....the first time that the away support has outnumbered the home support?

Or is the game being played behind closed doors due to some FA punishment, which I have missed?

It is because it is being played in Welsh.

Attendance figures are not a great mystery, the answer has been apparent in all sports for a hundred years.

If your team is doing well, you get bigger crowds. It's that simple.

Should Cardiff progress in the cup, the crowds will increase.

Nobody likes to accuse fans of being glory supporters but that's just how it is, people like a spectacle, they like to say "I was there" at big games.

When we're not doing so well you'll get threads on here saying the football "aint what it used to be" or you'll see people blaming Slade's style or Tan's tyranny but the bottom line is that if Cardiff win games and move up the table, the crowds find their way back.

On this board a huge deal was made of the rebrand but we had very decent crowds in the Premier League, most people did not actually give two hoots what shirt colour their team were wearing or what Tan was doing backstage, they were just soaking in some glory.

Lol. I just wanted authentic crowd noises instead of the Welsh commentary so I'm watching it on mute. It's just like being there now.

I said similar whilst sat in this same empty ground this time 12 months ago v Colchester and was told the poor crowd was because of tan and the rebrand. He reversed it and it's had no effect at all and it won't until things improve on the pitch.

If your team is doing well, you get bigger crowds. It's that simple.If we're really going to rewind and question what others said, perhaps those who boycotted and/or marched might ask why they were told by some fans that any form of protest was futile, or even wreckless, as Tan would walk away rather than see us in blue. Not really helpful though now is it and most of these discussions seem more about proving we were right all along rather than objectively considering what's happened.
