Hi Jonny
I'm well aware that the On Course crowd was restricted to 12,000
I think all readers knew that
My point was that the Spin doctors are at play, that's why the Topic heading was "Selective Reporting"
They issue a Press Release saying "total T/O on Cup Day was up"
Did you see a Press Release stating "total T/O on Show Day was down"?
No, you didn't
I would bet the if the Cup Day Off Course had been up, but the total overall was down, that the Press Release would have been "Off Course T/O on Cup Day was up"
I still worry for the future. Disregarding Covid, the emphasis on Off Course T/O, aligned with bulk funding of Clubs, will see efforts to promote On Course attendance wither, and one day it will bite us in the bum so to speak
