But we arnt a small town Club?

We are one of the top 15-20 clubs in England.

We SHOULD be in the PL/Top of the champs at least.

How many clubs would get 25K crowds in LG1

Brum can only get 19K in a local derby with Coventry in the champs.

What crowds would teams like Fulham, Bolton, Blackburn, wolves and WBA get in the champs.

I am guessing much less than us.

Wigan in the champs would probably average 10K or less.

With the adoption of the new fair play rules, revenue will be a really important factor going forward.

It will be so much harder for a LG to get a wealthy benifactor and buy their way to the PL.

Probably one of the reason the Foxes are buying NOW, knowing its their best shot at promotion.
