I think the London Clubs are of a similar distance but obviously easier to get to due to the train service.
Derby normally average out over 2,000 a game on these tables of average away crowds come the end of the season. A trip to Cardiff is obliviously seen as a long journey to them and not a top priority for a lot of their fans.
I think they took 1500 to Sunderland Friday Night, opening day plus took thousands to Bolton 70 Miles and Sheffield Utd 47 Miles, they got Leeds coming up 70 miles, no wonder they can't be arsed to come here to be fair.

We took about 1100 last time we played there on a Sat
and I'm sure it was 1500-2000 on a few occasions before that.

That's a fair point. I just looked at some old programmes and at least half of their recent trips here have been midweek.
When it comes to averages though we have no chance when Midlands and South Yorks clubs all have loads of short trips, often to clubs with big away ends and with no fuss about RVs etc...
