Think it was approx. 13500 with roughly 400 away fans.

13,604 including about 400 Raith fans.

More like about 11K I reckon.

I thank you.

Think thats our lowest league gate of the season.

Decent attendance considering its a midweek game after we've already won the league.

Apart from giving youth a runout and keeping high standard of getting results it was really meaningless for us. Raith on another hand, relegation playoff spot favourites in my eyes.

No disrespect to Yogi but they are actually playing worse under him. We played a massively changed team in a relatively unused formation and they looked poor.

I thought about 9K. 10K at best. No way was if 13K, although hospitality looked as full as I've seen it for a long time, given if was Raith as the opposition.

So, I reckon our 11,700+ ST holders were counted "as being there" with approx 1500 to 2000 walkups.

I think a lot of people bought hospitality for the Raith thinking yesterday would've been the day we won the league.

Definitely. And about time we counted the sold season tickets in the official attendance.

Turned out not to be a meaningless game at all, well played Lenny for giving so many fringe players a shot, but I understand why the crowd was lower than usual.

The crowds have been great this season.

Can sometimes be harder to set up against as coaches/players don't know what they're up against.

I'd never have imagined Hibs having a season where 13,600 was the lowest attendance, especially while playing in the second tier.


Who knows what the crowds could have been by now if we'd won the Cup 20 years ago :wink:

The longer the barren run went on the bigger the reaction.

It was also down to the Yams obsession. They have it a big issue by non-stop jibes. That has come back to haunt them.

Anyone know the average attendance during the season when Le God and Russell et al got us promoted?

[Lancs Harp]

Hibs average attendances through the years.

Just out of interest does anyone know the story behind the 875 gate in 1954/55? Re aranged mid afternoon midweek game or something?

To put how well we are doing attendance wise into context, Im 53 years old and Hibs have only averaged more than this season once in my lifetime. Pretty amazing effort.
