Looking at a snapshot of attendances for Championship and League 1 clubs last night the difference between the two leagues is startling.
Championship average gate: 16,827
League 1 average gate; 5,552
Our gate of 12,221 is both surprising (higher than expected), and double/treble that of most of the others.
How on earth do L Orient (3,564), Oldham (3,496) and Scunthorpe (3,215) operate as a full time football club with players wages, overheads and other essential expenditure and appear to "exist" ie with no apparent threat of admin or liquidation.
It just shows how hamstrung CCFC is with regards to our very survival being reliant on a complex multi shared "ownership" whilst other clubs manage to scrape by with minimal interference by third parties and continue to thrive.
The mind boggles.
