How do you know? If they had a good few years in league one, I doubt very much they would have 30-40k turning up. If they had as many years outside the top div as Cardiff have had, what would their crowds be? Nobody knows, but i suspect nothing like what they get today.

Leeds, West Ham and Forest still got big crowds when they got relegated though. Everton would still sell out in my opinion, especially when a club that is established like they are have a large number of season ticket holders.

And the reason we don't know is because they haven't been outside the top flight in 52 years.And in that time have won 4 league titles, 2 FA Cups a League Cup and Cup winners Cup.In that 52 years you lot weren't even in the top flight.

Yet we're still bigger than them.
We're a medium sized club that has just reached the top flight after many years. We are going to be small fry next season, compared to what we are used to.
Everton, however, have been in the top flight for decades & have won many things. They also have a huge potential to be even better - just like any other club has.

Everton have never been out of the top flight have they? ....and apart from the 80's when all clubs attendances fell due to hooliganism, Everton have had great support (check the average div 1 (premiership) attendances for the 80's.....shockingly low.
Everton have had huge crowds for decades and a fan base that reaches to all parts of the UK. We have grown beyond belief but are still a long way behind them.
We are currently of similar size to Stoke and Fulham, but are still miles behind them in terms of stature. We havent even played a Premier game yet ffs!!!
If we can stay up a few years, then we can start talking about the giant waking up!!!

Even more than people saying berbatov, signing kalou signing etc, Everton are always challenging for Europe and champions league!! Know wonder some jacks laugh at some of our deluded fans!!!!
