Historically big clubs

[SLUDGE FACTORY]

I always look at Wednesday as a big club, they still have legions of fans despite being pretty bad and could easily pull 40,000 in the PL. same as one city club Leeds. I guess if swfc don’t get back there in the next 20 years support will naturally fade as older loyal fans die off.
Always amazes me looking at 80’s attendances of the big clubs, sub 20k for Arsenal, spurs, Sunderland and Newcastle all the time. Everton struggled too early 80’s. Liverpool even 27/28k….crazy how much support has changed in 40 years.

The worrying thing is when you look at ours in the eighties

Less than 2500 to watch us on countless occasions

Man City getting 21 k was poor by their standards but enormous by ours

We weren’t always that bad….looking at crowds regularly posted on the fb group. 7/8000 most of the time. I guess crowds might have just tripled over the years….
