Considering the crap that you've had to endure for most of this season, and last, the crowds you've been getting have been remarkable. However, a straight comparison isn't really viable, as prices, incentives, recent history and other such issues need to be taken into account.
When you've been in Administration, had a decent team sold from under you, failed in two play-off seasons, and then had your lowest finish in recent history, with the Premiership and European football seeming like a distant memory (even though its only a few seasons ago), its hardly surprising that a team which hasn't had to endure such a traumatic period has the edge over you in crowds. The thing is, we are used to better - but the signs are promising that the future looks much brighter.
I'd rather have our immediate future than yours right now, irrespective of whether you can attract a couple more thousand through the turnstiles.
