Some good stats there - not surprised most away average was peterboro due to it being terracing.

Also, Sheff Wed is relatively cheap and always get a big allocation.

 

Is there anywhere that shows what clubs took to each away game ?

There's a table that somebody posted on here a while back, other than that I'm no help. :D

In 1976/77 only one club would have been above us in the home attendances table. Bonus points for anyone who knows the answer.

Chelsea?

 

It was indeed Chelsea who were champions of the old Second Division that season. We finished 4th with bigger attendances than any of the other promoted clubs, including Forest.

 

We were one of the best supported teams in the country that season, with higher average attendances than half the teams in the old First Division.

Was a pure guess after Googling the Second Division that year (turns out it was Wolves who won the league, Chelsea were promoted in second).

You're right! Wolves did win the title but Chelsea had the biggest average attendances.

 

We had three attendances of over 30,000 that season in the old Second Division, not to mention an attendance of over 50,000 for the League Cup semi-final second leg. Those were the days!

Were did it all go wrong?

 

.... I suppose the answer is that we lost a generation of fans in the 1980s.

Full away averages for last season. Not too shabby. (Edit - This is taken from another forum, just noticed it doesn't replicate the Football League figures. But this one shows our average to be higher so... :D )

Only issue with the above table is it doesn't take into account the 4,000 or so we took to Blackburn.

I think its done by people who post on that site, dunno how accurate that would make it. Im presuming the 4114 that it gives on the highest away attendance must be Blackburn.
