WE AM ALBION - WillieJohnstonsGreenhouse - 29-05-2015
West Brom were the best supported Premier League club last season based on the percentage of their local town versus attendance figures.
With an average attendance of 25,801, the Baggies, when compared to the population of West Bromwich (75,405), it is revealed that a third (33.3%) of the town would be empty if they all attended a home game.
Though their season ended with relegation, Burnley can take some heart from being the second best 'pound for pound' supported club in the country. An average attendance of 19,158 combined with the town's population of 73,021 means that over a quarter (26.2%) of the town's population packed into Turf Moor every weekend.

Doesn't mean that 25,800 baggies came from the district though does it >>> go forward to 2,800 local and 23,000 coming from elsewhere - fact

Your Sarcasm is getting Cringeworthy now,
Its a head count attendance to the population of the town hence the
"It is revealed that a third (33.3%) of the town would be empty if they all attended a home game".
You need to read the article ,
Also if you think only 2,800 locals attend the home games ........................
Heads gone

No but the same rules have been applied to all the other teams hence you have a constant so the comparison is fair. Just enjoy it and stop being such a killjoy. Good grief.
