Onto the Home averages well Aston Villa were 1st with a cracking 32,101, Leeds finished 2nd on 31,525 and Wolves in 3rd on 28,302. 13 of the 24 clubs averaged above 20k including away fans and only one club ended under five figures.

" Net home fans in the Championship "

Aston Villa top the net home averages but only just ahead of Leeds by 165, those two sit ahead of Wolves, 7 other clubs have a home average above 20k, Bristol City, Birmingham and Cardiff City drop out of 20k club once you remove the away numbers.

Burton obviously hold bottom spot with a home average of just over 3k which shows their efforts have been fantastic in their two years at this level, Brentford finish second bottom with the only other sub 10k home fan average, Barnsley make up the bottom three.

Bradford City’s pricing has proven to be a success once again as the Bantams have the best home support in the 3rd tier with jut under 20k, Portsmouth again in 2nd with Blackburn in 3rd, two other clubs had five figure averages, Charlton and Plymouth.

Lancashire quartet Fleetwood, Bury, Rochdale and Blackpool were the lowest supported clubs in League One.

Brilliant support from Leeds, as usual.

Fair play to the Sunderland fans. They were down the bottom all season but still averaged over 27,000.

Coventry’s first top six finish in over 40 years helped the club rise to the top of the home averages in the division with 9,255, Lincoln take 2nd spot on their return to league football with Luton 3rd.

Morecambe were the lowest supported club in the EFL with an average 1,500, Accrington Stanley defied their gates of 1,979 to secure the division title with Barnet 3rd on 2,113.

They probably have quite a number of season ticket holders, many of whom didn’t bother to turn up but were counted in the numbers. We had the same issue ourselves a few years ago.

I agree regarding Sunderland, but to be fair to Leeds home & away their sections of Support looked packed every game.

I bet though Sunderland are still massive in Support in League 1 next season.

As I've always said the best supported teams both home and away are the ones who recently or historically have spent the most seasons in the top division.your table illustrates that perfectly.

I love the colours of the team names - reminds me of the old league ladders that were given away with Shoot!
