Quantity its about quality. We have some of the best fans in the world. Our stadium isnt full of tourists like what you get at Barca and Madrid and the the swamp.

Disagree on one point. Who, other than a rag, chooses to buy a shirt over seeing a game?

I didnt mean people chose a shirt over a game, I just worded it badly. I mean that it could be one and many factors as to why people MAY not go. anyway All utd fans have season tickets in the Stretford end. didnt you know? :)

Why well done? People only turned up for a game-hardly scaling Everest or solving world poverty is it!!!

Always amazes me when the attendance is announced at games and people clap-what are they clapping exactly? Its only a number being read out!

What a cracking attendance for a friendly. Well done to all that went.
