Recent Form (since Round 6)
Wasps - P10, W9, L1
Exeter - P10, W6, L4

Wasps have been in scintillating form including a massive win at Saracens. Exeter have been more patchy, with two defeats to Saracens since their win over Ospreys sealed the 1/4 final spot. Teams have met once in the AP so far, with Chiefs winning at the Ricoh.

Bottom Half

The location of the semi final for winners in the bottom half is much more complicated. Easiest thing to say is a Leicester/Racing semi would be held at the City Ground, Nottingham - otherwise the semi will be in France.

24k at Wasps and 21k at Leicester though, so no need to despair.

Indeed - 21,000 is far greater than any of the Pro 12 clubs could manage for a home quarter-final these days.  
Ah Pot, but is that really true?

When Edinburgh played Toulouse in the quarters of the then Heineken Cup in 2012, the attendance was almost 38,000.

Well I said 'these days'.  I wouldn't count 2012 within that term. But if Edinburgh end up with a home quarter next season and get the same numbers, then that would be a good achievement.  An even better one would be getting 10,000 regularly through the gates for league home games.

Like Sale, Worcester, Newcastle, Exeter are this season?

Lets be a little honest, bumper crowds come from big matches, in a tournament redesigned to compliment 2 nations those games are going to dominated by those 2 nations, equating to a few bumper crowds.

It's still an attendance worth noting. 38,000 for an Edinburgh quarter is some turn-out.

Edinburgh, and a few Pro12 don't get 10k home gates, but then neither do a few of the AP sides. Just a few examples from this season:


R1

Worcester v Saints 8,483

Newcastle v Gloucester 5,049

Sarries v Sale 7,231

Irish v Tigers 6,597

R2

Sale v Worcester 4,356

Wasps v Bath 10, 093 (just over the 10k, but thought worth noting)

Chiefs v Irish 7, 130

R18

Worcester v Irish 9,234

Sale v Tigers 7,687

Newcastle v Wasps 6,725

R19

Irish v Sale 5,541

Yes they did but quite a few of their other games have been around the 3.5k mark.

Atrocious attendance figures.

Munchkin very selective figures.

Sarries fan criticising another teams attendance. Very Happy

More people buy through groupon offers at the Allianz than season tickets.

If by 'very selective', you mean skewed to make AP look bad, you couldn't be more wrong. It's obvious that I simplt picked the first two, and the last two games. I did notice that those figures are recurrent throughout all games, but that that was probably the fairest sample.

Now, beshocked, please do show me how my figures have been 'very selective'. Many thanks...

Scottrf I already criticised the Saracens attendance but it's still not as low as others.

It's all relative.

Munchkin that's the lowest Saracens attendance this season in the AP, how can that not be selective?

Not from me. Just adding a bit of balance in comparing AP attendance to Pro12. Neither league is 'all that', when it comes down to the bare facts....

Selective in that you ignored any attendance not over 10k (bar 1) I guess.


Now no idea why 10k was set as a bench mark, or even why people felt the need to bring the AP into it, seeing as the discussion started between an Irish and a Scottish poster re Embra.

Theres at least 5/6 AP teams who average well under 10k, Exeter average around 5k don't they?

I never said Edinburghs attendances were great, I wasn't the one who slagged them for not getting 10k every week, when there are a ton of teams in the pro and AP who don't also!

So Edinburghs last crack at euro 1/4 finals is as relevant s Wasps last crack (This year) surely?

I think this is where the digression started, an out and out accusation that a pro 12 team couldn't manage 21k, where Edinburghs last 1/4 in similar comp was nearly double, AND they've had a 24k home game...

I have no idea what you were responding to, I have no idea why you chose the benchmark you did, I have no idea what was a few comments between Pot Hale and George has brought out such a feeding frenzy.

I merely tried to explain why someone would deem the data provided to be selective.

Seems to be an awfully high representation of the bottom 3 teams in the AP in your figures.

In R1 you have 10th,11th and 12th at home and Saracens' worst attendance of the entire AP season.

You don't think that's selective?

In R2 again you feature 10th and 12th.

In R18 - both 3 teams again

In R19 - 12th at home.

Do you not see how selective your attendance figures are? Basically focussing on the 3 bottom teams.

Surely something like a median attendance would be more representative. Highest/lowest don't really show much.

Hardly a feeding frenzy, and if it is, you're part of it Very Happy

Your comment, 'selective in that you ignored any attendance not over 10k', would suggest that you think I was being unfair in not including them, while also suggesting that you didn't understand the context of the conversation. I was just pointing you in the right direction. No need to thank me. I'm nice like that angel

Munchkin I don't get your point, so there aren't sides that have 10k + big deal, not every game is going to get 10k +.

Especially tougher for the bottom 3 sides.

Apologies, Exeter are actually at around the 8k mark, similar to Saracens.

No

Interestingly enough Exeter are looking to double the size of their stadium (to 20K). Hardly the actions of a team struggling to get support

Especially tougher for the bottom 3 sides.

Except he isn't attacking prem teams for not getting 10k, but responding to an accusation that Edinburgh should.

TBH - trying to compare attendances is pointless, whether it be between clubs, leagues or sports. They are what they are and most teams want more.

Exeter's AP attendances this season are almost 11k. That is enough to ensure they break even - but with a capacity of 12.5k, yes they want to extend and build facilities that will increase income over and above match days.

Do none of you bother reading the discussion before jumping in? You might actually find why I posted the figures....

It's not a big deal for me. Really it isn't. Read my previous comments if you don't understand that. I wasn't having a go at those below 10k.

As you seem upset that I left some of the Sarries attendances out:


7,231
7,932
42,680 (Twickers, and for Sarries, Worcester, Irish and Wasps).
10,000
10,000
8,742
8,432
9,877
9,749

That's your AP home games this season, so far.
