Rangers Amongst Top 25 Attended Clubs in Europe This Season

Rangers are amongst the top 25 attended clubs in European football this season, according to figures revealed today.

According to a study carried out by radio station TalkSport, the average attendances at both Parkhead and Ibrox for the 2015/16 campaign puts Celtic in 23rd place, with Rangers just ahead in 22nd.

Celtic’s average home attendance is recorded  as 44,321, whilst Rangers’ is tallied as 44,720.

However, it is unclear how many of those numbers relate to season ticket holders, many of whom are often counted as a spectator at matches they haven’t attended.

The Hoops’ attendance figures in particular have come under close scrutiny in recent months – coinciding with a sticky patch for the team.

But the fact both sides make the list is a badge of honour, and is a reminder of just how big the two teams remain in European terms.

They are just in front of Liverpool and Athletic Bilbao in the list of 25, and just behind the likes of PSG, Atletico Madrid and Inter Milan.

Borussia Dortmund top the list with an average attendance of 81,222 at their impressive Westfalenstadion. If you want to see the list in full, it can be viewed here.

Surely we should be getting access to any European Superleague with such a record in the second tier.

Aye. Ours tends to look around the low to mid 40s. Sellic's doesn't.

[Ace 3,556]

The figures they seem to be quotes are from club reported attendances  (or so it seems) rather that actual through the gate figures, available from Police.

Should they use the latter I think ALL figures would drop, ours included but CFC'S would drop ALOT further.

40k go to Savile Row to watch Ronny Dumplin's team....

I see the Scum have lied their way to 23rd, this needs exposed, then again filth doing what the filth do best, lie.

[JFK-1 516]

It can't do any harm to be among the top most supported clubs but in the larger picture it doesn't help a great deal since TV deals and not attendance figures are the deciding factor in modern football.  Sky is never going to come calling with a multi billion deal for Scottish football.  

[Poetry_In_Blue 1,043]

If you make those figures into a percentage of what the ground can actually hold then Celtic's would be even lower.

[TheCutch 4,340]

Not looked at the full list, but I would assume Glasgow is the smallest city to have 2 teams on the list?

 

Even if one of them is miles out.

[TheCutch 4,340]

I bet the filth must feel really ashamed that a club they claim was only founded in 2012 has a better support than them.

And in the second tier as well.

[B1872 20,757]

The paedophile harbourers are the masters of propaganda. The truth is they'd be lucky to be in the top 150. They must be counting the amount of seats their banners cover!

[scottyc06 6,915]

Can only assume these figures will rise again next season as well with an increase in season tickets! 

[bacon_tie_backs 1]

The one thing you can count on from them is more lies and cover ups they have previous. If they reported the same number on that list that would have been a better reflection of the attendance.

[Thewhitesettler 2,711]

If celt*c get near 45 000 into their ground every week, the piggery must have a capacity of 100 000, because it's barely half full most weeks.

[thehost 11,061]

We should be bringing out our original blue hooped jersey to stop all these cunts referring to those bawbags as the hoops

I'm sure I read somewhere that the money through the gates is really an irrelevance in relation to the premiership sky money. It all helps right enough.

I don't know if it's still the case but the last figures I saw, admittedly a few years ago, Scotland had the highest attendances in Europe as a proportion of it's population.

yup, and it's so pathetic it makes me chuckle.

i was on youtube the other day, and the amount of videos they've put up in the guise of unbiased videos just to make them look like angels and us look like dicks is incredible.

they have things like old firm flashpoints, and it doesn't contain one mistimed tackle, one booking, one anything from the scum - just all us. it's rediculous. Do they forget the time their fans hit the ref with a coin and he ended up a bloody mess? perhaps all the pitch invasions during that game as well?

their cheating? let's not forget sugarpuff teeth lennon trying to get a reaction from one of our players by winding him up 3 or 4 times in one game - never seen such unprofessionalism from a manager before.

i dont even need to go into their players tackling and cheating as well, serial divers and violent knuckle draggers.

but i guess this doesn't fit in with their always cheated never defeated club motto

Didn't you know they added that expansion they now have the largest stadium in the world. or so they fucking think with those figures 

[bluegecko 306]

I wonder if Adrian Durham will pick up on their figures as it's talksport who compiled the figures and he's commented on their attendance before. 

He also like to noise them up as often as possible 

[SeparateEntityMyArse 53,752]

Including the freebies they've been giving out all season ????. 

Loyal froo n froo ??

[scottyscott1963 18,375]

A nice wee spring in my step when I bump into any of gangrene brigade when I ask them when was the last time they were at a match. 23rd ma fuckin erchie. Love beating the savilles and gary glitters at anything.
