Title: How was your season attendance?
Post by: SP on May 30, 2023, 11:59:07 AM
Did anyone manage to attend every game? If so, fair play to you & you were well rewarded by the boys.

I'm proud to have a 100% home record to include friendlies & cups etc.

By contrast, I have a must do better 0% away record which is disappointing.

Not trying to exclude those who can't attend games but I'd be interested to hear what other people achieved?

Managed 11 out of 19 home games, no away games, no cup games. Hope to do better next season, depending on health (iffy this year).

I managed two home games (I live abroad). Fortunately, one was Chelsea (the other was Man City, which at least wasn't horrible).

Next year, for fun, I hope to get to a couple of aways, because they're often easier to reach (regular flights to Manchester/Liverpool/Newcastle from where I live).

I did 11 at home (pretty poor coz I got a season ticket) but I live over 100 miles from Fulham so evening games are a struggle, and there is always a SW London family member to use it. I did 1 away, Everton, as I like to do one new ground a season if I can... Goodison Park took me above 60 grounds (nearly all with Fulham) and I was worried they might go down - so it was my last chance to do it with Fulham before they moved to their new ground! To be honest, living so far from London, doing roughly one game a month is enough for me... which makes renewing the season ticket at such a price hike a difficult decision. Worth it though - just, because is means I can sit with friends and family, it's no fun sitting by yourself... as long as I can share the season ticket with others, I'll probably be similar for the foreseeable. 11/12 home and 1/2 away.

18 of 19 home league games (missed Chelsea aggh) , 2 home cup games, no aways this season as mobility is currently a bit dodgy.

Slow start with COVID and holiday depriving me of Liverpool and Brentford games.  Saw the other seventeen home fixtures plus Sunderland in the Cup.

Unfortunately only 11.  Have to fly into Gatwick but damaged achilles and 2 cataract operations put paid to the rest.  That's the problem with getting older although hopefully next season get to most home games.

Missed a couple of home games, but didn't get to any away matches, must improve that next season...

Managed to get my kids to their first FFC games:
Home: Forest
Away: Saints

I asked my daughter at the away game which ground she preferred. She said the Cottage. Why? Because it's home!

Kits ordered!

16 attendances in league and one in the cup. All at home.  In Mid season worked out how to get back home by rail from evening matches, to a very isolated part of Somerset. Hoping for a clean sweep next season

I've missed 3 home games in 48 years, 100% last season. The 3 games I missed were QPR 1-0 (daughter got married) Leeds 1-0 (family meal) Huddersfield 5-0 (won a cruise with Fred Olsen). During covid I got to both Liverpool and Newcastle!! So I have seen every goal Fulham let in at home since 1975 (where attendance was permitted). Respect to the guys that travel away.

Managed every home game but not a single away game - just seemed every time I could make an away game the guys I go with couldn't. Hope to get some in next season

I only got to 2 games. Brighton away and West Ham at home. Neither were good but we did beat Brighton. Great days either way. Oh I live in New York

I worked this out ahead of season ticket renewal.

15 home Premier League matches - would have been 16 but missed Brighton due to being stuck on the A3 all night. On holiday for Liverpool, wife's birthday one of the other matches.
1 home FAC match - Sunderland, p1ss take pricing to take the family to the Leeds match IMHO
2 away

And 32 non-Fulham matches

38 Games in total for me and Mrs B this season!
League: Home 19 -Away 15 (missed, Forest, Palace, Liverpool and Southampton).
Cups - Home 2 - Away 1 (missed Hull, Sunderland and ManU.
Plus 2 Home friendlies.
Best days for me personally was the Man C home took Grandson and Son (not first visit) visiting from USA first ever time in the UK and his first Football match, then Leicester home when my Dad joined us so we had 4 generations at the game, even got a shout out by Ivan at half time.
Can't wait for next season already! COYW

Afraid my age has got the better of me and I missed a couple of night matches at the Cottage, the rush hour motoring seems difficult and my legs are not too good..
After 75 seasons I have decided not to re order my season ticket but to discontinue regular visits to the Cottage and instead become an armchair fan, it is going to be difficult but I guess it comes to most of us.

Post by: SP on May 31, 2023, 07:26:45 PM
Some great numbers here, particularly impressed by the attendance at the foreign friendlies.

I didn't spot a 100% season record as yet but I'm sure there must be a few.

Impressive!  (Apart from Fred Olsen  ::wink:: )

I missed one home game (Forest) and did 3 aways - fairly typical of recent seasons.  Mind you, from where I live, the Cottage is virtually an away game!  ::scarf::  ::scarf::  ::scarf::

14 home league games, 1 home FA Cup game, 3 away league games, 1 away FA Cup game (Sunderland).

2 of the away league games plus Sunderland enabled me to complete the current 92 (not that that was the question ::wink:: )

Went to only 3 home and 5 away, not bad from Ireland, and had 2 heart attacks, triple bypass surgery, will do more next season as recovery is going well

all home games including the friendlies we live 250 miles from the Cottage so a lot of time and expense but it was worth it apart from the Newcastle game, don't do away games, can't stand for 90 minutes and after the embarrassing behaviour of a  significant few at games last season decided to pass on them
