The mathematics have been done and Villa fans, we’re sorry, but you’re bottom of another table…
The Boleyn Ground is rapidly approaching the end with West Ham United, but the fans are paying their respect with an England-high average attendance recorded at 99.8% (34,930/35,016) of its capacity filled each game.
Second are Norwich (99.7% – 27,030/27,108) with the Canaries relishing their first season back in the Premier League. Manchester United complete the top three (with 99.4% – 75,335/75,731).
West Brom, with a large majority of their fans reportedly unhappy with their style of football under Tony Pullis, come in 18th (91.0% – 24,348/26,768). Below them are Sunderland (86.0% – 42,150/49,000) and Aston Villa complete the bottom three, propping up the table (81.4% – 34,846/42,788).
Surprise league leaders Leicester City are 10th (98.5% – 32,013/32,500). Chelsea are 5th (99.2% – 41,517/41,841) even though this season has been an forgettable one for the Blues.
Other ‘top six’ sides include Arsenal in 4th (99.4% – 59,963/60,355), Manchester City in 7th (98.7% – 54,000/54,693), Tottenham in 9th (98.6% – 35,733/36,240) and Liverpool in 13th (97.1% – 44,058/45,362).
