Newcastle's population compared to Sunderland's is something like 4/1 favouring Newcastle.

So it's pretty f***ing obvious their crowds at the lop sided shit tip is gonna be higher. Yet if you go to the surrounding university's they give out free tickets for every home game.

Horrific atmosphere as well considering it's full every home game :lol:

Only as we all knew Everton were going to roll over and you could "send the mags down" sparking your greatest celebration in years.

That's the only one sold out in the last few years other than against us. 41k is the norm even when spurs and manure come to town



We genuinely had more sell outs last season as a newly promoted team than you have had in the last 10 years.

'Football Through The Turnstiles' by football historian Brian Tabner provides a survey of all league clubs based on the attendances they have attracted from 1888 to 2002. It contains a table for each year listing the averages for every club that played in the league during those seasons in descending order. Then at the end is an all-time attendance table based on each clubs' average positions in the seasonal attendance tables. The top 20 were as follows:

1: Arsenal
2: Liverpool
3: Manchester Utd
4: Everton
5: Tottenham
6: Newcastle
7: Manchester City
8: Chelsea
9: Aston Villa
10: Sunderland
11: Leeds
12: Sheffield Wed
13: West Ham
14: Wolves
15: Birmingham
16: Leicester
17: West Brom
18: Sheffield Utd
19: Middlesbrough
20: Derby

Given our attendances in the 16 years since 2002, its more than possible that a table to 2018 may have seen us edge above Villa in to 9th place in the all-time table.

How successful a club is, of course, effects attendances over time so although this gives a decent indication of the size/fanbase etc of each club it cannot tell the whole story. Given that all of the clubs above us have been far, far more successful in the last 60 years (at least), 9th/10th is pretty bloody incredible.

Portsmouth, by the way, were 23rd in the all-time table.

16/19 home games over 52,000 in attendance. The few hundred spare seats in the other games will have been in the away end against stoke Swansea and Burnley.

Every time I check for tickets it says sold out unless I get one weeks in advance.

So aye your wrong. Sold out a lot more last season than you have in the last 10 years probably

Context is not something the arsehats that commentate on football are familiar with. People in football with more than one braincell like Wenger, Henry and Ferguson recognise what a terrific support we get. Much better than Newcastle in terms of catchment area.

You got good support in the premiership.
Between Edinburgh and Leeds then we are the 2 biggest clubs in that area. All the people in Northumberland or Durham could easily of supported Sunderland. There's not far better the two places
