27,350 was announced somewhere else.
My understanding was what was announced at the stadium was the number of fans through the turnstiles but the second number was the number of tickets actually sold. The tickets sold number is the official attendance because thats how clubs have to report it.

So, are we trying to guess the attendance or the number of tickets sold?
Not that I'm upset or anything! Boo hoo!

We go by the official attendance, irrespective of how that is made up.
