Guess the attendance vs Norwich Sat 29/4

[Norm]

OK gals and guys - last home game - damp squib or thunderclap?
Some would say it doesn't matter but I think it does.
I have no clue about the ESU but will assume it's open for the grand finale of a much more interesting season.

We didn't play Norwich last season because they were in one of their biennial (it seems) visits to the Prem, so no equivalent gate.

This will probably not help a lot but, hey ho!

Leon and Nick still tied for most wins with 4 each.
Rich had the closest guess with only 15 variance on the Wigan game, and had another Close Encounter of the 4th kind with a variance of only 51 today.
Gessa, Hawker, Swan, 60sUnited and leedsalex have also done a very creditable less than 100 variance.

Nick has captured the Close Encounter of the 5th, 6th and 7th kinds with his variance of 4,561 for the Blackburn Cup game.
How was he to know that there were more passengers in Leeds 'bus station than the 8,488 at ER.

Thank you all who have played the game - I've enjoyed having something to do other than twiddling my thumbs.

Thank you Norm for taking time to run the competition and your detailed stats for each player and game. Excellent job

Thank you Rich - I appreciate the thought.
