I know I shouldn't larf but .............</p> <p>I'm old enough to have survived the 1966 world cup thingy - couldn't stand the tension of extra time and went out for a walk/smoke. Watched the end through the TV rental shop window, with a couple of dozen other 'shoppers'</p> <p>Nearest 'community celebration' experience to tht was walking around m' local shopping area the day after El Tony achieved the first of his general election wins. Down hill after that obviously. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=42843#post-122612 Mon, 14 May 2012 14:37:50 +0000 riesler 122612@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Has anyone interviewed those 'supporters' who left before the end?

The crowd figure is based on the number office workers reporting 'I was there, what a day, what a finish' conversations with their co-workers. The figure dwarfs the estimated 200,000 present when Man City last won the title in 1968.</p> <p>However, the crowd figure has a long way to go to feature in the top three biggest imaginary crowds. Some 400,000 are reported to have been present when Manchester United defeated Bayern Munich in the 1999 Champions League Final, with a similar number allegedly at the 'unforgettable' night when Liverpool came from 3-0 down to defeat Milan on penalities in the 2005 Final. The biggest made-up crowd is still the nigh on 1 million people who were apparently present at the Sex Pistols first ever gig.</p> <p>Such crowd figures are subject to upward revision over time though. Preliminary estimates are that the final crowd figure may grow to approach at least half a million once 'pub bore' conversations are included. </p>
