But you use them as an example of real fans? Finally turning up on a day when their favourites to win the league after spending a billion quid? Delusional.

TEFTONG 59,868 Posted April 22, 2021 Share Posted April 22, 2021 This is another wee bit from an article 2 years ago. But hey social media haters just gotta hate. Jibes aimed at City’s supposed poor attendances are both tiresome and incredibly easy to debunk. I could get down into the nitty-gritty and point out that City’s average home attendance in 1998/99 was 28,273. They were in the third tier at the time. I could also namecheck a report that came out two year’s back that evidenced that City have more long-standing match-going fans than any other Premier League club. That is not to look down on occasional attendees but it’s a proud boast nonetheless. I could highlight too that Liverpool’s record attendance would only be City’s 29th highest but why waste your time further when I can simply state that the club’s average home gate this season is 98.2% of its capacity. To use Liverpool again as a comparison theirs is 97.8%. Attendance figures this season Stadium Capacity - Anfield - 54,074 Etihad - 55,097 Average Attendance - Anfield - 52,889 Etihad - 54,120 Stadium Fill Percentage Anfield - 97.8% Etihad - 98.2%.

Unlike them we wouldn't shit the bed and blow a 12 point lead like they did back in the day..... There'd be no guarantees of success but to have a chance of a financial level playing field with even the mid table clubs we would do OK and I dare say surprise many English fans, pundits etc...

stuart1994 4,263 Posted April 22, 2021 Share Posted April 22, 2021 Not read through the thread or that but it’s a massive no for me, in all honesty I hate what English football has became. It’s a tourist league, clubs more interested in the day trip fans than anything. Not saying our club is perfect but far better than down there. Would hate to see Rangers become another tourist club which no doubt it would being in the same league as them. Can say all you want about the quality up here but at least it’s real, it lacks money but still has the passion. plumbGER, TamCoopz and bluebell82 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thinks it’s gone beyond that recently mate, even a billion over a few years doesn’t guarantee success, that’s astonishing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
