I got seven points for that match.  No backsies.   ;)

Ah yes, that makes sense thanks, edgysatsuma89.
No problem Louzie0, I mentioned it only because even with my limited eyesight after significant eye surgery 3 weeks ago (Reason that I couldn't attend), there appeared to be large numbers of seats not occupied. Thanks for all your good work again this season with GTC and GTG, look forward to next season !

I hope you’re feeling a lot better and that your vision has improved since your surgery, nordenvillain.
👍💐

Thanks for the kind words, and your question/observation about a disparity between what we saw and the final figure released! It’s not the first time.

I’ve had to go with the first realistic figure, usually the BBC’s, because otherwise the game grinds to a halt. We had to wait weeks for the outcome of Round 8.
One sports website reported a figure several hundred over capacity. 😁

The Club has been much better at releasing the figure since about Christmas, so I think we have to live with whatever that is! UTV!

I’m so pleased you’re enjoying GTC&G and I hope you have a lovely summer break after the Villa clinch the CL on Sunday. 🍺🎉

Excellent, Dave, glad the footballing/goal gods combined for your guess, this final round of the season!
