    You planning on doing Swansea, or have you already?

    You can by me a birthday beer.

    Biggest gutter for me is QPR is a midweek game ffs. Cracking away trip that for us (me and sons).

    The only London option is Millwall.

    Watford not far either and maybe easier getting away if driving.

    It's more a train trip really, me and a mate take our two sons, can have beers and food in town and only a quick hop over from Paddington so QPR is ideal.

    Millwall will be tubes across town which would be a pain. It's a least a Saturday though,for now. I wouldn't expect it to end up on Sky either.

    If I keep my season ticket then I almost certainly will bar anything unforseen as Swansea one of the few big places in Wales I've not visited.

    January isn't it?

    Yeah, 20th.

    Might yet go down your place for an away day. I've been to the Dell, but never St Mary's.

    St Marys dull as anything too. Just a red version of Leicesters ground (can't remember which was built first).

    Cheap though. Wouldn't build a new ground for £32m these days!

    So is that list only since the creation of the Prem or are we really talking top tier here?

    Definitely PL as Toon would have had far fewer in the 80s.

    Weird list though. Seemed to pluck random clubs and exclude others.

    Prem. Newcastle were getting attendances as low as 11k before Keegan went there.

    I wonder why Chelsea is so low then, is that when the club wasn't allow to sell tickets?

    I'd imagine a few are when grounds were being redeveloped, can't see that Arsenal only had 18k once from a fully open Highbury in the 90s, same with Liverpools 25k.

    Possibly. I also remember a time in the 90's when most of their ground seemed to be under construction.

    In short it's a pointless chart because of so many variables.
