There are a lot of variables at play, for example Man City's previous gates were limited by stadium capacity (you could argue the same for Leicester to a certain extent and certainly Southampton)

Maine Road had a capacity of 35k, some 12k higher than their lowest average.
Filbert St had a capacity of 22k, some 7k higher than their lowest average.
Southampton you have a point, but they still had a low average of 17k in the championship at St Marys.
Nice research Ron and well worth looking at. I think the thought is though that as a very big city our crowds don't and didn't always reflect that.
Fernando's variables is point.
A few of us have been at Highfield Road with crowds hovering around 8,000 in the top division. How the management of the club kept going in the face of that I don't know.
Sure we've been pretty starved of any real progress.
Just don't think people realise how powerful they are as a 12th man. (Just as long as it is in Coventry).

The "analysis"'is deeply flawed and highly selective.

Yep lots of variables and football/PL in particular is much more popular now than 20 years ago, plus 1 or two were in league two (Swansea).
Much better to look at the last 10-12 years.

Surely real fans go and watch their team regardless of the division their in?

How exactly?
instead of answering a question with a question please bore us with the answer to the original question.For many reasons that will bore people if Igp through them.
However if you answer this one question honestly then it will be sufficient.
If Coventry were in the premier league next season what would the average attendance be?

One FA Cup win
A highest ever finish in the top division of 7th.
Most clubs suffer highs and lows.
We had a little high followed by an eternity of a flat line.
Two tiny blips of success. Followed by steady decline and alienation of fans by the owners.
Coventry's support is immense if you think about it.
Matched only by the untapped potential

Top division.
In our cup winning season our opening game at home against Arsenal - 11,182
1990 home against Sheffield - 9,970
The pathetic attendance list is endless.
We have no long term highs to compare with the lows? As for Crewe I m sure there are some who wished there would have been 8000 there basking in their own self importance
If we were a flat line there would surely be little deviation?
Maine Road had a capacity of 35k, some 12k higher than their lowest average.
Filbert St had a capacity of 22k, some 7k higher than their lowest average.
Southampton you have a point, but they still had a low average of 17k in the championship at St Marys.
Our best finish in the premier league was 11th
Our best finish in the top division was 7th
We had the FA Cup win
Other than that we got to the top division and did nothing.
Since then we declined and then we inherited owners who had no regards for the fans.
Like I say immense fan base
Anyway, we're up to second in this table after this season with a whopping 959% differential based on a 2k average at Sixfields!
Europe here we come.
