@afinebalance43 Motherwell we're really low last season so if they keep up their good form they will likely be the highest % increase of any Premiership team.

The requested turnstile data for the League Cup 1/4 finals is pending.

I wasn't going to do the cups but the current situation with Rangers has made the turnstile counts quite interesting.

[SPFL Tix @SPFLtix]

Back from my 2 week holiday today so can now get the turnstile count analysis done and posted in the next couple of days.

[SPFL Tix @SPFLtix]

@SpoutHandle Yeah, information comes from the police authorities.

[SPFL Tix @SPFLtix]

I don't normally do turnstile counts for cup games but I think Ibrox will be interesting due to the current situation.

[SPFL Tix @SPFLtix]

Rangers & Celtic's opening league games of the 25/26 season had a combined 16,000+ fewer fans through the turnstile than there was tickets sold.

Thank you for your superb support, Hibees! 👏

[SPFL Tix @SPFLtix]

Today is the last day the authorities have to provide me with the turnstile counts for the opening games of the season.

If this is not provided by the end of today I will need to raise a further escalated request which could take yet more time.

[SPFL Tix @SPFLtix]

A change to how Rangers are structuring their Europa League ticket package.

Moving from a flat price across the stadium to tiered pricing.

Bit of disappointing one in Dundee today, down on last season.
