    Didnt answer my question. No mention of Cardiff, no mention of Swansea. Just a simple question; League two football with 70k attendance each week OR premiership football with 5k attendance each week. Answer.

    But with attendances of 5k in the premier league you'll be heading into administration and straight out of the league system.

    Where would swansea get 5000 fans from then if not playing the top six in the Prem?

    And in answer to your question pegseller i would support my team even if they had low crowds like the small Prem sides as you well know thro experience ,Man Yoooooooo or my local side ...............Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmm ..;O)

    Not necessarily, Went to Manu away last season, quietest home fans iv ever experienced. Even your bunch were louder back in the days of 5-7k at the games. Your best atmospheres were at Ninian. And no that's not a dig, im sure the sensible ones here will agree with me on that.

    Taff, gate receipts are not the main source of income for premiership teams, tv rights are. So I don't think a team would go into admin for having only 5k attendances, although it wouldn't exactly help. Of course this is all hypothetical, I just wanted a more clear insight into Johns way of thinking is all.

    As for you John, you still haven't answered my question. You seem to make such a big fuss over the crowd a team gets but when it comes down to it you just concede to rather support your local team. Kind of contradictory don't you think?

    But what you don`t understand being a swan is that my local side do get good crowds unlike yours ...........


    Been up the Arsenal to watch City and their home crowd were quiet and we showed them how a crowd gets behind a team .

    John you averaged 3k more than us. 3k. Can you honestly tell me right now that 19k to 22k is the difference between great support and poor support? And answer the question John, stop trying to deviate.

    JH - In fairness to the Jacks, their stadium is smaller than ours (20,532 against our 26,828), so unless our support drops off - or Huw builds them an extension - we will normally have bigger crowds than them.

    No bias in their favour just quoting the facts as shown on Wikipedia.

    Just sayin BB that we are getting more crowd than some small Prem teams ,now what would our attendance be like if we were in the Prem ,then again answering the question yes i would rather watch Cardiff in the Championship with our amazing 22000+ than lets say Man Yooooo at old trafford in front of 60,000+


    Facts are facts i agree BB and we will always be the biggest team in Wales ,mind blowing tho if we ever do go up innit .........................;O)

    Only until the owners increase the size of the stadium, and they've already proposed to do this.

    Exactly how are you the biggest team in Wales John? Isit because you currently have a bigger stadium than us? Does that mean that Coventry and Sheffield united are a bigger team than you right now? It can't be directly based on attendances because we sell a far higher percentage of our seats than you do so it must just be down to stadium size yes?

    John I was asking how exactly you are the biggest team then asked another question asking does that make Coventry and Sheffield united bigger than you, nothing to do with Wales in that question. Do keep up.
    'Ok son let's settle this.' You say that then just basically repeat what you said before with no case of argument or factual evidence. Your argument is flawed on so many levels and is so plain for everyone to see that I think I will bow down from here knowing that you are no longer capable of answering with sensible constructive debate.

    Cardiff Citys camp bonny ,biggest football club in Wales of course ...;o)

    why do you get so upset about our new multi millionare owners and what they are doing for us ,would you want to see another Welsh club go into addmin like you did twice?

    Also why try and deflect the post that why so many people that live in swansea basically see it as a dump ,does that upset you?....seems like
