[/quote]and you do, do you? We would easily sell out a bigger stadium no-matter what league we''re in. Leeds, however, only seem to get crowds over 23000 in bigger games, we get sellouts week-in week-out, a crowd below 24000 is disappointing for us, thats a decent crowd for you (i will admit you have got 30000+ crowds, but considering our average attendance is better/just below yours and your ground is almost double our capacity, we have probably the better fans) Plus Leeds'' population is near 800,000 norwich''s is only just above 100,000. Anyway NCFC and LUFC have best supporters in the league, and better than many championship and PL teams (but our fans are better [:P] [;)] ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[/quote]Where as you would with your glory hunter fans. I would rather have30,000 core fans who turn up to every game whoever its against than18,000 odd and the rest who by the looks of thing turn up to watch theother team than Leeds!P.S Who owns your stadium? We own ourstadium and premirship standard training ground, so Im guessing a bigclub like yourselves do too, oh wait....... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bill 1,788 Posted March 10, 2010 " Even in the premiership"Soething you will never know. It''s a fair bet you won''t even know what attendances you might get in the Championship.But at least you can enjoy your big club image by traipsing around places like Exeter, Yeovil and Wycombe boring the arse of home fans about your glory days.

That seems quite a lot considering you are down here in your third season, is everyone fine with that or do you think uncle Ken is squeezing your plums for all he can get?
