The bottom three average attendances in the EPL are Swansea, Wigan and QPR.

So you are saying they need a bigger stadium? Still don't get the Wigan thing though as they clearly don't need a bigger one? :?

It would be impossible for us to be any higher than third bottom, as our ground holds roughly 20,700 and fourth lowest is 24,000. You can't use those facts against us, when that's all our ground holds and we've sold out all 32 Premier League home games and are looking to expand our ground showing that our home attendances aren't reflective of our fan base.

But one has a clear capacity issue.

Let me know if your just on a wind up so I can leave you to it. Otherwise I'm not too sure where your coming from.

Swansea Town are now known as 'Welsh Wigan' due to their very poor away following, their Rugby stadium and their failure to sell out many many games even though they are in a league far too big for them. It's generally as they feel they are big club and now 'bigging up' the reserve team trophy they are in the final of tomorrow as a 'major trophy' :laughing6: :laughing6: :laughing6: :laughing6:

Welsh Wigan...................very appropriate for Swansea Town!! :wave: :laughing6:

We've got a larger away stadium than you, your stadium was used for rugby up until very recently and we've not failed to sell out any home league games this season.

I take it you didn't go to Wembley last season then for the 'reserve team trophy' then :roll:

Yes but you're in the Prem. Once we get promoted in just under 2 months, we will be light years ahead of you in terms of support.

At the same level, you are always in our shadow.

Cardiff is a big city compared to a lot of cities in the UK. Also, Wales is a country. So we are your capital. :D

If QPR had a 20,000 seater stadium then they would. If Wigan only just got promoted to the Prem then they would. If Swansea were in the Prem for as long as Wigan and were in a relegation battle every year then Swansea would get the same crowds as Wigan.

Hence Welsh Wigan.

But you could say if Swansea had 30,000 stadium they would sell out.

If Swansea were in the champions league they would get similar crowds to Real Madrid

If Swansea were in the Prem for as long as man united and had a big enough stadium they would be getting 60k sell outs.

- it's just made up conjecture based on nothing. For that reason, I'm out.

So are yours as you cannot quantify them. The fact is Swansea sell out easily for every game, this is an indication of a greater demand for tickets.

To say their attendances are similar to a club who never sells out their stadium just because they are a similar sized stadium is like saying Cardiff are the Welsh Brighton (even that is stretching it as Brighton have a higher ave attendance).

Wigan are known for having shit support.

So are Swansea.

Simple. Don't cry about it.
