Swansea City do fill more of their stadium than us

Surely it's common sense that it is easier to fill a smaller stadium. If we had a stadium as small as Swansea, that would be a 100% figure.

Swansea don't have a stadium, it's the Ospreys council owned stadium that they have permission to use

Exactly. Another meaningless stat

Just proves Swansea have the lowest attendance in the League and many Championship teams have bigger attendances....

What it actually shows is what a fantastically well run club we are to make millions in profits, to be going into our 4th season in the pl, to have entered into the knockout stages of the europa league, to have won a trophy, had a top half finish, won at valencia, chelsea, utd, anfield, arsenal, beaten the reigning champions of europe and pl champions.
Had players represent spain and holland and all that without a dodgy foreign owner and the smallest club in the league. Owned by fans and a supporters group. And you lot try and take the piss , laughable really.

It doesn't show that at all, it shows that you have a small stadium and fill it regularly. And that's a fact.

Also beat Valencia away? Beat the reigning champions? Talk about clutching at straws.

What a pointless topic

so we aren't a well run club then?

People are aware that green arrow is a jack right

I am a Cardiff fan and I live about 5 minutes away from you, if that. I used to live in Llanrumney.

James didn't you say you went Rumney High? You might've known one of my brothers as they're both around the same age as you

Decently run club, yes. But the graphic doesn't show that in the slightest

So to achieve all I said with the smallest gates in the league demonstrates a very well, superbly, fantastically run club. Thanks for agreeing.

What a pointless topic

I have to agree sadly.

If you gave us both 30,000 seats we'd have an average of about 29,000 whereas they'd be around 23/24,000 IMO. They've had to give away tickets this season so can't be doing that well at bringing fans through the gates.

They'd probably only sell out 1 game as well and that would be against us

Wtc u talking about?
We had to give away tickets.
Explain when in the prem did we do this.
As for your 29k to our 23-24k stop talking rubish
You aint filled 27 kevety game there for how on earth could u av 29?
Truth is we are about 2 k behind u as things stand this season.
And a intresting stat to find would be your season away av and our first season as that would be a better reflection.

Wtc u talking about?

attendances... Even you can work that one out, Joey?

We had to give away tickets.
Explain when in the prem did we do this.

where did he say prem? It's true, you had to give away tickets to your big Europa league games... Even then you didn't sell out! For all the banging on about Europe, it seems none of your fans actually wanted to go.

As for your 29k to our 23-24k stop talking rubish
You aint filled 27 kevety game there for how on earth could u av 29?

yes we have. You haven't filled 20k though.

Truth is we are about 2 k behind u as things stand this season.

judging by this, maths isn't your strong point.

And a intresting stat to find would be your season away av and our first season as that would be a better reflection.

I think home support is just fine. or even look at the championship... When at the same time, you were getting 11/12k and us over 20k.

I never miss a home game and have never seen our stadium full.

What a Boring Post, if you don't care about attendences as you state only interested whats happens on the field WHY post it in the beginning ?

Were did he say euro games barry?
In the champ we were on our way up and only had 2 seasons in there, tell me barry how many years had u beem there? Plis a numbrr of finals all buildi g your support.
And still you hardly sold out.
And even u cant argue we dont get 20 k plus each week.and if not its because away fans fail to sell there allocation.
This realy is a sore point for u isint it.
U realy get your teeth into the old attendance threds.
Put it this way barry should we both havr 30 k grounds I will accept u will fill it more then us, but on average I would say we would be 2 k behind u.
We have been building our fan base the last 4 years wile the last 2 years yours have been falling apart due to rebrand.
It will be interesting to see ehat u get back in the champ

Were did he say euro games barry?

where did he say prem Games Joey?

In the champ we were on our way up and only had 2 seasons in there, tell me barry how many years had u beem there? Plis a numbrr of finals all buildi g your support.

roughly translated as Cardiff had much bigger crowds when neither were filling their stadium.

And still you hardly sold out.

no, that's because our stadium was big. You never sold out and at times only had 11k.

And even u cant argue we dont get 20 k plus each week.and if not its because away fans fail to sell there allocation.

yet you were going on about it not being a sell out at Cardiff if the away end wasn't full... More hypocrisy from the number one in the sport.

This realy is a sore point for u isint it.

oh yes. It's really a sore point that Cardiff got bigger attendances in the league below you. I'm so bitter of a club that doesn't own it's own tiny stadium that they cannot even fill...

U realy get your teeth into the old attendance threds.

I do, because it really winds you up.

Put it this way barry should we both havr 30 k grounds I will accept u will fill it more then us, but on average I would say we would be 2 k behind u.

thats fine, but last time both clubs were at the same level & both had stadia that weren't selling out, Cardiff were getting over 8k more a season on average. That's hard facts.

We have been building our fan base the last 4 years wile the last 2 years yours have been falling apart due to rebrand.
It will be interesting to see ehat u get back in the champ

you mean you've got a load of glory fans? Glad you can admit.

stick to the topic jack!

Barry u can twist and shout all u like.
The oppening post was a based on prem games.
You know this yet argue the point to death.
Yes we only had 13 - 15 k in the champ but only a few years previous were playing in the bottom league.
In the mean time u were pushing for the prem.
Off course u would average better crowds then us.
Look at it this way your crowds in your first season or 2nnd in the champ were no diff then ours in our first and 2nd.
Its only the fact u stayed there and had finals that your crowds broke the 20 k mark
Now I know u will twist it to suit your self but facts are facts.
And we matched if not bettered your in the first seasons in the champ.

All things being equal - Cardiff have a larger fan base.

Not by much, but larger all the same.

You didn't have 13-15 in the championship at all..

We were also in the bottom league not too long ago.

You also had a new shiny stadium in your first championship season.

Facts are facts & I've already posted them. What you've posted is opinions.

Off course we get the smallest as we have the smallest ground.
But bare in mind we built our stadium 5 years before u even layed a foundation and were in league 2.
Why would we be stupid enough to build a bigger ground and risk not filling it?.
Know if we employed someone who can see in to the future then ok but unfortunately we didnt.
We are now a well run club heading in the right direction, a good side and yout academy, a top class training and sports science facilities in the gower with swansea uni soon to be up and running and a fan base growing.
Add to that plenty of money in the bank then things are looking good.
Yes we need to expand and plans are there to do so but the priority is to stay in the prem.
And lets face it the money from fans coming through the turn stiles is nothing compared to staying in the prem.
Ask your self this? Do you think you will get anywhere near the amount of money as us with a bigger stadium.

nice avoidance of the topic.

Facts are, if Swansea & Cardiff had exactly the same crowds and swapped stadia, Cardiff would be 100% and Swansea would be well down the table...

Which renders this stat/post totally pointless.

Don't get me wrong Paul, Swansea have gone totally the right way about it.. I've never said otherwise, but that's got nothing to do with the topic.

First season in chap 12-15 k.
Second around the same.
Im sure someone will post a link to see as I have no idea.
And now its we had a new stadium moving the hoal post again barry as u found out your wrong.
Atleast u are consistent hey

Yeah stop moving the 'Hoal' posts Chuckles

As iv said barry if both clubs had 30 k stadiums u would fill it more then us im pretty sure off that.
But dont make out that u have a much bigger fan base as u dont and I think on s whole u would average 2 k more then us.

Opps my mistake its goal posts.

It seems your maths is about as good as your spelling.

No, I'm right. Swansea have had smaller attendances then Cardiff for ages... DESPITE you having a new ground (which always boosts numbers) learn to read properly.
