Clubs in this league in Size Order

[The Southbank]

Fulham are a bigger club than most people give them credit for. Lovely part of the world as well. They'll always be in the shadow of QPR and Chelsea for attracting support, though.

 

[HertsWolf]

Well no, we had a very, very long stint as an established top tier club. Now, yes we are stuck down in League One, without a stadium and a future that is unpredictable. Disheartening? Yes, but it was never our stadium anyway, despite being built for us.

SISU won't be around forever.

But you will soon have your own railway station with an hourly service to Bedworth. Even London clubs don't have an hourly service to Bedworth.

This puts you in the big time. You might want to see if Sixfields is still available.

And Brentford and AFC Wimbledon.

Chelsea have always reigned supreme in that part of the world. When I was growing up they were a big drain in my part of the world as well.

These are all the time averages up to 2012:

By 36th, that ranks us lower middle mid-table in the Championship, which is where I'd have us down on club size, so makes sense really.

 

[markwwfc1992]

Bradford PA bigger than Bradford City?
Wigan Borough bigger than Wigan Athletic?
Leeds City bigger than Swansea

West Brom bigger than Middlesbrough Ironopolis?

Interesting that, pretty fair reflection on how I would list it to be honest, bar the odd tweak here and there.

My favourite part in this table is that after all the work and analysis, the author saved time by abbreviating "Total" to "Tot". Clever.

Oh and that although Glossop North End were only in the Football League from the late 1890s until WWI and is the smallest town to have ever had a top tier team (1899-1900), they still have a higher average gate than Macclesfield Town. To be fair, there's always been fuck all to do in Glossop, but even so...

 

[StevieEvansRedNWhiteArmy]

Our average is now 8,299.

Thus...

MK Dons > Rotherham United

Ours will be higher just as yours is, seen as post 2012 we've been at NYS.

 

[StevieEvansRedNWhiteArmy]

The list is from 2008:

http://www.owlstalk.co.uk/forums/index.php/topic/173108-all-time-average-attendances/

Rotherham's average between 2009 and 2015 is 5,887:

2015 - 10,240
2014 - 8,450
2013 - 7,954
2012 - 3,498
2011 - 3,667
2010 - 3,817
2009 - 3,583

MK's average between 2009 and 2015 is 9,303:

2015 - 9,452
2014 - 9,047
2013 - 8,612
2012 - 8,659
2011 - 8,512
2010 - 10,290
2009 - 10,551

...so actually your 'all time' average has gone down and ours is over 1,000 higher.

The post with the figures says up to 2012!!

Where 2008 come from?

Read the owls talk link, although it was posted in 2012 he says the table was dated 2008

Overseas supporters is possibly another good way of looking at this! This website might help!

Considering how up Bristol Rovers are, I'd suggest some sad bastards may be signing up from this country and claiming to be overseas.

I'm going to have a look for a thread on their fans forum now.

We have the 'East Gang'. We win.

They're probably all fighting against each other now!

Max is serving isn't he?

Probably, this is the bloke who shared a picture of himself holding two handguns and who I thought was going to hit me when I mentioned we'd played shit.

P.S. Turns out Max is alive and well cos he was active on TCR earlier today.

 

[Camdenite]

I guess most of ours are Wombles who stuck with us.

British Virgin Islands though!

This thing is obviously being corrupted by some fans, but that's genuinely funny.

Yep, I think he said he's in some sort of Dad's Army style Home Guard. Obviously a nasty situation out there.

Just to counteract that, I think it is worth mentioning that the East Gang isn't entirely comprised of menacing looking Eastern European blokes...

Wrong.

Your average gate now stands at 7,414. MK Dons average is now 7,453. They've overtaken you and you are now officially a smaller club than MK Dons.

Moving to Meat Pie Stadium has added 56 to your average. Mate, they're flocking to watch you. Fortunately, there are Rotherham Owls and Rotherham Blades and presumably Rotherham Spireites who club together to go and watch some decent football of a weekend.

So we've improved by 56 in a time period which included 4 years at Don Valley, pretty amazing if you ask me.

It would be.

 

[StevieEvansRedNWhiteArmy]

Ours is actually 8,299 and Rotherham's has gone down, not up. The list is from 2008 you virgin.

How dare you pull Hertswolf up...
