There were loads of empty seats though. Even around us at the centre of the Trinity there were rows with only one or two regulars. The same with Witton Lane and the Lower Holte.
"Loads" . Not 12,000 though.

I’m freezing this for 48 hours before going ahead with GTC one way or another, tomorrow, as points hang on the resolution! Today’s Sunday, which may have affected access.

I note everybody’s comments so far.

At least 35,000 there. At least.
35075 to be precise.

Hey Louzie0, I've been off line until now, can't we make a new rule that says first round of a cup comp at home doesn't count until we progress to LC2 or FAC4 (I.e. the rounds where interest perks up). And apply retrospectively for this season?

Oops we aren't progressing in either!!!

Re: GTC FACup EXTRAS POINTS for Saturday January 5th!
« Reply #94 on: January 07, 2019, 06:02:07 PM »
Here are the points from FACupEXTRAS!

I’m going with the published attendance figure which is unchanged from Saturday on the AVFC official site as well as the BBC.
Questions about the figure have been posed on @AVFC and @AVFCSupport with no response so far but we need to move on with GTC.
The fairest thing to do at this stage is to stick to our way of playing the game and credit every team that entered the round.

So, the points are:

2: Caribbeanvillan and ldavfc4eva!  8) 8)

A point for entering goes to:
Legion, Villa ‘cross the mersey, thick_mike, CDBWF, LondonVillan, The Moose, wittonwarrior, Axl Rose, Brassneck, Tugby Villain, jimmygreen, SashasGrandad, darren woolley, 260475, Godfrey Brian, Reuben, frank. Towser, ironmaidenmania, PGW, Walmley_Villa, TheTimVilla, simon ward 50, Three Spires Villa, JUAN PABLO, CT, Stu82, eddiemunster, WALTERS WARRIORS, TelfordVilla, Sid1964, Comrade Blitz, Richard, Nunkin 1965, Olaftab, Skerra, dave shelley, simboy, The Edge, robbo1874, MillerBall, JD, johnboy, Rotterdam. Charlie8182, Rotterdam 82, Fasth56, clash city rocker, berneboy, pooligan, PWS, QuintonVilla, mjlions, littleoldme, Woofles TWD, Dazvillain, amfy, AlexAlexCropley, Gregorys Boy, West Derby Villan, eamonn, maidstonevillan, RudyCan’tFail, four fornicholl and Louzie0!

And They All Count!

67 teams entered this round. There was a double Guess and an edit, with reply.

Thanks for your patience and sorry we didn’t get an explanation that fitted what a lot of fans saw around them, on Saturday, but GTC carries on!


I have found a few rounds where we all got a shock, looking back over the last couple of seasons, and almost everybody ended up with 1 point. Usually it was a very low figure, or away, like:

GTC 16/17:  Villa v Barnsley 26,435
                   Villa v QPR.      27,154
GTC 17/18:  Wigan v Villa.   18,108 ( LCX)
                   Boro v Villa.     11, 197 (LCX)
                   
I will update Divisions with the QPR points as well, this week and it’s great to see some teams reviving themselves this round, whatever the score!

GTC14 Villa v Hull will be launched soon, so keep your 👀 on H&V!

UTV!

Thanks again for doing this for us Lou.  Don't stress yourself if things go belly-up from time to time.  You should be used to that anyway being a Villa supporter.
