Championship 2018-2019

[Colhint]

Just to put that into perspective. We are the top team attendance wise in the championship and 9th top average in football in England.

More than chelsea today.

Like I said great when things are going well. Not so great when they’re not going well.

You mean like that last 8 years where we've been by and large shit and bordering embarrassing at time setting numerous negative club records yet we've only had 9 higher average attendances in the past 40 years.

We've averaged more than we did last season despite finishing lower. Our support is fantastic and attempting to say otherwise is just moaning for the sake of it.

Thats Chelsea qualifying for the champs league and us in the second division.

Nice to see the manager of Birmingham City being as classy as its fans.

The only surprise is that he didn’t do the interview wearing one of the Paul Mitchell masks that the dickheads were wearing yesterday.

Yes, we're 10th I believe.  Everton have averaged nearly 39K, and Chelsea just over 40K.  There's then a big jump to Newcastle with 51K.  We're miles ahead of the likes of Leicester, Cardiff and Wolves though, the next tier down in the Premier League.

Leeds would be 11th, and Sunderland 12th.

XX what's your problem? You sound like a nose on a mission...

Our support has been nothing short of phenomenal through the utter shit we've had to endure. As for when we've been doing better than hoped in the SECOND division - astounding. Lighten up mate, enjoy it.

That's the thing with our fanbase which caught Lerner out.

We get "good" attendances regardless of what's going on on the pitch. We're arguably the most loyal fans out there. But even when we're doing well it doesn't get that much better - during our run of 6th place finishes in the Prem we only sold out half a dozen times a season.

It would be interesting to see what would happen if we had a 50k capacity stadium (ie build it and they will come) but it would be a gamble based on our track record.

We'll never know unless we do it. We should, the North Stand is dangerous.

There was one year under O'Neill (07/08) when we sold out most weeks, and averaged over 40K.
