If you look at the attendances I think you will realise that the club that struggles most to sell out is Chelsea. With Tottenham improving under Pocchettino they will sell out more often than Chelsea, who have never sold out much during their history

Doesn't that rather depend on how you define 'fill' though? The capacity at Withdean was not the same when we started playing there as when we finished, the first few seasons there, before the capacity was expanded, the stadium was effectively full. After expansion (by about 2,000 seats, 900 of which were in the new away end, and all of which were exposed to the elements) it was noticeable that novelty of the watching a match from Worthing was not particularly attractive to away fans. The average attendance was rarely much below 6,000 in all that time, and over 7,000 in the final season - which as a percentage of capacity is not bad at all..
Yes, there were some games where only a couple of thousand would turn up... but the same could be said for any game played in the Paint Pot anywhere in the country.

When is this anus of a stadium going to be erected? They'll never have any class, whatever money they throw at themselves.

you can hardly talk about percentage of capacity as a defence , if it was a 3000 capacity and 2700 turned up would you be quoting those figures ? The point is , that yolu have acquired lots of new fans since bloom turned up and the stadium got built , you can talk about returning fans all you like , but if you do then the same could be applied to chelsea.

When was the last time Chelsea sold out? They will always sell out the away section but not the home. I must admit a friend of the family who is in Met Police and covers all the grounds says it is the worst stadium in London I assume he means Premier.
West Ham will struggle the most once people have been to their new ground and seen how shite the view is.

Of course, it wasn't always like that. I used to support... er? Manchester United. But then, you had to support them where I came from in... erm... Hampstead.

I dont think so as I know a chap who hasnt missed a game and gets his on line at the last minute?
Your friend thinks that Stamford Bridge is a 'worse' stadium than Selhurst Park or Vicarage Road? He's not a detective, I take it?

How very pertinent to this thread.
