Is this assuming that all ST holders attended every game?
Regardless, good to lay down a marker to see how we're progressing.

Not 100% sure but I think the normal assumption is to treat a ST as a ticket sale for all games whether the holder attends or not. The significance of the 1872 games are plain for all to see from this. The Weeg sold out 100 % of their games at 7,351 per game save for the Scarlets game where the capacity was increased to 10,000 so averaged 7,540 over the season with not a single seat left unsold it would appear.

I don't think we ever troubled it but about 5000-5500 rings a bell

I thought we may have picked up a few more fans towards end of season. I would like to think we will average between 5-6k outwith 1872 this coming season, suspect Champions Cup will be a draw, although given the capacity at Murrayfield attendance to remain selective for many rather than a jump in ST sales.

7,065 for the Pro14 play off against the Blues at BTM was the highest non-1872 attendance this season. Highest regular season Pro14 crowd was 4,989 for the Ulster debacle.
Really jamesmatthew numbers when you consider the team served up 15 wins this season and played some really entertaining stuff. 1st half of the season at Myreside we were 3,300 to 3,800. By end of season back at BT Murrayfield it was up to the order of 3,800 to 4,500 by way of tone with the Ulster match and Playoff game at c. 5k and 7k.

You know what the Edinburgh public's mentality is though. They like their well established ideas and don't like change. So there are a lot of people who are comfortable with the 'Edinburgh are SteveWalsh' idea as something to ring true that they can then be cynical and slightly sneering at. It'll take several years of winning rugby before the standard response to talking about the team with someone who doesn't come isn't along the lines of 'aren't Edinburgh rubbish though?'
