Don’t agree. Lots of games on Sky and towards the bottom of the table. Do a club like Southampton sell out everywhere?

Generally, yeah. Only your real smaller clubs like Burnley struggle to sell out.

Playing big names like Ronaldo and Salah most weeks, coupled with the fact there's fewer games would mean the novelty would last.

We'd grow a fanbase overnight. You only have to look at Stoke, Wigan, Bolton etc. Doubled their crowds and generally maintained it.

You’re spot on. It’s not 1999 any more. We’d have all kinds of new fans tagging along.

Get relegated and it dies away, but not in the Prem.

You turn on a Prem game and it's always sold out.

The whole of Coventry and Warwickshire would want tickets.

Then, for games like Burnley, you'd attract fans with cheaper tickets.

They travel very well thats always been a given.

In that top 5 away attendances, brum amd cov have played away at luton. Which we sold out in 2 hours. Brings the average down.

Looks like well in excess of 2000 for Hull.

Also I see Blues been an allocation of 5000 for their trip to ours midweek.

No one local will give us close to 5,000 will they? WBA is 2,000 max

Given that we are 5th for away support and 8th for home support in the league, that is really encouraging I would say.

As the season goes on and we hopefully keep playing well, it might even get better too.

Off topic, do we still hold the record for the biggest away crowd at the Emirates?

Think we took 5-6k to the Emirates. Plymouth, Leeds and Ipswich had previously taken 9k I believe.

Actually attendees is half that number, they were given 2 tickets each so they could make themselves comfortable. We're also allowed to use any phase twos in attendance as a footstool.

I have a slightly different number to these , probably the Hull discrepancy.

However, we've played the 2 smallest allocations in the league now

Il just stick to pasting the numbers from this site here on out

Worth mentioning

5 of forests 10 have been the Midlands, and they haven't played at Luton or Bournemouth yet either

Issue we'll have is that the teams above won't give us half what we gave them.

what was Birmingham’s average before they brought 4K here, we’d have been above them I guess?
