Since relegation from the Premier League in 2019 we've played 64 games at the Cardiff City Stadium - 34 with a crowd, 30 without. This is how we've got on (all stats are for all competitions).

Obviously there's a lot more going on than just whether or not there's a crowd. This season has been a pretty dismal one and will skew figures for when we've had a crowd or not. However, it's noticeable that we've had better results on the road this season than at home, where our home form is likely to be the key to our survival.

Until the 2020 lockdown we'd lost 3 out of 21 home games. Since then we've lost 20 out of 43, almost half. Prior to the lockdown we'd won 8 out of 21 home games. Since then we've won 14 out of 43, less than a third.

When we returned from lockdown we won 3 out of the 6 remaining home games, only losing to Blackburn and the playoff semi to Fulham. In 2020/21 we won 3 of our first 13 home games but under McCarthy won 3 of his first 4 home games. Since we thrashed Derby 4-0 on March 2nd we've faced 19 home games and won 4. Our worst run in our history is 3 wins in 20 home games, so we're close to our worst home form of all time, crowds or no crowds.
