    Sunderland are getting 25000 plus in league one and Pompey's support has held up around the 18000 mark since their fall from grace , sides like this and the likes of Sheffield Wednesday , derby , etc have a solid core support

    We don't

    Under Slade , Jones and Trollope fans would desert us in droves when results went against us

    Its always been the case and one of the reasons why getting rid of Warnock could jettison this club into freefall and possible relegation

    If people want a new manager in my view we should ensure we don't go down , by sticking with Warnock ......and make a change at the end of the season

    No it hasn't.

    2009/10 Premier League 18249
    2010/11 Championship 15571
    2011/12 Championship 15076
    2012/13 League 1 12232
    2013/14 League 2 15461
    2014/15 League 2 15242
    2015/16 League 2 16391
    2016/17 League 2 16823
    2017/18 League 1 17917
    2018/19 League 1 18223
    2019/20 League 1 17893

    Theirs dropped a third in 3 seasons going from Premier League to League 1. What is interesting is that their Supporters' Trust eventually bought the club at the end of that 2012/13 season and the fans came back. They clearly had a number of stay aways prior to that, though.
