mitre_mouldmaster 21,509 Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 The article is all over the shop. The table clearly states that these are figures from 2015/2016 season. But the article is claiming its all down to Rangers return to the top and Brendan Rogers being at celtic which were both happened for the 2016/2017 season.

I expect Gustav to still dispute this though. Â Quote celtic are one of just 11 clubs to have reported an aggregate league attendance of over one million in 2016/17 and boast the eighth-highest average attendance in Europe with 54,726. Rangers have jumped into the top 20 this year, coming in at number 13 following their return to the Scottish Premiership. Â Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only big league I can think of that plays less games than us is the Dutch league tbh. Your point does not stand. Hamburg played 34 league games in the 2016/17 season. We played 38 league games in the 2016/17 season. Mix that in with our mental split thing when you can get an unequal number of home and away games.

HuistraHairDo 12,496 Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 like to see any team in the world take as many fans to one game as we did in Manchester. So fuck the list WATP. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Heart and Hand 8,949 Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 I could care less about attendance figures. It's meaningless imo. We have a world class stadium with some of the most loyal fans in the world. We've sold out our stadium against the elites of Europe and we've sold it out in the lowest league in the country against part time sides. If they brag about attendance then it's cause they've nothing better to brag about. As long as our trophy cabinet is bigger than theirs then let them have a bigger stadium it means fuck all Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

England, Italy, France and Spain all play 38 games. Even with the split taken into consideration, it's great when you remember how shite the league was (for 15/16) or how shite we were (for 16/17).

Thermopylae 15,287 Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 I wonder what the big leagues think of a country of only 5 million people having 2 teams in the top 20?
