Season ticket seats are always reported as sold, because essentially they are. If thousands of bright sparks don't want to attend (or give to others) something they have already paid for then it's not the fault of the club.

It can easily be calculated on turnstiles for official footfall, however.

that's not the gray area though and no one has a problem with that. it gets tricky when tickets sold is presented as equal to attendance, when it often isn't the case as the study shows.

This is interesting, West Ham says their average attendance is 55309, while actually it's closer to 42-43k, that's a nice lie to their sponsors :D Wonder how many unused tickets there are at Juventus Stadium each game, pretty sure we report the sold tickets too, not the actual number of people in the stadium
Arsenal are somewhat famous for this as well. Wonder why the BBC couldn’t get any comparative data there?

Such a joy to wach Chelsea this year. Sarri is a very good coach. Lucky for them. Theyll either win it or finish second. It depends on City.

no idea how Chelsea convinced Hazard to stay with them and don't throw a fit, but so far it's working out really well for them, 5 goals and 2 assists in 307 minutes played is fucking crazy. apart from Piatek and Babacar I don't think anyone in Europe has better stats per minutes played than Hazard and this is a dude that clearly wanted to leave Chelsea a few months ago
