Bris Vegas Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 Doesn't make a lot of sense to me. The lower the score the better?I'm don't really give two hoots about fans, but I'd like to know how the calculated Brighton having better than Southampton and Hull, Palace, Charlton and Wigan having considerably better global fanbases than DCFC - in what universe?

Bris Vegas Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 My Peruvian tour leader in Brazil was a wigan fan. But that's only because he had some passengers from Wigan, and they have him a shirt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PistoldPete2 Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 Looks rubbish to me.... Crowds for Derby for example less than Birmingham? I can't ever remember that being true. Income 33rd? Well mane the clubs receiving parachute money have more income than us.... Norwich maybe fulham, etc but can't think of 13 clubs in the championship,with bigger income than us.

PistoldPete2 Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 For all of the last 35 years or more our success on the pitch has lagged behind our support, fan base etc, so I am very surprised to see our rating for crowds, fan base etc ranked below,our average rating in the league , etc. looks like ******** to me.

Ambitious Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 It's trying to quantify the unquantifiable. There is no way of actually measuring how big a club is because everyone states different reasons for being a big club. It's obvious in my mind - it should go purely on fanbase. The bigger the crowd in the ground, the bigger the club. I just don't see how you could argue with that. I don't get the argument over trophies. I understand the importance of winning trophies but does it really carry weight in terms of how big a club is?Forest are bigger in the pub quiz industry than they are in the football industry for their European Championship wins.

Dimmu Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 I'm not sure is this another cultural thing but I see no rational reason to do this kind of ranking.My mom cooks better than yours... Tinpot stuff IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alph Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 I'm sure when Chelsea win the Premier League that they'll be gutted by news that Man United are bigger. Probably won't bother to celebrate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ramblur Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 You only have to look at the criteria used for crowds to see this is nonsense.Take the Sheffield clubs for example.You might understand Wednesday's ranking on the basis of historical highest attendances,but United? (unless I'm missing something).Also,if you look at Charlton,I think that many moons ago they got something ridiculous like 70,000,but there's no way they could attract that many now.I'm also struggling to see how Norwich could outscore us on either current or historical attendances.I think highest historical attendances should be adjusted to reflect the maximum possible contemporary attendance.

ramblur Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 To my surprise,Sheffield United's record attendance was 68,000+ in 1936,but it shows what a nonsense the whole thing is.I've no doubt that Norwich also have a high record attendance,otherwise there's no way they could be above us.Norwich's record attendance is just under 44,000 for a cup game (Sheffield United's was also a cup game),the significance of this being that both could have featured high opposition supports.

Chris_D Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 Saw this on Twitter which shows (if correct) how much bs the crowd score is Top 20 Average Attendances from the teams in the football league over the past 10 seasons #sufc #swfc #twitterblades pic.twitter.com/m7kyaA2I5C — Bailey (@BBailey1889) March 28, 2015 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
