We can't really change the way we calculate numbers until other people do. It was comparison of crowds with London Irish that started this. They counted tickets sold, we counted bums on seats. We didn't look so good by comparison, so we changed to their method.
Why are we particularly concerned about being compared to other clubs?
I'm sure the club have both sets of data (and let's face it they care more about tickets sold) so I'm not really sure why there needs to be any jiggery-pokery about it.
For yesterday's game, 7,300 looked about right.
