In terms of capacity yes. Any attendance table with Blackpool, Scunthorpe and Colchester above us doesn't really mean a great deal

Can anyone tell me how to rename links please? You have the basics. When it says " www.blahblahblah.com" in the message composition window, change it to " call it whatever you want" - (without the spaces between url and = sign, and at the end or the /url] bit so for example MC Hawking - lyrical geniusIf you were to press the quote button, you can see exactly what I wrote for the working link. |

First I took it as we are 21st in English football which is correct at current time, but next year we must make it higher in the table if we will reach promotion with a MUST WIN OVER LEICESTER. I know a draw will do, win is all that matter. Falcon (kristo, granddad)  ;D |

Obviously our attendances are severly affected by the thousands & thousands within our catchment area who flock to Vale Park every fortnight.  |

Until recently, we had the highest average attendances of any team in English football to never have played in the Premier League- we're still second, with Hull just overtaking us.

Lies, damned lies and statistics... next we'll get onto the graph of clubs that haven't been in the top league for more than 20 years, have moved from a ground everyone loved to one not everyone even likes yet, have formerly controversial managers whose names do and don't being with P... in the meantime 13th and rising (the most important point surely) sounds about right to me.

Actually, those figures show our support to be what it is...piss poor considering we've been top six all season.
Said it before and I'll say it again, Stoke is too small for two professional clubs.

Bit strange as well seeing as blackpool's capacity is 9491 yet their highest attendance is 9633 and colchecter did well on saturday selling 100 tickets that weren't even in the ground!
But both of those aren't a patch on Preston who quite magnificently sold nearly 3000 tickets over their capacity!

This "small city' argument is an interesting one. It's true that we are the smallest city to have two professional clubs, but pro rata, we lag behind other '2-club cities', which shows there are a number of other factors involved. Apathy? Economy? Too many 'big clubs' on our doorstep? If you take Sheffield, the two clubs get a combined average of 46500 from a population of 513000; from the North Staffs conurbation (S-o-T & N-u-L), a population of 362000, only 21000 people on average turn out to support the two local clubs. So, to be a complete statto  just over 9% of Sheffield's population come out to support their clubs; in North Staffs, that works out at just under 6% |

Can anyone tell me why these nerds keep coming up with bollocks like this? Lets put together a table featuring all the clubs who have fans wearing the clubs colours, and then I know, we will create a table and call it 'Englands most colourful' or 'Most Loyal' etc.
Really what is the point? Look a Sheff Weds, you could argue they are one of the best supported clubs in the league but because they have a large stadium they are next to bottom.
What a farce.
