Seems as the Ricoh Arena actually holds 32,000, Coventry should be around 14/15th place.

Does Man Citys include the amount of blue seats?
Does United's count the amount of fans from Singapore?


Anyway, I'd hardly say that measures loyalty. A club finishing 4th is hardly going to test a group of fan's loyalty is it?

Surprised you didn't get any lulz for that, mate.:kiss:

Also matchday income with the rise in ticket prices and VAT will reach £3.5M a game next season which will be more than any other club.
Good stuff, ripping off fans and pushing the working class away from the club more and more. That's something to be proud of.:proud:

Not really. They had 48,000 in the EPL. Where did those 16,000 go? Also thats a rise on last season when they had less. When the feel-good factor arrives they all of a sudden turn up again. Thats not loyalty.

It was only the later stages of the season when they suddenly started getting high 30,000 and 40,000 attendances, that their average jumped up as well, their home support is as fickle as the best (or should that be worst)

Can't knock their away support though.

According to the Sun: 24% of Man United ticket holders will not be renewing their season ticket for next season and 22% for Liverpool! The figure is also very high for Spurs at 19% and Chelsea at 15%. But also, 13% of Arsenal fans are not renewing.

Some of the prices are ridiculous, but our board is seriously taking the piss. The most expensive season ticket prices in the EPL:

1) Arsenal £885 to £2,500
2) Tottenham £579 to £1,550
3) Chelsea £530 to £1,150
4) Man Utd £475 to £836

err how exactly do the sc*m come up with these numbers, i doubt anyone from especially LFC would disclose figures and if so i doubt it with the s*n. arsenal's prices are amazingly high, with regards to Liverpool and utd both clubs have massive waiting lists and even people who may not renew now, will do so a bit later, so the figures sem premature to me.
