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.
This is why we need Eric, he would probably tell us that all attendances were low during that period and back it up with stats.

How long do these clubs get to hold onto the title though? Is there a cut off point or do they just continue to be big clubs forever?
