HeartOfMidlothian Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 I had read a while back that attendances are dictated based on location. The context is starting a new challenge game with say, Salford. As they are near a major city, Manchester, the scope for increased attendances is far greater than a club outside a major region or city. Does anyone have any evidence to back that up? Interested in starting a new challenge but would like larger attendances if I can make it through the leagues. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anthony Kenna Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 I don't have any evidence for/against this but I have always thought that having lots of bigger clubs around you would be detrimental to your attendances, especially in cities that have Premier League clubs. I imagine it is more about the reputation of the club and also the area. The higher reputation of both of these would mean more people and this should mean more fans. I often wonder about how the ticket prices are generated. If this is based on reputation too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Increase/decrease is related to reputation, city size, league reputation, your results. Salford is around 100k to there's a chance to increase your 'default' attendance. Remember that european cup results will increase it better than promotion to league one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobby_McDonald Posted April 6, 2020 Share Posted April 6, 2020 The problem you have with Salford is while it is a small city itself and on the doorstep of Manchester, then you are competiting with the two Manchester clubs for fans. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
