Just a small note, but Aberdeen FC average attendances are up by 935 fans per game on last season, from an average of 11,994 to 12,929. If you assume that these supporters that fluctuate are pay at the gate fans then for an average ticket, receipts over the course of the season are 'up' approx £375k.
In fact, over the last few seasons in the SPL (relative to our peers):
Even though attendances under JC have sliden from his initial high (as with any new manager), they are still on average 2,540 higher than the season prior to him joining AFC. I don't doubt that crowds show a decline in the last few seasons under JC, however they are not exactly in freefall either as others would suggest. Comparing with our peers, they are probably the most stable attendance figures and this season they are back up to our 1995 - 2000 average of just under 13k.
