Forest's average attendance

[ThatJa]

Forest spent an awful lot of money. The hoofy nonsense they played at bdtbl was a mile short of what was expected. Joao Carvalho cost £13,200,000 last summer. That’ll sell tickets.

More evidence of the value of Wilder...

He hardly played. Another case of bad investments..

 

[cahill]

That can't be right... I have it on very good authority that they're massive?

I've heard that as well, he must be fibbing

 

[Feo]

Oh fuck off. Most predictable response ever. *yawn*

Surprised there’s not been a “scab” comment.

Scabs.

and in regards to comparing Nottinghamshire to Sheffield, bare in mind when looking at population a lot of the big suburbs of Nottingham which aren't far from city centre are actually classed outside of city boundaries - such as West Bridgford where the City Ground is.

It does reduce Nottingham's with how the boundaries work, but Sheffield's is still greater - 450,000 for Nottingham City and Rushcliffe (where West Bridgford is) - City of Sheffield 558,000.

Also remember that a lot of places very much within the sprawl of the city of Sheffield are part of either Rotherham, or NE Derbyshire councils and not SCC, so the 'urban' figure is much higher and probably touching 700,000. Then of course there's Rotherham and Chesterfield on the doorstep.

Not taking anything away from Forest here btw. They've always had good attendances and fair play to them for capitalising on the feel good factor and lack of any other competitors locally.

His latest relegation was the most predictable event ever. He’s out of his depth, him.

Think Warnocks mentality and football style only works up to a certain standard.
He consistently achieves fantastic results at Championship level and below
using organisation and effort/ motivation playing direct percentage football.

But it’s not the mid 80’s anymore, percentage football no longer works at elite level in England.

Yeah i live in Notts, it's essentially a one team city with the unfortunate plight of County.

Also consider this - population-wise Nottinghamshire is bigger than Sheffield (granted there is Mansfield included in that).

Sheffield has two teams getting in 90-120k in every month... whereas the Notts teams get 70k

Nottingham isn't as big as Sheffield, Nottinghamshire isn't as big as South Yorkshire
You can't measure entire counties against cities

However, you're right where Forest are concerned, they're the only club in the whole county considering Mansfield and Notts County's plight.
It's a bit like Norwich, it's a small city, but the entire county of Norfolk supports them

Staying on for next season though..
