The top twenty would look like this:
61,800 – Schalke
57,000 – Hamburg
49,000 – Hannover
44,400 – Sunderland
44,000 – Kaiserslautern
40,400 – Dusseldorf
40,100 – Hertha Berlin
36,400 – Leeds
33,000 – Karlsruhe
31,800 – Leicester
30,400 – Southampton
30,000 – Nuremburg
29,600 – Ipswich
29,500 – St Pauli
29,400 – Middlesbrough
29,000 – Hansa Rostock
28,500 – Sheffield Wednesday
28.300 – Magdeburg
26,200 – Norwich
25,700 – Coventry
Eleven German clubs and nine English clubs would make the top twenty, with German sides filling seven of the top ten places.
