Its top 5 supported clubs in world who aren’t in the top league of their country. It’s a weird stat but since '73 it’s all we have to be proud of.

I was at the FA cup game at your place last season. Nearly died celebrating that offside goal at the end.

The main train companies in England are owned by DB.

The whole point is that they aren’t in the top flight but still get very large crowds. Its a good metric of how loyal the support is.

That’s actually not ture English clubs use tickets sold.

The difference is German match tickets are so much cheaper and their public transport is A LOT cheaper. (They own our railways companies and use the profits to subsides there own ticket prices for trains).
