Likewise for myself. I need to read comments before running my yammer. Nevertheless, indeed a good question.

Okay…. now for a support check as opposed to capacity. Is there a list of top ten team supporters for this current EPL season? Where support = percentage of fans that show up relative to capacity. Unless every EPL game is sold out, this should be easy to quantify.

Because grounds are different sizes, this ranking is pretty meaningless. What would be more interesting is this:

Attendance as a % of ground size. That is, what teams are filling up the seats they have.

Avg. Attendance based on away teams. That is, what teams draw a higher % of attendance when they play on the road.
